[PATCH v7 06/28] powerpc: Use a macro for creating instructions from u32s

Mon May 4 15:54:41 AEST 2020


I haven't reviewed our existing code to figure out if we've caught all places a 
unsigned int is used as an instruction, but what's here looks correct and I 
assume any missed cases will likely get caught by the compiler when the 
datatype is actually introduced. At least past experience trying to build this 
series suggests that assumption is reasonably accurate :-)

Michael - this requires a minor fix up when merged on top of Ravi's 2nd DAWR 
series, let me know if you need it.
