commit 38a35a78c5 upstream.
Layout of coprocessor registers in the elf_xtregs_t and
xtregs_coprocessor_t may be different due to alignment. Thus it is not
always possible to copy data between the xtregs_coprocessor_t structure
and the elf_xtregs_t and get correct values for all registers.
Use a table of offsets and sizes of individual coprocessor register
groups to do coprocessor context copying in the ptrace_getxregs and
ptrace_setxregs.
This fixes incorrect coprocessor register values reading from the user
process by the native gdb on an xtensa core with multiple coprocessors
and registers with high alignment requirements.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
