MN10300: Fix ret_from_kernel_thread
ret_from_kernel_thread needs to set A2 to the thread_info pointer before jumping to syscall_exit. Without this, we never correctly start userspace. This was caused by the rejuggling of the fork/exec paths in commit ddf23e87a804 ("mn10300: switch to saner kernel_execve() semantics") Reported-by: Ken Cox <jkc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Acked-by: Ken Cox <jkc@redhat.com> Acked-by: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
