    s390/ptrace: fix storage key handling · fd78c594
    Heiko Carstens authored
    The key member of the runtime instrumentation control block contains
    only the access key, not the complete storage key. Therefore the value
    must be shifted by four bits. Since existing user space does not
    necessarily query and set the access key correctly, just ignore the
    user space provided key and use the correct one.
    Note: this is only relevant for debugging purposes in case somebody
    compiles a kernel with a default storage access key set to a value not
    equal to zero.
