[PATCH] powerpc: Fix emulation of illegal instructions on PowerNV platform

2013-06-14 Thread Paul Mackerras
Normally, the kernel emulates a few instructions that are unimplemented on some processors (e.g. the old dcba instruction), or privileged (e.g. mfpvr). The emulation of unimplemented instructions is currently not working on the PowerNV platform. The reason is that on these machines, unimplemented
