Impact: update to PowerPC ftrace arch API

This patch converts PowerPC to use the new dynamic ftrace arch API.

Thanks to Paul Mackennas for pointing out the mistakes of my original
test_24bit_addr function.

I think this still isn't right, and the comment is one of those ones
that is only useful to people who can't read C, as it's just a
transliteration of the code.

The comment should say something like "Return true if diff can be
represented as a 26-bit twos-complement binary number" and the second
part of the test should be (diff >= (-1 << 25)).  However, since you
define a test_offset() function in patch 4/5 that does the same test
but using only one comparison instead of two, why don't you just say:

	return !test_offset(diff);

(having first moved test_offset() before test_24bit_addr)?

Paul.

Or better still, split out and use the code from create_branch() in
arch/powerpc/lib/code-patching.c .. which is hopefully correct :)

cheers

Heh, I have two reasons for that typo.

 1) I reference Paul McKenney a lot, and my fingers are programmed.
 2) I type with the dvorak layout, and the 'r' is just above the 'n'.
    qwerty 'o' == dvorak 'r'
    qwerty 'l' == dvorak 'n'

;-)

Argh!!! That must be a misfold.  I fixed that code.  The final version 
ad the same shift for both.

OK, will fix. Thanks. Hmm, maybe I ment to do that, and miss the patch :-/
