[PATCH v4 3/3] powerpc/process: Constify the number of insns printed by show instructions functions.

From: Christophe Leroy <hidden>
Date: 2018-10-06 16:51:27
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

instructions_to_print var is assigned value 16 and there is no
way to change it.

This patch replaces it by a constant.
