2020-05-18	powerpc: Add prefixed instructions to instruction data type	Jordan Niethe	1	-0/+2
	For powerpc64, redefine the ppc_inst type so both word and prefixed instructions can be represented. On powerpc32 the type will remain the same. Update places which had assumed instructions to be 4 bytes long.

Use CONFIG_PPC64 not __powerpc64__ in a few places. Address other comments from Christophe. Fix some sparse complaints.] Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200506034050.24806-24-jniethe5@gmail.com
2020-05-18	powerpc/xmon: Move breakpoints to text section	Jordan Niethe	1	-0/+9
	The instructions for xmon's breakpoint are stored bpt_table[] which is in the data section. This is problematic as the data section may be marked as no execute. Move bpt_table[] to the text section.
