powerpc/eeh: Fix missing PE bridge reconfiguration during VFIO EEH recovery
VFIO EEH recovery for PCI passthrough devices fails on PowerNV and pseries
platforms due to missing host-side PE bridge reconfiguration. In the
current implementation, eeh_pe_configure() only performs RTAS or OPAL-based
bridge reconfiguration for native host devices, but skips it entirely for
PEs managed through VFIO in guest passthrough scenarios.
This leads to incomplete EEH recovery when a PCI error affects a
passthrough device assigned to a QEMU/KVM guest. Although VFIO triggers the
EEH recovery flow through VFIO_EEH_PE_ENABLE ioctl, the platform-specific
bridge reconfiguration step is silently bypassed. As a result, the PE's
config space is not fully restored, causing subsequent config space access
failures or EEH freeze-on-access errors inside the guest.
This patch fixes the issue by ensuring that eeh_pe_configure() always
invokes the platform's configure_bridge() callback (e.g.,
pseries_eeh_phb_configure_bridge) even for VFIO-managed PEs. This ensures
that RTAS or OPAL calls to reconfigure the PE bridge are correctly issued
on the host side, restoring the PE's configuration space after an EEH
event.
This fix is essential for reliable EEH recovery in QEMU/KVM guests using
VFIO PCI passthrough on PowerNV and pseries systems.
Tested with:
- QEMU/KVM guest using VFIO passthrough (IBM Power9,(lpar)Power11 host)
- Injected EEH errors with pseries EEH errinjct tool on host, recovery
verified on qemu guest.
- Verified successful config space access and CAP_EXP DevCtl restoration
after recovery

powerpc/kernel: Fix ppc_save_regs inclusion in build
Recent patch fixed an old commit
'fc2a5a6161a2 ("powerpc/64s: ppc_save_regs is now needed for all 64s builds")'
which is to include building of ppc_save_reg.c only when XMON
and KEXEC_CORE and PPC_BOOK3S are enabled. This was valid, since
ppc_save_regs was called only in replay_system_reset() of old
irq.c which was under BOOK3S.
But there has been multiple refactoring of irq.c and have
added call to ppc_save_regs() from __replay_soft_interrupts
-> replay_soft_interrupts which is part of irq_64.c included
under CONFIG_PPC64. And since ppc_save_regs is called in
CRASH_DUMP path as part of crash_setup_regs in kexec.h,
CONFIG_PPC32 also needs it.
So with this recent patch which enabled the building of
ppc_save_regs.c caused a build break when none of these
(XMON, KEXEC_CORE, BOOK3S) where enabled as part of config.
Patch to enable building of ppc_save_regs.c by defaults.

powerpc/pseries: Add a char driver for physical-attestation RTAS
The RTAS call ibm,physical-attestation is used to retrieve
information about the trusted boot state of the firmware and
hypervisor on the system, and also Trusted Platform Modules (TPM)
data if the system is TCG 2.0 compliant.
This RTAS interface expects the caller to define different command
structs such as RetrieveTPMLog, RetrievePlatformCertificat and etc,
in a work area with a maximum size of 4K bytes and the response
buffer will be returned in the same work area.
The current implementation of this RTAS function is in the user
space but allocation of the work area is restricted with the system
lockdown. So this patch implements this RTAS function in the kernel
and expose to the user space with open/ioctl/read interfaces.
PAPR (2.13+ 21.3 ibm,physical-attestation) defines RTAS function:
- Pass the command struct to obtain the response buffer for the
specific command.
- This RTAS function is sequence RTAS call and has to issue RTAS
call multiple times to get the complete response buffer (max 64K).
The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call with the sequence 1 and
the subsequent calls with the sequence number returned from the
previous calls.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a
/dev/papr-physical-attestation character device using the following
programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-physical-attestation");
int fd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_PHY_ATTEST_IOC_HANDLE,
struct papr_phy_attest_io_block);
- The user space defines the command struct and requests the
response for any command.
- Obtain the complete response buffer and returned the buffer as
blob to the command specific FD.
size = read(fd, buf, len);
- Can retrieve the response buffer once or multiple times until the
end of BLOB buffer.
Implemented this new kernel ABI support in librtas library for
system lockdown

rtas_get_dynamic_sensor() which uses /dev/mem access for work
area allocation but is restricted under system lockdown.
This patch provides an interface with new ioctl
PAPR_DYNAMIC_SENSOR_IOC_GET to the papr-indices character
driver which executes this HCALL and copies the sensor state
in the user specified ioctl buffer.

