[PATCH 2.4.2x, 2.6.x][PPC32] don't recursively crash in die() on CHRP/PReP machines
From: Jakub Bogusz
Date: Thu Dec 02 2004 - 05:33:10 EST
This patch avoids recursive crash (leading to kernel stack overflow) in
die() on CHRP/PReP machines when CONFIG_PMAC_BACKLIGHT=y.
set_backlight_* functions are placed in pmac section, which is discarded
when _machine != _MACH_Pmac.
Should apply to latest 2.4.x and 2.6.x as well.
