[PATCH v2 2/5] powerpc/signal: Include the new stack frame inside the user access block

Tue Aug 24 01:35:52 AEST 2021


Include the new stack frame inside the user access block and set it up
using unsafe_put_user().

On an mpc 8321 (book3s/32) the improvment is about 4% on a process
sending a signal to itself.
