When building with -Wsometimes-uninitialized, Clang warns:

  arch/powerpc/xmon/ppc-dis.c:157:7: warning: variable 'opcode' is used
  uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false
  [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
    if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTRS_POWER9))
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  arch/powerpc/xmon/ppc-dis.c:167:7: note: uninitialized use occurs here
    if (opcode == NULL)
        ^~~~~~
  arch/powerpc/xmon/ppc-dis.c:157:3: note: remove the 'if' if its
  condition is always true
    if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTRS_POWER9))
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  arch/powerpc/xmon/ppc-dis.c:132:38: note: initialize the variable
  'opcode' to silence this warning
    const struct powerpc_opcode *opcode;
                                       ^
                                        = NULL
  1 warning generated.

This warning seems to make no sense on the surface because opcode is set
to NULL right below this statement. However, there is a comma instead of
semicolon to end the dialect assignment, meaning that the opcode
assignment only happens in the if statement. Properly terminate that
line so that Clang no longer warns.

Fixes: 5b102782c7f4 ("powerpc/xmon: Enable disassembly files (compilation changes)")

<title>powerpc: Only use task_struct 'cpu' field on SMP</title>

When moving to CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, the thread_info 'cpu' field
gets moved into task_struct and only defined when CONFIG_SMP is set.

This patch ensures that TI_CPU is only used when CONFIG_SMP is set and
that task_struct 'cpu' field is not used directly out of SMP code.

kcov provides kernel coverage data that's useful for fuzzing tools like
syzkaller.

Wire up kcov support on powerpc. Disable kcov instrumentation on the same
files where we currently disable gcov and UBSan instrumentation, plus some
additional exclusions which appear necessary to boot on book3e machines.

There is a plan to build the kernel with -Wimplicit-fallthrough and these
places in the code produced warnings, but because we build arch/powerpc
with -Werror, they became errors.  Fix them up.

This patch produces no change in behaviour, but should be reviewed in
case these are actually bugs not intentional fallthoughs.

<title>powerpc/xmon: Fix invocation inside lock region</title>

Currently xmon needs to get devtree_lock (through rtas_token()) during its
invocation (at crash time). If there is a crash while devtree_lock is being
held, then xmon tries to get the lock but spins forever and never get into
the interactive debugger, as in the following case:

	int *ptr = NULL;
	raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&amp;devtree_lock, flags);
	*ptr = 0xdeadbeef;

This patch avoids calling rtas_token(), thus trying to get the same lock,
at crash time. This new mechanism proposes getting the token at
initialization time (xmon_init()) and just consuming it at crash time.

This would allow xmon to be possible invoked independent of devtree_lock
being held or not.

Currently sparse is complaining about three issues on the xmon code. Two
storage classes issues and a dereferencing a 'noderef'  pointer. These are
the warnings:

	arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c:2783:1: warning: symbol 'dump_log_buf' was not declared. Should it be static?
	arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c:2989:6: warning: symbol 'format_pte' was not declared. Should it be static?
	arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c:2983:30: warning: dereference of noderef expression

This patch fixes all of them, turning both functions static and
dereferencing a pointer calling rcu_dereference() instead of a
straightforward dereference.

hit:

 arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c:452:12: warning: stack frame size of 2576
 bytes in function 'xmon_core' [-Wframe-larger-than=]

Some investigation by Naveen indicates this is due to clang saving the

While this issue is investigated, bump up the frame size limit for xmon
when building with clang.
