I did some more testing, including toggling 
/sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/count_cache_flush and checking the code in xmon 
before:
c00000000000db58  7ee00026      mfcr    r23
c00000000000db5c  fae101a0      std     r23,416(r1)
c00000000000db60  f8230000      std     r1,0(r3)
c00000000000db64  4bffdb1d      bl      c00000000000b680        # 
flush_count_cache+0x0/0x2480

and after:
c00000000000db58  7ee00026      mfcr    r23
c00000000000db5c  fae101a0      std     r23,416(r1)
c00000000000db60  f8230000      std     r1,0(r3)
c00000000000db64  60000000      nop

All looks correct.  Thanks for flipping the tag, I think it looks good.
I'll run some regression on it now, too.
