Revision 3ead7c52bdb0ab44f4bb1feed505a8323cc12ba7 authored by Amanieu d'Antras on 06 August 2015, 22:46:33 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 07 August 2015, 01:39:40 UTC
This function may copy the si_addr_lsb field to user mode when it hasn't
been initialized, which can leak kernel stack data to user mode.

Just checking the value of si_code is insufficient because the same
si_code value is shared between multiple signals.  This is solved by
checking the value of si_signo in addition to si_code.
