From: Anders Roxell <anders.roxell@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 8219d31effa7be5dbc7ff915d7970672e028c701 upstream. Building tinyconfig with gcc (Debian 11.2.0-16) and assembler (Debian 2.37.90.20220207) the following build error shows up: {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:10576: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stbcx.' {standard input}:10680: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lharx' {standard input}:10694: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lbarx' Rework to add assembler directives [1] around the instruction. The problem with this might be that we can trick a power6 into single-stepping through an stbcx. for instance, and it will execute that in kernel mode.
