Christian Borntraeger d3f468963c s390/entry.S: fix spurious zeroing of r0
when a system call is interrupted we might call the critical section
cleanup handler that re-does some of the operations. When we are between
.Lsysc_vtime and .Lsysc_do_svc we might also redo the saving of the
problem state registers r0-r7:

.Lcleanup_system_call:
[...]
0:      # update accounting time stamp
        mvc     __LC_LAST_UPDATE_TIMER(8),__LC_SYNC_ENTER_TIMER
        # set up saved register r11
        lg      %r15,__LC_KERNEL_STACK
        la      %r9,STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD(%r15)
        stg     %r9,24(%r11)            # r11 pt_regs pointer
        # fill pt_regs
        mvc     __PT_R8(64,%r9),__LC_SAVE_AREA_SYNC
--->    stmg    %r0,%r7,__PT_R0(%r9)

The problem is now, that we might have already zeroed out r0.
The fix is to move the zeroing of r0 after sysc_do_svc.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
