3.5.7.2 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro at ZenIV.linux.org.uk>

commit 441a179dafc0f99fc8b3a8268eef66958621082e upstream.

int sys32_rt_sigprocmask(int how, compat_sigset_t __user *set, compat_sigset_t __user *oset,
                                    unsigned int sigsetsize)
{
        sigset_t old_set, new_set;
        int ret;

        if (set && get_sigset32(set, &new_set, sigsetsize))

...
static int
get_sigset32(compat_sigset_t __user *up, sigset_t *set, size_t sz)
{
        compat_sigset_t s;
        int r;

        if (sz != sizeof *set) panic("put_sigset32()");

In other words, rt_sigprocmask(69, (void *)69, 69) done by 32bit process
will promptly panic the box.
