[RESEND][PATCH] Fix BUG_ON() reporting in real mode on PPC
From: Balbir Singh <bsingharora@gmail.com>
Date: 2016-02-18 00:20:22
Resending to remove whitespace issues created by email client
Changelog:
Don't add PAGE_OFFSET blindly, check if REGION_ID is 0
I ran into this issue while debugging an early boot problem.
The system hit a BUG_ON() but report bug failed to print the
line number and file name. The reason being that the system
was running in real mode and report_bug() searches for
addresses in the PAGE_OFFSET+ region