int fd = open("/dev/papr-indices", O_RDWR);
int ret = ioctl(fd, PAPR_DYNAMIC_SENSOR_IOC_GET,

- The user space specifies input parameters in

- Returned state for the specified sensor is copied to

powerpc/pseries: Add papr-indices char driver for ibm,get-indices
The RTAS call ibm,get-indices is used to obtain indices and
location codes for a specified indicator or sensor token. The
current implementation uses rtas_get_indices() API provided by
librtas library which allocates RMO buffer and issue this RTAS
call in the user space. But writable mapping /dev/mem access by
the user space is prohibited under system lockdown.
To overcome the restricted access in the user space, the kernel
provide interfaces to collect indices data from the hypervisor.
This patch adds papr-indices character driver and expose standard
interfaces such as open / ioctl/ read to user space in ways that
are compatible with lockdown.
PAPR (2.13 7.3.17 ibm,get-indices RTAS Call) describes the
following steps to retrieve all indices data:
- User input parameters to the RTAS call: sensor or indicator,
and indice type
- ibm,get-indices is sequence RTAS call which means has to issue
multiple times to get the entire list of indicators or sensors
of a particular type. The hypervisor expects the first RTAS call
with the sequence 1 and the subsequent calls with the sequence
number returned from the previous calls.
- The OS may not interleave calls to ibm,get-indices for different
indicator or sensor types. Means other RTAS calls with different
type should not be issued while the previous type sequence is in
progress. So collect the entire list of indices and copied to
buffer BLOB during ioctl() and expose this buffer to the user
space with the file descriptor.
- The hypervisor fills the work area with a specific format but
does not return the number of bytes written to the buffer.
Instead of parsing the data for each call to determine the data
length, copy the work area size (RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE) to
the buffer. Return work-area size of data to the user space for
each read() call.
Expose these interfaces to user space with a /dev/papr-indices
character device using the following programming model:
int devfd = open("/dev/papr-indices", O_RDONLY);
int fd = ioctl(devfd, PAPR_INDICES_IOC_GET,
struct papr_indices_io_block)
- Collect all indices data for the specified token to the buffer
char *buf = malloc(RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE);
length = read(fd, buf, RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE)
- RTAS_GET_INDICES_BUF_SIZE of data is returned to the user
space.
- The user space retrieves the indices and their location codes
from the buffer
- Should issue multiple read() calls until reaches the end of
BLOB buffer.
The read() should use the file descriptor obtained from ioctl to
get the data that is exposed to file descriptor. Implemented
support in librtas (rtas_get_indices()) for this new ABI for
system lockdown.

powerpc: enable dynamic preemption
Once the lazy preemption is supported, it would be desirable to change
the preemption models at runtime. So add support for dynamic preemption
using DYNAMIC_KEY.
::Tested lightly on Power10 LPAR
Performance numbers indicate that, preempt=none(no dynamic) and
preempt=none(dynamic) are close.

powerpc64/ftrace: fix module loading without patchable function entries
get_stubs_size assumes that there must always be at least one patchable
function entry, which is not always the case (modules that export data
but no code), otherwise it returns -ENOEXEC and thus the section header
sh_size is set to that value. During module_memory_alloc() the size is
passed to execmem_alloc() after being page-aligned and thus set to zero
which will cause it to fail the allocation (and thus module loading) as
__vmalloc_node_range() checks for zero-sized allocs and returns null:
[ 115.466896] module_64: cast_common: doesn't contain __patchable_function_entries.
[ 115.469189] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 115.469496] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 274 at mm/vmalloc.c:3778 __vmalloc_node_range_noprof+0x8b4/0x8f0
...
[ 115.478574] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
[ 115.479545] execmem: unable to allocate memory
Fix this by removing the check completely, since it is anyway not
helpful to propagate this as an error upwards.

