[PATCH v2 15/43] powerpc/32: Tag DAR in EXCEPTION_PROLOG_2 for the 8xx

Christophe Leroy christophe.leroy at csgroup.eu
Tue Mar 9 23:09:41 AEDT 2021


8xx requires to tag the DAR with a magic value in order to
fixup DAR on faults generated by 'dcbX', as the 8xx
forgets to update the DAR for those faults.

Do the tagging as early as possible, that is before enabling MMU.
