[Test case]
Simply boot the kernel in a ppc64 vm.
[Fix]
Bisecting the problem shows that the commit that introduced the bug is
the following:
baa49d81a94b ("powerpc/pseries: hvcall stack frame overhead")
To fix the problem we just need to revert this commit and also the
following (because we need to re-introduce STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD):
dfecd06bc552 ("powerpc: remove STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD")
[Regression potential]
This restores a previous behavior on powerpc and without this it's
impossible to boot. However, we are likely to get a proper fix
upstream, so reverting the commit should be considered only as a
temporary workaround, until we get a proper upstream fix.
