I've tracked the start of the strange instruction pointers in 'perf
report' to a commit by Anton:

    powerpc/perf: Move code to select SIAR or pt_regs into perf_read_regs

I don't know enough about PPC to know what's going on, but reverting
the changes to perf_instruction_pointer() gets me reasonable 'perf
report' output with 3.11.

This is an e300 core right ? (603...). Do that have an SIAR at all
(Scott ?)

Yes, e300c3.
