    [PATCH] ppc32/8xx: Fix r3 trashing due to 8MB TLB page instantiation
    
    Instantiation of 8MB pages on the TLB cache for the kernel static
    mapping trashes r3 register on !CONFIG_8xx_CPU6 configurations.
    This ensures r3 gets saved and restored.

    powerpc/32: Define an is_kernel_addr() to fix ARCH=ppc compilation
    
    My commit 6bfd93c32a5065d0e858780b3beb0b667081601c broke the ARCH=ppc
    compilation by using the is_kernel_addr() macro in asm/uaccess.h.
    This fixes it by defining a suitable is_kernel_addr() for ARCH=ppc.
