From 4d6a0680fa425230748a2d91d81be9afe050eeb3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Date: Tue, 7 Jun 2016 12:50:28 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] ppc: Do not take exceptions on unknown SPRs in privileged mode The architecture specifies that mtspr/mfspr on an unknown SPR number should act as a nop in privileged mode. I haven't removed the warning however as it can be useful for diagnosing.
