Subject: powerpc/64s/radix: Fix radix segment exception handling
From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 7100e8704b61247649c50551b965e71d168df30b upstream.
Commit 48e7b76957 ("powerpc/64s/hash: Convert SLB miss handlers to C")
broke the radix-mode segment exception handler. In radix mode, this is
exception is not an SLB miss, rather it signals that the EA is outside
the range translated by any page table.
The commit lost the radix feature alternate code patch, which can
cause faults to some EAs to kernel BUG at arch/powerpc/mm/slb.c:639!
The original radix code would send faults to slb_miss_large_addr,
which would end up faulting due to slb_addr_limit being 0. This patch
sends radix directly to do_bad_slb_fault, which is a bit clearer.
