This fixes vio_find_name() in arch/powerpc/kernel/vio.c, which is
currently broken because it tries to use devices_subsys. That is bad
for two reasons: (1) it's doing (or trying to do) a scan of all
devices when it should only be scanning those on the vio bus, and
(2) devices_subsys was an interna

Without this patch the linker will generate a section
named .sched.text.1 which is unexpected.
This is because the gcc generated section has "ax" but the
assembler usage of .sched.text lacks the "ax" specifier.
It would be better to have a definition we could use from
assembler code but I did not
ld will generate an unique named section when assembler do not
use "ax" but gcc does. Add the misisng annotation.

It seems to be rather a scheduler issue than a governor issue b/c
the issue went away after unsetting CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.
If I unselect CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED then the %CPU value raises 80%

Hello,
I was having problems with these FreedomLine cards with Linux before but
tested it thoroughly today. This card uses DEC 21041 chip and has TP and BNC
connectors:
