      powerpc: Change analyse_instr so it doesn't modify *regs · 3cdfcbfd
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      The analyse_instr function currently doesn't just work out what an
      instruction does, it also executes those instructions whose effect
      is only to update CPU registers that are stored in struct pt_regs.
      This is undesirable because optprobes uses analyse_instr to work out
      if an instruction could be successfully emulated in future.
      
      This changes analyse_instr so it doesn't modify *regs; instead it
      stores information in the instruction_op structure to indicate what
      registers (GPRs, CR, XER, LR) would be set and what value they would
      be set to.  A companion function called emulate_update_regs() can
      then use that information to update a pt_regs struct appropriately.
      
      As a minor cleanup, this replaces inline asm using the cntlzw and
      cntlzd instructions with calls to __builtin_clz() and __builtin_clzl().
