    sh: boot kernel with SR.BL set · 68a1aed7
    Magnus Damm 提交于
    Update the SH kernel to keep SR.BL set until the VBR
    register has been initialized. Useful to allow boot
    of the kernel even though exceptions are pending.
    
    Without this patch there is a window of time when
    exceptions such as NMI are enabled but no exception
    handlers are installed.
    
    This patch modifies both the zImage loader and the
    actual kernel to boot with BL=1, but the zImage
    loader is modfied in such a way that the init_sr
    value is unchanged to not break the zImage loader
    provided by kexec.
    
    Tested on sh7724 Ecovec and on the SH4AL-DSP core
    included in sh7372.
