2.6.38-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: Will Deacon <[email protected]> commit e89c0d7090c54d7b11b9b091e495a1ae345dd3ff upstream. The DBGVCR, used for configuring vector catch debug events, is UNKNOWN out of reset on ARMv7. When enabling monitor mode, this must be zeroed to avoid UNPREDICTABLE behaviour. This patch adds the zeroing code to the debug reset path.
