[PATCH] x86/ldt: correct ldt access in single stepping logic

Show all headers | View raw

Commit 37868fe113ff ("x86/ldt: Make modify_ldt synchronous") introduced
a new struct ldt_struct anchored at mm->context.ldt.

convert_ip_to_linear() was changed to reflect this, but indexing into
the ldt has to be changed as the pointer is no longer void *.
