ppc64 qemu test failure since commit f9aa67142 ("powerpc/64s: Consolidate Alignment 0x600 interrupt")

[Guenter Roeck]

Nicholas,

some of my qemu tests for ppc64 started failing on mainline (and -next).
You can find a test log at
http://kerneltests.org/builders/qemu-ppc64-master/builds/580/steps/qemubuildcommand/logs/stdio

The scripts to run the test are available at
https://github.com/groeck/linux-build-test/tree/master/rootfs/ppc64

Bisect points to commit f9aa67142ef26 ("powerpc/64s: Consolidate Alignment 0x600
interrupt"). Bisect log is attached.

Since I don't have the means to run the code on a real system, I have no idea
if the problem is caused by qemu or by the code. It is interesting, though, that
only the 'mac99' tests are affected.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help tracking down the
problem.

Thanks,
Guenter
