Subject: [PATCH 5.15 112/177] powerpc/85xx: Fix oops when CONFIG_FSL_PMC=n

From: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 3dc709e518b47386e6af937eaec37bb36539edfd ]

When CONFIG_FSL_PMC is set to n, no value is assigned to cpu_up_prepare
in the mpc85xx_pm_ops structure. As a result, oops is triggered in
smp_85xx_start_cpu().

  smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ...
  kernel tried to execute user page (0) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
  BUG: Unable to handle kernel instruction fetch (NULL pointer?)
  Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000
  Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
  ...
