powerpc/security: Fix link stack flush instruction
The inline execution path for the hardware assisted branch flush instruction failed to set CTR to the correct value before bcctr, causing a crash when the feature is enabled. Fixes: 4d24e21cc694 ("powerpc/security: Allow for processors that flush the link stack using the special bcctr") Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201007080605.64423-1-npiggin@gmail.com
