If I'm doing that, wouldn't it make more sense to write:
+static inline void abort_tm(int local)
+{
+#ifdef CONFIG_PPC_TRANSACTIONAL_MEM
+ if (local && cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_TM) &&
+ current->thread.regs &&
+ MSR_TM_ACTIVE(current->thread.regs->msr)) {
+ tm_enable();
+ tm_abort(TM_CAUSE_TLBI);
+ }
+#endif
+}
