Subject: PARISC: fix crash in flush_icache_page_asm on PA1.1
From: John David Anglin <[email protected]>
commit 207f583d7179f707f402c36a7bda5ca1fd03ad5b upstream.
As pointed out by serveral people, PA1.1 only has a type 26 instruction
meaning that the space register must be explicitly encoded. Not giving an
explicit space means that the compiler uses the type 24 version which is PA2.0
only resulting in an illegal instruction crash.
This regression was caused by
