Hi Tobin,

.llong is an undocumented PPC specific directive. The generic
equivalent is .quad, but even better (because it's self describing) is
.8byte.

Convert directives .llong -> .8byte

Thanks for tackling these!

I have applied your patch to my local tree. I ran `git grep '\.llong'`,
and found:

tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/switch_endian/switch_endian_test.S: .llong 0x5555AAAA5555AAAA

That file is also handled by mpe and the powerpc tree even though it
doesn't live in arch/powerpc - could you please change that one as well?
I can do that one when I apply it.
Excellent.

thanks,
Tobin.
