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?
What exact code do you build?
In my source there the SLB relon handler starts just above this line and a lot of out-ouf-line are handlers before. Moving some out-of-line handlers below the parts with fixed location should fix the build error.
Thanks
Michal
