[PATCH] powerpc/ptrace: Make user_mode() common to PPC32 and PPC64

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Tue Aug 17 2021 - 12:00:23 EST


Today we have:

#ifdef __powerpc64__
#define user_mode(regs) ((((regs)->msr) >> MSR_PR_LG) & 0x1)
#else
#define user_mode(regs) (((regs)->msr & MSR_PR) != 0)
#endif

With ppc64_defconfig, we get:

if (!user_mode(regs))
14b4: e9 3e 01 08 ld r9,264(r30)
14b8: 71 29 40 00 andi. r9,r9,16384
14bc: 41 82 07 a4 beq 1c60 <.emulate_instruction+0x7d0>

If taking the ppc32 definition of user_mode(), the exact same code
is generated for ppc64_defconfig.

So, only keep one version of user_mode(), preferably the one not
using MSR_PR_LG which should be kept internal to reg.h.
