Subject: [PATCH 06/12] powerpc/module: Rework is_early_mcount_callsite()
Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2016 01:28:29 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1456324115-21144-6-git-send-email-mpe@ellerman.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1456324115-21144-1-git-send-email-mpe@ellerman.id.au>

is_early_mcount_callsite() needs to detect either the two instruction or
the three instruction versions of the _mcount() sequence.

But if we're running a kernel with the two instruction sequence, we need
to be careful not to read instruction - 2, otherwise we might fall off
the front of a page and cause an oops.

While we're here convert to bool to make the return semantics clear.
