The esr register has the details of Program Interrupt on BookE/4xx cpus,
printing its value is helpful.

With this, it will also print the DSISR on 8xx/6xx so it will print garbage.

8xx/6xx provide the information in SRR1. If you want to proceed, you have to do the same as in ISI: 
Copy the content of SRR1 into regs->dsisr in the assembly handler in head_book3s_32.S and in the 
instruction TLB error handler in head_8xx.S

In fact, we already have get_reason() called by do_program_check() to retrieve the reason of the 
program check exception. Maybe it could be used to print usefull information instead of starting 
doing almost the same is another way.

Or we do as I suggested above, and we remove that get_reason() stuff. But get_reason() is also used 
by the alignment exception. So that doesn't look easy.

I don't know what the best approach is.

Good point.

Yes, there is the get_reason() function. But if the program interrupt
is triggered in kernel mode,
the reason can be lost , see the code below:

335 static bool exception_common(int signr, struct pt_regs *regs, int code,
 336                               unsigned long addr)
 337 {
 338         if (!user_mode(regs)) {
 339                 die("Exception in kernel mode", regs, signr);
 340                 return false;
 341         }

The third parameter(int code) of exception_common is to pass the
reason, when in kernel
mode, the "code" parameter is lost, hence I append INTERRUPT_PROGRAM here.

This is for __show_regs(), so just printing the content of the
register is fine I think.

Is it acceptable to print the interrupt reason before invoking die()
in exception_common()?
