The sparc32 conversion to lock_mm_and_find_vma() in commita050ba1e74("mm/fault: convert remaining simple cases to lock_mm_and_find_vma()") missed the fact that we didn't actually have a 'regs' pointer available in the 'force_user_fault()' case. It's there in the regular page fault path ("do_sparc_fault()"), but not the window underflow/overflow paths. Which is all fine - we can just pass in a NULL pointer. The register state is only used to avoid deadlock with kernel faults, which is not the case for any of these register window faults.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
