   </TASK>

The task's CX register got corrupted by commit 8c42819b61 ("x86/entry:
Use PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS for compat"), which overlooked the fact that
compat SYSCALL apparently stores the user's CX value in BP.

Before that commit, CX was saved from its stashed value in BP:

	pushq   %rbp                    /* pt_regs->cx (stashed in bp) */

But then it got changed to:

	pushq	%rcx			/* pt_regs->cx */

So the wrong value got saved and later restored back to the user.  Fix
it by pushing the correct value again (BP) for regs->cx.

Fixes: 8c42819b61 ("x86/entry: Use PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS for compat")

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.

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.
