powerpc: Fix DAR reporting when alignment handler faults
BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1721477 commit f9effe92 upstream. Anton noticed that if we fault part way through emulating an unaligned instruction, we don't update the DAR to reflect that. The DAR value is eventually reported back to userspace as the address in the SEGV signal, and if userspace is using that value to demand fault then it can be confused by us not setting the value correctly. This patch is ugly as hell, but is intended to be the minimal fix and back ports easily. Signed-off-by:Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Reviewed-by:
