I don't know what this bit pattern is supposed to represent - is it
supposed to be the smallest 32bit integer and the smallest 64bit
integer 8000000080000000 - so you test 32 and 64 bit overflow at the
same time? 


For the series:
Tested-by: Daniel Axtens <dja at axtens.net> # Power8 LE

I notice the output is quite verbose, and doesn't include a line when it
starts:

[    0.826181] Running code patching self-tests ...
[    0.826607] Running feature fixup self-tests ...
[    0.826615] nop     : R0 = LONG_MAX                                      [PASS]
[    0.826617] add     : RA = LONG_MIN, RB = LONG_MIN                       [PASS]

Maybe it would be good to include a line saying "Running single-step
emulation self-tests" and perhaps by default on printing when there is a
failure.

Finally, I think you might be able to squash patches 1 and 2 and patches
4 and 5, but that's just my personal preference.

Regards,
Daniel
