powerpc/modules: Don't try to restore r2 after a sibling call
When attempting to load a livepatch module, I got the following error: module_64: patch_module: Expect noop after relocate, got 3c820000 The error was triggered by the following code in unregister_netdevice_queue(): 14c: 00 00 00 48 b 14c <unregister_netdevice_queue+0x14c> 14c: R_PPC64_REL24 net_set_todo 150: 00 00 82 3c addis r4,r2,0 GCC didn't insert a nop after the branch to net_set_todo() because it's a sibling call, so it never returns. The nop isn't needed after the branch in that case. Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Acked-by: Naveen N.
