[PATCH v3 2/2] powerpc: Don't user thread struct for saving SRR0/1 on syscall.
From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Fri Jan 31 2020 - 06:34:59 EST
CR0 can be saved later, and CTR can also be used for saving.
Keep SRR1 in r9 and stash SRR0 in CTR, this avoids using
thread_struct in memory for that.
Saves 3 cycles (ie 1%) in null_syscall selftest on 8xx.
