Analyze and fix the following issue in the Linux kernel code: [POWERPC] spufs: Fix update of mailbox status register during backed wbox write
Problem Details: When a process writes into the inbound spu mailbox (wbox) while the context is saved, we accidentally break the contents of the mb_stat_R register by clearing other entries of the mailbox status register. This can cause the user side to hang. This change fixes the problem by only altering the appropri...
