Subject: powerpc/64: Call setup_barrier_nospec() from setup_arch()
To: sta...@vger.kernel.org, gre...@linuxfoundation.org

Message-ID: <20190421142037.21881-37-...@ellerman.id.au>
From: Michael Ellerman <m...@ellerman.id.au>
commit af375eefbfb27cbb5b831984e66d724a40d26b5c upstream.
Currently we require platform code to call setup_barrier_nospec(). But
if we add an empty definition for the !CONFIG_PPC_BARRIER_NOSPEC case
then we can call it in setup_arch().
