commit 8219d31effa7be5dbc7ff915d7970672e028c701 upstream.

Building tinyconfig with gcc (Debian 11.2.0-16) and assembler (Debian
2.37.90.20220207) the following build error shows up:

  {standard input}: Assembler messages:
  {standard input}:10576: Error: unrecognized opcode: `stbcx.'
  {standard input}:10680: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lharx'
  {standard input}:10694: Error: unrecognized opcode: `lbarx'

Rework to add assembler directives [1] around the instruction.  The
problem with this might be that we can trick a power6 into
single-stepping through an stbcx. for instance, and it will execute that
in kernel mode.

commit a633cb1edddaa643fadc70abc88f89a408fa834a upstream.

Looks like there been a copy paste mistake when added the instruction
'stbcx' twice and one was probably meant to be 'sthcx'. Changing to
'sthcx' from 'stbcx'.

commit fe663df7825811358531dc2e8a52d9eaa5e3515e upstream.

Building tinyconfig with gcc (Debian 11.2.0-16) and assembler (Debian
2.37.90.20220207) the following build error shows up:

  {standard input}: Assembler messages:
  {standard input}:2088: Error: unrecognized opcode: `ptesync'
  make[3]: *** [/builds/linux/scripts/Makefile.build:287: arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.o] Error 1

Add the 'ifdef CONFIG_PPC64' around the 'ptesync' in function
'emulate_update_regs()' to like it is in 'analyse_instr()'. Since it looks like
it got dropped inadvertently by commit 3cdfcbfd32b9 ("powerpc: Change
analyse_instr so it doesn't modify *regs").

A key detail is that analyse_instr() will never recognise lwsync or
ptesync on 32-bit (because of the existing ifdef), and as a result
emulate_update_regs() should never be called with an op specifying
either of those on 32-bit. So removing them from emulate_update_regs()
should be a nop in terms of runtime behaviour.
