Unlike BUG_ON(x), WARN_ON(x) uses !!(x) as the trigger
of the t(d/w)nei instruction instead of using directly the

This commit has been processed because it contains a "Fixes:" tag,
fixing commit: 69d2480456d1 btrfs: use copy_page for copying pages instead of

is sub-optimal in regard of the capabilities of powerpc.
void test_warn1(unsigned long long a)
{
WARN_ON(a);
}
void test_warn2(unsigned long a)
{
WARN_ON(a);
}
void test_warn3(unsigned long a, unsigned long b)