Driver core updates for 6.15-rc1
Here is the big set of driver core updates for 6.15-rc1. Lots of stuff
happened this development cycle, including:
- kernfs scaling changes to make it even faster thanks to rcu
- bin_attribute constify work in many subsystems
- faux bus minor tweaks for the rust bindings
- rust binding updates for driver core, pci, and platform busses,
making more functionaliy available to rust drivers. These are all
due to people actually trying to use the bindings that were in 6.14.
- make Rafael and Danilo full co-maintainers of the driver core
codebase
- other minor fixes and updates.
This has been in linux-next for a while now, with the only reported
issue being some merge conflicts with the rust tree. Depending on which
tree you pull first, you will have conflicts in one of them. The merge
resolution has been in linux-next as an example of what to do, or can be
found here:

- The 6 patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from
Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses. This has caused a small amount of fallout - two or three issues were reported. In all cases the calling code was founf to be incorrect. - The 4 patch series "Some cleanup for memcg" from Chen Ridong implements some relatively monir cleanups for the memcontrol code. - The 17 patch series "mm: fixes for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand fixes a boatload of issues which David found then using device-exclusive PTE entries when THP is enabled. More work is needed, but this makes thins better - our own HMM selftests now succeed. - The 2 patch series "mm: zswap: remove z3fold and zbud" from Yosry Ahmed remove the z3fold and zbud implementations. They have been deprecated for half a year and nobody has complained. - The 5 patch series "mm: further simplify VMA merge operation" from Lorenzo Stoakes implements numerous simplifications in this area. No runtime effects are anticipated. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: remove redundant mmap_lock operations from process_madvise()" from SeongJae Park rationalizes the locking in the madvise() implementation. Performance gains of 20-25% were observed in one MADV_DONTNEED microbenchmark. - The 12 patch series "Tiny cleanup and improvements about SWAP code" from Baoquan He contains a number of touchups to issues which Baoquan noticed when working on the swap code. - The 2 patch series "mm: kmemleak: Usability improvements" from Catalin Marinas implements a couple of improvements to the kmemleak user-visible output. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon/paddr: fix large folios access and schemes handling" from Usama Arif provides a couple of fixes for DAMON's handling of large folios. - The 3 patch series "mm/damon/core: fix wrong and/or useless damos_walk() behaviors" from SeongJae Park fixes a few issues with the accuracy of kdamond's walking of DAMON regions. - The 3 patch series "expose mapping wrprotect, fix fb_defio use" from Lorenzo Stoakes changes the interaction between framebuffer deferred-io and core MM. No functional changes are anticipated - this is preparatory work for the future removal of page structure fields. - The 4 patch series "mm/damon: add support for hugepage_size DAMOS filter" from Usama Arif adds a DAMOS filter which permits the filtering by huge page sizes. - The 4 patch series "mm: permit guard regions for file-backed/shmem mappings" from Lorenzo Stoakes extends the guard region feature from its present "anon mappings only" state. The feature now covers shmem and file-backed mappings. - The 4 patch series "mm: batched unmap lazyfree large folios during reclamation" from Barry Song cleans up and speeds up the unmapping for pte-mapped large folios. - The 18 patch series "reimplement per-vma lock as a refcount" from Suren Baghdasaryan puts the vm_lock back into the vma. Our reasons for pulling it out were largely bogus and that change made the code more messy. This patchset provides small (0-10%) improvements on one microbenchmark. - The 5 patch series "Docs/mm/damon: misc DAMOS filters documentation fixes and improves" from SeongJae Park does some maintenance work on the DAMON docs. - The 27 patch series "hugetlb/CMA improvements for large systems" from Frank van der Linden addresses a pile of issues which have been observed when using CMA on large machines. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for unmapped pages" from SeongJae Park enables users of DMAON/DAMOS to filter my the page's mapped/unmapped status. - The 19 patch series "zsmalloc/zram: there be preemption" from Sergey Senozhatsky teaches zram to run its compression and decompression operations preemptibly. - The 12 patch series "selftests/mm: Some cleanups from trying to run them" from Brendan Jackman fixes a pile of unrelated issues which Brendan encountered while runnimg our selftests. - The 2 patch series "fs/proc/task_mmu: add guard region bit to pagemap" from Lorenzo Stoakes permits userspace to use /proc/pid/pagemap to determine whether a particular page is a guard page. - The 7 patch series "mm, swap: remove swap slot cache" from Kairui Song removes the swap slot cache from the allocation path - it simply wasn't being effective. - The 5 patch series "mm: cleanups for device-exclusive entries (hmm)" from David Hildenbrand implements a number of unrelated cleanups in this code. - The 5 patch series "mm: Rework generic PTDUMP configs" from Anshuman Khandual implements a number of preparatoty cleanups to the GENERIC_PTDUMP Kconfig logic. - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: auto-tune aggregation interval" from SeongJae Park implements a feedback-driven automatic tuning feature for DAMON's aggregation interval tuning. - The 5 patch series "Fix lazy mmu mode" from Ryan Roberts fixes some issues in powerpc, sparc and x86 lazy MMU implementations. Ryan did this in preparation for implementing lazy mmu mode for arm64 to optimize vmalloc. - The 2 patch series "mm/page_alloc: Some clarifications for migratetype fallback" from Brendan Jackman reworks some commentary to make the code easier to follow. - The 3 patch series "page_counter cleanup and size reduction" from Shakeel Butt cleans up the page_counter code and fixes a size increase which we accidentally added late last year. - The 3 patch series "Add a command line option that enables control of how many threads should be used to allocate huge pages" from Thomas Prescher does that.

