[PATCH 2/3] Add retval_value helper (updated)

From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli
Date: Tue Aug 22 2006 - 01:24:44 EST


From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add the return_value() macro to extract the return value in an
architecture agnostic manner, given the pt_regs.

Other architecture maintainers may want to add similar helpers.
