powerpc: Fix "attempt to move .org backwards" error
Building a 64-bit powerpc kernel with PR KVM enabled currently gives this error: AS arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S: Assembler messages: arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64s.S:258: Error: attempt to move .org backwards make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.o] Error 1 This happens because the MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro turns into 33 instructions, but we only have space for 32 at the decrementer interrupt vector (from 0x900 to 0x980). In the code generated by the MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES macro, we currently have two instances of the HMT_MEDIUM macro, which has the effect of setting the SMT thread priority to medium. One is the first instruction, and is overwritten by a no-op on processors where we save the PPR (processor priority register), that is, POWER7 or later. The other is after we have saved the PPR. In order to reduce the code at 0x900 by one instruction, we omit the first HMT_MEDIUM. On processors without SMT this will have no effect since HMT_MEDIUM is a no-op there. On POWER5 and RS64 machines this will mean that the first few instructions take a little longer in the case where a decrementer interrupt occurs when the hardware thread is running at low SMT priority. On POWER6 and later machines, the hardware automatically boosts the thread priority when a decrementer interrupt is taken if the thread priority was below medium, so this change won't make any difference. The alternative would be to branch out of line after saving the CFAR. However, that would incur an extra overhead on all processors, whereas the approach adopted here only adds overhead on older threaded processors.
