Yes, me too :)

The stack is a nicer place to keep things. We only need one place to 
save the stack, then most things can come from there. There's actually 
more paca stuff we could move into local variables or onto the stack
too.

It was probably done like this because PR KVM which probably can't 
access the stack in real mode when running in an LPAR, and came across 
to the HV code that way. New path doesn't require it.

Putting it in C avoids having the asm code know about scratch areas.

I don't think it conflicts, but I think perhaps it should go in the 
patch which removed the real mode handlers.

kvmppc_handle_exit_hv is used by both HV paths so for now it's a bit 
neater to try get things into the same state, but we could do this in a 
later patch perhaps.

I use the 0x2 test in C in a later patch.

The IVEC+0x2 thing might just go away entirely though for new HV path, 
but we'd still clear it in C on the principle of minimal asm code.

Yes. For 64s you can use the __ variant though. We use it in other 
places in this function with L=1 so it doesn't make sense to mix 
variants.

Thanks,
