[PATCH 5.9 488/757] powerpc/security: Fix link stack flush instruction

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Oct 27 2020 - 12:19:42 EST


From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 792254a77201453d9a77479e63dc216ad90462d2 ]

The inline execution path for the hardware assisted branch flush
instruction failed to set CTR to the correct value before bcctr,
causing a crash when the feature is enabled.

Fixes: 4d24e21cc694 ("powerpc/security: Allow for processors that flush the link stack using the special bcctr")
