Make interrupt handlers all just take the pt_regs * argument and load
DAR/DSISR etc from that. Make those that return a value return long.

I like this, it will likely simplify a bit the VMAP_STACK mess.

Not sure it is that easy. My board is stuck after the start of init.


On the 8xx, on Instruction TLB Error exception, we do

        andis.  r5,r9,DSISR_SRR1_MATCH_32S@h /* Filter relevant SRR1 bits */

On book3s/32, on ISI exception we do:
        andis.  r5,r9,DSISR_SRR1_MATCH_32S@h /* Filter relevant SRR1 bits */

On 40x and bookE, on ISI exception we do:
        li      r5,0                    /* Pass zero as arg3 */


And regs->dsisr will just contain nothing

So it means we should at least write back r5 into regs->dsisr from there ? The performance impact should be minimal as we already write _DAR so the cache line should already be in the cache.

A hacky 'stw r5, _DSISR(r1)' in handle_page_fault() does the trick, allthough we don't want to do it for both ISI and DSI at the end, so you'll have to do it in every head_xxx.S


While you are at it, it would probably also make sense to do remove the address param of bad_page_fault(), there is no point in loading back regs->dar in handle_page_fault() and machine_check_8xx() and alignment_exception(), just read regs->dar in bad_page_fault()

The case of do_break() should also be looked at.

Why changing return code from int to long ?

This is done to make the function signatures match more closely, which
will help with a future patch to add wrappers. Explicit arguments could
be re-added for performance in future but that would require more
complex wrapper macros.
