commit c7e814628df65f424fe197dde73bfc67e4a244d7 upstream.
Use 64-bit accesses for 64-bit floating-point general registers with
PTRACE_PEEKUSR, removing the truncation of their upper halves in the
FR=1 mode, caused by commit bbd426f542cb ("MIPS: Simplify FP context
access"), which inadvertently switched them to using 32-bit accesses.
The PTRACE_POKEUSR side is fine as it's never been broken and continues
using 64-bit accesses.

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.
