The first patch is a clean up of the FSCR handling. The second patch adds the actual ldmx support to the kernel. The third patch is a couple of ldmx selftests. v7: - Suggestions from the "prestigious" mpe. - PATCH 1/3: - Use current->thread.fscr rather than what the hardware gives us. - PATCH 2/3: - Use current->thread.fscr rather than what the hardware gives us. - PATCH 3/3: - no change. v6: - PATCH 1/3: - Suggestions from mpe. - Init the FSCR using existing INIT_THREAD macro rather than init_fscr() function. - Set fscr when taking DSCR exception in facility_unavailable_exception(). - PATCH 2/3: - Remove erroneous semicolons in restore_sprs(). - PATCH 3/3: - no change. v5: - PATCH 1/3: - Change FSCR cleanup more extensive. - PATCH 2/3: - Moves FSCR_LM clearing to new init_fscr(). - PATCH 3/3: - Added test cases to .gitignore. - Removed test again PPC_FEATURE2_EBB since it's not needed. - Added parenthesis on input parameter usage for LDMX() macro.
