Fix: One-line change from upstream. Only needed for 4.15+. Test Case: The glibc testsuite contains test cases, which currently fail with 4.15. Regression Potential: Minimal as this is a small, obvious bug fix for a single architecture. --- As pointed out in the glibc bug[1], there's a kernel bug preventing unwinding due to an incorrect pointer being copied to userspace. A 1-line patch[2] has been committed to Linus's tree to fix this. I investigated, and this only affects 4.15, so we only need this applied to bionic.
