In relocate_32.S, function clear_utlb_entry() goes into real mode. To do so, it has to calculate the physical address based on the virtual address. To get the virtual address it uses 'bl' which is problematic (see commitc974809a26("powerpc/vdso: Avoid link stack corruption in __get_datapage()")). In addition, the calculation is done on a wrong address because 'bl' loads LR with the address of the following instruction, not the address of the target. So when the target is not the instruction following the 'bl' instruction, it may lead to unexpected behaviour. Fix it by re-writing the code so that is goes via another path which is based 'bcl 20,31,.+4' which is the right instruction to use for that.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
