[PATCH v4 4/5] powerpc/8xx: Use SPRG2 instead of DAR for saving r3

From: Christophe Leroy <hidden>
Date: 2015-02-04 14:49:19
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

We now have SPRG2 available as in it not used anymore for saving CR, so we don't
need to crash DAR anymore for saving r3 for CPU6 ERRATA handling.

Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <redacted>
