Ubuntu & Fedora both have cross compilers packaged, or there's cross
compilers on kernel.org. But I assume you mean you'd rather not bother
compiling for powerpc, which is fair enough.
Do you mean something like below?
I'm not sure about that, as it would prevent sparse from checking the
actual BUG_ON code we're using, vs the generic version which we never
use on 64-bit. Is there a smatch specific macro we could check?
cheers
