[PATCH 00/10] powerpc/64s/exception: initial reworking of

[Nicholas Piggin]

This applies on top of the previous exception series.

Until now the focus was on making the code generation macros sane,
ironing out irregularities and needless differences in handlers,
and sharing code. Some change of generated code was required, but
minimised as much as possible.

This series begins to change generated code in a bigger way. This is
an assortment of changes, one of the big goals goals is really moving
code and especially branches and logic and conditional compilation
out of "unrelocated" interrupt entry points, with the hope of making
KASLR more effective when it is implemented.

After this is a more significant rework of the instruction sequences
with the aim of improving performance, but I will stop here for the
next merge window.

Thanks,
Nick
