Could you add more description about the change ?

When I look at x86, riscv or s390 commits for the same thing, they tell 
a lot more:

	Commit 27d6b4d14f5c ("x86/entry: Use generic syscall entry function")
	Commit f0bddf50586d ("riscv: entry: Convert to generic entry")
	Commit 56e62a737028 ("s390: convert to generic entry")

Can you elso provide some benchmark comparisons, at least using the 
null_syscall selftest

	tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/benchmarks/null_syscall.c

I don't understand. Other architectures have something more simple for 
on_thread_stack().

Also, validate_sp() will also return true when on irq_stack or emergency 
stack.

shouldn't this be:

	r0 = syscall_enter_from_user_mode(regs, r0);

This seems to do a lot. Isn't there stuff that was previously done by 
powerpc and needs to be removed now ?

It is already called below in do_page_fault(), is it normal to do it twice ?

No need to do the same in hash__do_page_fault() ?
