The change moving addr_lsb into the _sigfault union failed to take into account that _sigfault._addr_bnd._lower being a pointer forced the entire union to have pointer alignment. In practice this only mattered for the offset of si_pkey which is why this has taken so long to discover. To correct this change _dummy_pkey and _dummy_bnd to have pointer type.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
