From b6fca72536fb94098acb23c00b4e65d3bc4bb252 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vineet Gupta Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2013 20:06:28 +0530 Subject: sysctl: Enable IA64 "ignore-unaligned-usertrap" to be used cross-arch IA64 defines /proc/sys/kernel/ignore-unaligned-usertrap to control verbose warnings on unaligned access emulation. Although the exact mechanics of what to do with sysctl (ignore/shout) are arch specific, this change enables the sysctl to be usable cross-arch.
