Martin Schwidefsky 778959db97 [PATCH] s390: ptrace peek and poke
The special cases of peek and poke on acrs[15] and the fpc register are not
handled correctly.  A poke on acrs[15] will clobber the 4 bytes after the
access registers in the thread_info structure.  That happens to be the kernel
stack pointer.  A poke on the fpc with an invalid value is not caught by the
validity check.  On the next context switch the broken fpc value will cause a
program check in the kernel.  Improving the checks in peek and poke fixes
this.
