Early feedback: Various powerpc builds (defconfig, allmodconfig,
ppc64e_defconfig, cell_defconfig, maple_defconfig) fail with

arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S: Assembler messages:
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S:72: Error:
	.localentry expression for `flush_icache_range' does not evaluate to a constant

This appears to be due to 'powerpc/64: Fix flush_(d|i)cache_range() called from
modules'. No idea what is wrong with it, though; maybe some context patch is
missing. Copying the author and Michael.
