This restores some dmesg to what folks had in 2.6.22,

Threads also have an exit code on their own, so report it in
TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_PID.
For TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_TGID, instead of relying only on the exit code of the
leader, we use task->signal->group_exit_code if not null as suggested by
Oleg Nesterov.
Also, document that as of this patch, fill_thre
fill_thread_group() may want to know if it is filling TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_TGID
or TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_PID stats, so give it this information in the tg_stats
boolean.

We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.22.7 kernel.
It contains a single security bugfix for the x86_64 architecture.
There is potential for local privilege escalation, so all x86_64 users
are certainly encouraged to upgrade.

Right now register edi is just cleared before calling do_exit.
That is wrong because correct return value will be ignored.
Value from rax should be copied to rdi instead of clearing edi.

One more of these issues (which were considered fixed a few releases
back): Other than on x86-64, i386 allows set_fixmap() to replace
already present mappings. Consequently, on PAE, care must be taken to
not update the high half of a pte while the low half i
