x86: fix math_emu register frame access
do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless of configuration in the current code. This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate() like normal C functions do. This way, unless gcc makes a copy of struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler used. This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it somewhat working. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
