      [POWERPC] Flush registers to proper task context · 0ee6c15e
      Kumar Gala authored
      When we flush register state for FP, Altivec, or SPE in flush_*_to_thread
      we need to respect the task_struct that the caller has passed to us.
      
      Most cases we are called with current, however sometimes (ptrace) we may
      be passed a different task_struct.
      
      This showed up when using gdbserver debugging a simple program that used
      floating point. When gdb tried to show the FP regs they all showed up as
      0, because the child's FP registers were never properly flushed to memory.
