Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Send SIGILL for linked branches in
 `__compute_return_epc_for_insn'
References: bnc#1060662
Patch-mainline: v4.12.4
Git-commit: fef40be6da856afead4177aaa9d869a66fb3381f

commit fef40be6da856afead4177aaa9d869a66fb3381f upstream.

Fix commit 319824eabc3f ("MIPS: kernel: branch: Do not emulate the
branch likelies on MIPS R6") and also send SIGILL rather than returning
-SIGILL for BLTZAL, BLTZALL, BGEZAL and BGEZALL instruction encodings no
longer supported in R6, except where emulated.  Returning -SIGILL is
never correct as the API defines this function's result upon error to be
-EFAULT and a signal actually issued.
