Unfortunately, this patch causes one of my qemu emulations to crash.
The crash is not always seen, but at least with every other boot attempt.
Reverting the patch fixes the problem. Crash log and bisect results
are attached below.

For reference, here is the qemu command line. This is with qemu 3.1.

qemu-system-ppc -kernel vmlinux -M virtex-ml507 -m 256 -no-reboot \
-initrd rootfs.cpio \
-dtb arch/powerpc/boot/dts/virtex440-ml507.dtb \
--append 'rdinit=/sbin/init panic=-1 mem=256M console=ttyS0' \
-monitor none -nographic

Configuration is 44x/virtex5_defconfig with various debug options
enabled.
