Hey Stephen,

Thanks for that, it's due to .noinstr section being put on the other 
side of .text, so all our interrupt handler asm code can't reach them 
directly anymore since the ppc interrupt wrappers patch added noinstr
attribute.

That's not strictly required though, we've used NOKPROBE_SYMBOL okay
until now. If you can take this patch for now, it should get 
allyesconfig to build again. I'll fix it in the powerpc tree before the 
merge window.

Thanks,
Nick
