Subject: [PATCH 01/10] ptrace: Use copy_siginfo in setsiginfo and getsiginfo
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Now that copy_siginfo copies all of the fields this is safe, safer (as
all of the bits are guaranteed to be copied), clearer, and less error
prone than using a structure copy.
