[PATCH 02/15] MIPS: traps: Make sure secondary cores have a sane ebase register

From: Paul Burton
Date: Tue Feb 02 2016 - 22:16:55 EST


From: Markos Chandras <markos.chandras@xxxxxxxxxx>

We shouldn't trust that the secondary cores will have a sane ebase register
(either from the bootloader or during the hardware design phase) so use the
ebase address as calculated by the boot CPU.
