[PATCH] powerpc: Fix address calculation in clear_utlb_entry()
From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Tue Mar 04 2025 - 18:20:27 EST
In relocatable.S, function clear_utlb_entry() goes into real mode. To
do so, it has to calculate the physical address based on the virtual
address. To get the virtual address it used 'bl' which is problematic
(see commit XXX). In addition, the calculation is done on a bad address,
which may lead to unexpected behaviour.
Fix it by re-writing the code so that is goes via another path which
is based 'bcl 20,31,.+4' which is the right instruction to use for that.
