Thank you!
Hi Linus, Please pull a few important fixes for the parisc architecture for 6.8-rc3: The current exception handler, which helps on kernel accesses to userspace, may exhibit data corruption. The problem is that it is not guaranteed that the compiler will use the processor register we specified in the source code, but may choose another register which then will lead to silent register- and data corruption. To fix this issue we now use another strategy to help the exception handler to always find and set the error code into the correct CPU register. The other fixes are small: fixing CPU hotplug bringup, fix the page alignment of the RO_DATA section, added a check for the calculated cache stride and fix possible hangups when printing longer output at bootup when running on serial console. Most of the patches are tagged for stable series. Thanks!
