I see multiple instances of:

in v4.4.y.queue (v4.4.179-143-gc4db218e9451).

This is due to commit 9b2d4e06d7f1 ("powerpc/64s: Add support for a store forwarding barrier at kernel entry/exit"), which is part of a large patch series and can not easily be reverted.

Guess I'll stop doing ppc:allmodconfig builds in v4.4.y ?

Michael, I thought this patch series was supposed to fix ppc issues, not add to them :)

Any ideas on what to do here?

thanks,