Behaviour is made more consistent and the documention is updated accordingly. - The 5 patch series "Switch zswap to object read/write APIs" from Yosry Ahmed updates zswap to the new object read/write APIs and thus permits the removal of some legacy code from zpool and zsmalloc. - The 6 patch series "Some trivial cleanups for shmem" from Baolin Wang does as it claims. - The 20 patch series "fs/dax: Fix ZONE_DEVICE page reference counts" from Alistair Popple regularizes the weird ZONE_DEVICE page refcount handling in DAX, permittig the removal of a number of special-case checks. - The 4 patch series "refactor mremap and fix bug" from Lorenzo Stoakes is a preparatoty refactoring and cleanup of the mremap() code. - The 20 patch series "mm: MM owner tracking for large folios (!hugetlb) + CONFIG_NO_PAGE_MAPCOUNT" from David Hildenbrand reworks the manner in which we determine whether a large folio is known to be mapped exclusively into a single MM. - The 8 patch series "mm/damon: add sysfs dirs for managing DAMOS filters based on handling layers" from SeongJae Park adds a couple of new sysfs directories to ease the management of DAMON/DAMOS filters. - The 13 patch series "arch, mm: reduce code duplication in mem_init()" from Mike Rapoport consolidates many per-arch implementations of mem_init() into code generic code, where that is practical. - The 13 patch series "mm/damon/sysfs: commit parameters online via damon_call()" from SeongJae Park continues the cleaning up of sysfs access to DAMON internal data. - The 3 patch series "mm: page_ext: Introduce new iteration API" from Luiz Capitulino reworks the page_ext initialization to fix a boot-time crash which was observed with an unusual combination of compile and cmdline options. - The 8 patch series "Buddy allocator like (or non-uniform) folio split" from Zi Yan reworks the code to split a folio into smaller folios. The main benefit is lessened memory consumption: fewer post-split folios are generated. - The 2 patch series "Minimize xa_node allocation during xarry split" from Zi Yan reduces the number of xarray xa_nodes which are generated during an xarray split. - The 2 patch series "drivers/base/memory: Two cleanups" from Gavin Shan performs some maintenance work on the drivers/base/memory code. - The 3 patch series "Add tracepoints for lowmem reserves, watermarks and totalreserve_pages" from Martin Liu adds some more tracepoints to the page allocator code. - The 4 patch series "mm/madvise: cleanup requests validations and classifications" from SeongJae Park cleans up some warts which SeongJae observed during his earlier madvise work. - The 3 patch series "mm/hwpoison: Fix regressions in memory failure handling" from Shuai Xue addresses two quite serious regressions which Shuai has observed in the memory-failure implementation. - The 5 patch series "mm: reliable huge page allocator" from Johannes Weiner makes huge page allocations cheaper and more reliable by reducing fragmentation. - The 5 patch series "Minor memcg cleanups & prep for memdescs" from Matthew Wilcox is preparatory work for the future implementation of memdescs. - The 4 patch series "track memory used by balloon drivers" from Nico Pache introduces a way to track memory used by our various balloon drivers. - The 2 patch series "mm/damon: introduce DAMOS filter type for active pages" from Nhat Pham permits users to filter for active/inactive pages, separately for file and anon pages. - The 2 patch series "Adding Proactive Memory Reclaim Statistics" from Hao Jia separates the proactive reclaim statistics from the direct reclaim statistics. - The 2 patch series "mm/vmscan: don't try to reclaim hwpoison folio" from Jinjiang Tu fixes our handling of hwpoisoned pages within the reclaim code. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHQEABYKAB0WIQTTMBEPP41GrTpTJgfdBJ7gKXxAjgUCZ+nZaAAKCRDdBJ7gKXxA jsOWAPiP4r7CJHMZRK4eyJOkvS1a1r+TsIarrFZtjwvf/GIfAQCEG+JDxVfUaUSF Ee93qSSLR1BkNdDw+931Pu0mXfbnBw== =Pn2K -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'mm-stable-2025-03-30-16-52' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: - The series "Enable strict percpu address space checks" from Uros Bizjak uses x86 named address space qualifiers to provide compile-time checking of percpu area accesses.

