Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/64: Fix kernel stack 16-byte alignment
Date: Thu, 15 Nov 2018 12:34:27 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181115023427.31033-1-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)

Commit 4c2de74cc869 ("powerpc/64: Interrupts save PPR on stack rather
than thread_struct") changed sizeof(struct pt_regs) % 16 from 0 to 8,
which causes the interrupt frame allocation on kernel entry to put the
kernel stack out of alignment.

Add a pad field to fix alignment, and add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch this
in future.

Fixes: 4c2de74cc869 ("powerpc/64: Interrupts save PPR on stack rather
than thread_struct")
