If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 3e96ca7f007ddb06b82a74a68585d1dbafa85ff1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Neuling <mikey@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2013 15:30:57 +0000 Subject: powerpc: Fix hardware IRQs with MMU on exceptions when HV=0 From: Michael Neuling <mikey@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 3e96ca7f007ddb06b82a74a68585d1dbafa85ff1 upstream. POWER8 allows us to take interrupts with the MMU on. This gives us a second set of vectors offset at 0x4000. Unfortunately when coping these vectors we missed checking for MSR HV for hardware interrupts (0x500). This results in us trying to use HSRR0/1 when HV=0, rather than SRR0/1 on HW IRQs The below fixes this to check CPU_FTR_HVMODE when patching the code at 0x4500. Also we remove the check for CPU_FTR_ARCH_206 since relocation on IRQs are only available in arch 2.07 and beyond. Thanks to benh for helping find this.
