      powerpc: Use LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE only for constants on 64-bit · e31aa453
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      Using LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE to get the address of kernel symbols
      generates 5 instructions where LOAD_REG_ADDR can do it in one,
      and will generate R_PPC64_ADDR16_* relocations in the output when
      we get to making the kernel as a position-independent executable,
      which we'd rather not have to handle.  This changes various bits
      of assembly code to use LOAD_REG_ADDR when we need to get the
      address of a symbol, or to use suitable position-independent code
      for cases where we can't access the TOC for various reasons, or
      if we're not running at the address we were linked at.
      
      It also cleans up a few minor things; there's no reason to save and
      restore SRR0/1 around RTAS calls, __mmu_off can get the return
      address from LR more conveniently than the caller can supply it in
      R4 (and we already assume elsewhere that EA == RA if the MMU is on
      in early boot), and enable_64b_mode was using 5 instructions where
      2 would do.
