So why didn't this happen from the beginning?
Ask Kumar.
Why the change?
So we can remove this hack in kvm_asm.h:
/*
* TODO: Unify 32-bit and 64-bit kernel exception handlers to use same
defines
*/
#define BOOKE_INTERRUPT_SPE_UNAVAIL BOOKE_INTERRUPT_SPE_ALTIVEC_UNAVAIL
#define BOOKE_INTERRUPT_SPE_FP_DATA
BOOKE_INTERRUPT_SPE_FP_DATA_ALTIVEC_ASSIST
#define BOOKE_INTERRUPT_ALTIVEC_UNAVAIL
BOOKE_INTERRUPT_SPE_ALTIVEC_UNAVAIL
#define BOOKE_INTERRUPT_ALTIVEC_ASSIST \
BOOKE_INTERRUPT_SPE_FP_DATA_ALTIVEC_ASSIST
It was added as a compilation fix, and it was less intrusive to
temporarily fix it this way.
I am curious why the above code wasn't removed at the end of this
patchset. :-)
