powerpc: Set the correct ksp_limit on ppc32 when switching to irq stack
Guenter Roeck has got the following call trace on a p2020 board: Kernel stack overflow in process eb3e5a00, r1=eb79df90 CPU: 0 PID: 2838 Comm: ssh Not tainted 3.13.0-rc8-juniper-00146-g19eca00 #4 task: eb3e5a00 ti: c0616000 task.ti: ef440000 NIP: c003a420 LR: c003a410 CTR: c0017518 REGS: eb79dee0 TRAP: 0901 Not tainted (3.13.0-rc8-juniper-00146-g19eca00) MSR: 00029000 <CE,EE,ME> CR: 24008444 XER: 00000000 GPR00: c003a410 eb79df90 eb3e5a00 00000000 eb05d900 00000001 65d87646 00000000 GPR08: 00000000 020b8000 00000000 00000000 44008442 NIP [c003a420] __do_softirq+0x94/0x1ec LR [c003a410] __do_softirq+0x84/0x1ec Call Trace: [eb79df90] [c003a410] __do_softirq+0x84/0x1ec (unreliable) [eb79dfe0] [c003a970] irq_exit+0xbc/0xc8 [eb79dff0] [c000cc1c] call_do_irq+0x24/0x3c [ef441f20] [c00046a8] do_IRQ+0x8c/0xf8 [ef441f40] [c000e7f4] ret_from_except+0x0/0x18 --- Exception: 501 at 0xfcda524 LR = 0x10024900 Instruction dump: 7c781b78 3b40000a 3a73b040 543c0024 3a800000 3b3913a0 7ef5bb78 48201bf9 5463103a 7d3b182e 7e89b92e 7c008146 <3ba00000> 7e7e9b78 48000014 57fff87f Kernel panic - not syncing: kernel stack overflow CPU: 0 PID: 2838 Comm: ssh Not tainted 3.13.0-rc8-juniper-00146-g19eca00 #4 Call Trace: The reason is that we have used the wrong register to calculate the ksp_limit in commit cbc9565ee826 (powerpc: Remove ksp_limit on ppc64). Just fix it. As suggested by Benjamin Herrenschmidt, also add the C prototype of the function in the comment in order to avoid such kind of errors in the future.
