Looks good, and the patch below does fix the oops for me.

task_pt_regs() can return NULL for kernel threads, so add a check.
This fixes an oops at boot on ppc64.

Can we get this merged please? It's blocking all my boot tests.

If anyone's bothered:

Fixes: d740037fac70 ("sched/cpuacct: Split usage accounting into user_usage and sys_usage")

Could someone please re-send the fix, because it has not reached me nor lkml.

Thanks,

It did hit LKML:

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20160406215950.04bc3f0b@kryten

But that did have some verbiage at the top.

Anton's also resent it directly To you.

So it was in my Spam folder, due to the following SPF softfail:

  Received-SPF: softfail (google.com: domain of transitioning anton@samba.org does not designate 198.145.29.136 as permitted sender) client-ip=198.145.29.136;

have the patch now.

Thanks,
