Add a cast in case the caller passes in a different type, as it would if mtspr/mtmsr were functions. Previously, if a 64-bit type was passed in on 32-bit, GCC would bind the constraint to a pair of registers, and would substitute the first register in the pair in the asm code. This corresponds to the upper half of the 64-bit register, which is generally not the desired behavior. Signed-off-by: Scott Wood <scottwood@freescale.com> --- If you're wondering why you'd pass a 64-bit value to one of these macros on 32-bit, it came up when trying to load an SPR from kvm_vcpu_arch_shared. arch/powerpc/include/asm/reg.h | 7 +++++-- 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