Modules changes for 6.15-rc1
- Use RCU instead of RCU-sched
The mix of rcu_read_lock(), rcu_read_lock_sched() and preempt_disable()
in the module code and its users has been replaced with just
rcu_read_lock().
- The rest of changes are smaller fixes and updates.
The changes have been on linux-next for at least 2 weeks, with the RCU
cleanup present for 2 months. One performance problem was reported with the
RCU change when KASAN + lockdep were enabled, but it was effectively
addressed by the already merged

Updates for the VDSO infrastructure:
- Consolidate the VDSO storage
The VDSO data storage and data layout has been largely architecture
specific for historical reasons. That increases the maintenance effort
and causes inconsistencies over and over.
There is no real technical reason for architecture specific layouts and
implementations. The architecture specific details can easily be
integrated into a generic layout, which also reduces the amount of
duplicated code for managing the mappings.
Convert all architectures over to a unified layout and common mapping
infrastructure. This splits the VDSO data layout into subsystem
specific blocks, timekeeping, random and architecture parts, which
provides a better structure and allows to improve and update the
functionalities without conflict and interaction.
- Rework the timekeeping data storage
The current implementation is designed for exposing system timekeeping
accessors, which was good enough at the time when it was designed.
PTP and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) change that as there are
requirements to expose independent PTP clocks, which are not related to
system timekeeping.
Replace the monolithic data storage by a structured layout, which
allows to add support for independent PTP clocks on top while reusing
both the data structures and the time accessor implementations.

