The start_thread function in arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c in the Linux
kernel through 4.6.3 on powerpc platforms mishandles transactional state,
which allows local users to cause a denial of service (invalid process
state or TM Bad Thing exception, and system crash) or possibly have
unspecified other impact by starting and suspending a transaction before an
exec system call.
