[ Upstream commit2f819db565] The regset API documented in <linux/regset.h> defines -ENODEV as the result of the `->active' handler to be used where the feature requested is not available on the hardware found. However code handling core file note generation in `fill_thread_core_info' interpretes any non-zero result from the `->active' handler as the regset requested being active. Consequently processing continues (and hopefully gracefully fails later on) rather than being abandoned right away for the regset requested. Fix the problem then by making the code proceed only if a positive result is returned from the `->active' handler. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
