I've also sent a patch that fixes the link error on ARM and that should
work on all other architectures too.
In case of avr32 signalfd_read() fails. Does your patch help with it as well?
P.S. Bisecting shows same culprit: 150a0b4905f1 ("aio: add support for
async openat()")
I don't know. What is the symptom on avr32? My patch only removes the
get_user() instances on 64-bit values and replaces them with a
single copy_from_user() call.
Which is the wrong fix. Arch code should be able to handle 64 bit values
in all the get/put_user() variants. We use 64 bit variables all over the
place in interfaces to userspace.
