Date: Mon, 6 Jan 2014 14:38:08 -0800 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, stable@...r.kernel.org, Anton Blanchard <anton@...ba.org>, Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@...nel.crashing.org> Subject: [PATCH 3.10 059/129] powerpc: Align p_end 3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Anton Blanchard <anton@...ba.org> commit 286e4f90a72c0b0621dde0294af6ed4b0baddabb upstream. p_end is an 8 byte value embedded in the text section. This means it is only 4 byte aligned when it should be 8 byte aligned. Fix this by adding an explicit alignment. This fixes an issue where POWER7 little endian builds with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y fail to boot.