A treewide hrtimer timer cleanup
hrtimers are initialized with hrtimer_init() and a subsequent store to the callback pointer. This turned out to be suboptimal for the upcoming Rust integration and is obviously a silly implementation to begin with. This cleanup replaces the hrtimer_init(T); T->function = cb; sequence with hrtimer_setup(T, cb); The conversion was done with Coccinelle and a few manual fixups. Once the conversion has completely landed in mainline, hrtimer_init() will be removed and the hrtimer::function becomes a private member. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmff5jQTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoVvRD/wKtuwmiA66NJFgXC0qVq82A6fO3bY8 GBdbfysDJIbqGu5PTcULTbJ8qkqv3jeLUv6CcXvS4sZ7y/uJQl2lzf8yrD/0bbwc rLI6sHiPSZmK93kNVN4X5H7kvt7cE/DYC9nnEOgK3BY5FgKc4n9887d4aVBhL8Lv ODwVXvZ+xi351YCj7qRyPU24zt/p4tkkT1o2k4a0HBluqLI0D+V20fke9IERUL8r d1uWKlcn0TqYDesE8HXKIhbst3gx52rMJrXBJDHwFmG6v8Pj1fkTXCVpPo8QcBz8 OTVkpomN9f/Tx4+GZwhZOF86LhLL3OhxD6pT7JhFCXdmSGv+Ez8uyk1YZysM/XpV Juy/1yAcBpDIDkmhMFGdAAn48Nn9Fotty0r4je60zSEp1d/4QMXcFme29qr2JTUE iWnQ/HD6DxUjVHqy7CYvvo26Xegg1C7qgyOVt4PYZwAM1VKF5P3kzYTb4SAdxtop Tpji1sfW9QV08jqMNo6XntD32DSP9S2HqjO9LwBw700jnx2jjJ35fcJs6iodMOUn gckIZLMn3L0OoglPdyA5O7SNTbKE7aFiRKdnT/cJtR3Fa39Qu27CwC5gfiyuie9I Q+LG8GLuYSBHXAR+PBK4GWlzJ7Dn8k3eqmbnLeKpRMsU6ZzcttgA64xhaviN2wN0 iJbvLJeisXr3GA== =bYAX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'timers-cleanups-2025-03-23' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull timer cleanups from Thomas Gleixner: "A treewide hrtimer timer cleanup hrtimers are initialized with hrtimer_init() and a subsequent store to the callback pointer.

arch, mm: set max_mapnr when allocating memory map for FLATMEM
max_mapnr is essentially the size of the memory map for systems that use FLATMEM. There is no reason to calculate it in each and every architecture when it's anyway calculated in alloc_node_mem_map(). Drop setting of max_mapnr from architecture code and set it once in alloc_node_mem_map(). While on it, move definition of mem_map and max_mapnr to mm/mm_init.c so there won't be two copies for MMU and !MMU variants.

powerpc: Remove UDBG_RTAS_CONSOLE
The IBM Cell blade support was the last user of UDBG_RTAS_CONSOLE. Although it's still possible to build it via PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_UDBG_RTAS_CONSOLE, AFAIK it's not useful on any other platfoms, because only Cell and JS20 era machines provided the RTAS get/put-term-char functions. If anyone is using it or needs it we can always resurrect it from git.

powerpc/cell: Remove support for IBM Cell Blades
IBM Cell Blades used the Cell processor and the "blade" server form factor. They were sold as models QS20, QS21 & QS22 from roughly 2006 to 2012 [1]. They were used in a few supercomputers (eg. Roadrunner) that have since been dismantled, and were not that widely used otherwise. Until recently I still had a working QS22, which meant I was able to keep the platform support working, but unfortunately that machine has now died. I'm not aware of any users. If there is a user that wants to keep the upstream support working, we can look at bringing some of the code back as appropriate. See previous discussion at [2]. Remove the top-level config symbol PPC_IBM_CELL_BLADE, and then the dependent symbols PPC_CELL_NATIVE, PPC_CELL_COMMON, CBE_RAS, PPC_IBM_CELL_RESETBUTTON, PPC_IBM_CELL_POWERBUTTON, CBE_THERM, and AXON_MSI. Then remove the associated C files and headers, and trim unused header content (some is shared with PS3). Note that PPC_CELL_COMMON sounds like it would build code shared with PS3, but it does not. It's a relic from when code was shared between the Blade support and QPACE support. Most of the primary authors already have CREDITS entries, with the exception of Christian, so add one for him.

powerpc/static_call: Implement inline static calls
Implement inline static calls:
- Put a 'bl' to the destination function ('b' if tail call)
- Put a 'nop' when the destination function is NULL ('blr' if tail call)
- Put a 'li r3,0' when the destination is the RET0 function and not
a tail call.
If the destination is too far (over the 32Mb limit), go via the
trampoline.

powerpc: Prepare arch_static_call_transform() for supporting inline static calls
Reorganise arch_static_call_transform() in order to ease the support of inline static calls in following patch: - remove 'target' to nhide whether it is a 'return 0' or not. - Don't bail out if 'tramp' is NULL, just do nothing until next patch. Note that 'target' was 'tramp + PPC_SCT_RET0', is_short was perforce true. So in the 'if (func && !is_short)' leg, target was perforce equal to 'func'.
