From c2d52644e2da8a07ecab5ca62dd0bc563089e8dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Neuling Date: Fri, 9 Aug 2013 17:29:30 +1000 Subject: powerpc: Save the TAR register earlier This moves us to save the Target Address Register (TAR) a earlier in __switch_to. It introduces a new function save_tar() to do this. We need to save the TAR earlier as we will overwrite it in the transactional memory reclaim/recheckpoint path. We are going to do this in a subsequent patch which will fix saving the TAR register when it's modified inside a transaction.
