[PATCH 11/17] powerpc: add a define for the switch frame size and regs offset

Nicholas Piggin npiggin at gmail.com
Sun Nov 27 23:49:36 AEDT 2022


This is open-coded in process.c, ppc32 uses a different define with the
same value, and the C definition is name differently which makes it an
extra indirection to grep for.
