This adds a parameter to __kvmppc_save_tm and __kvmppc_restore_tm
which allows the caller to indicate whether it wants the nonvolatile
register state to be preserved across the call, as required by the C
calling conventions. This parameter being non-zero also causes the
MSR bits that enable TM, FP, VMX and VSX to be preserved. The
condition register and DSCR are now always preserved.
With this, kvmppc_save_tm_hv and kvmppc_restore_tm_hv can be called
from C code provided the 3rd parameter is non-zero. So that these
functions can be called from modules, they now include code to set
the TOC pointer (r2) on entry, as they can call other built-in C
functions which will assume the TOC to have been set.
Also, the fake suspend code in kvmppc_save_tm_hv is modified here to
assume that treclaim in fake-suspend state does not modify any registers,
which is the case on POWER9. This enables the code to be simplified
quite a bit.
_kvmppc_save_tm_pr and _kvmppc_restore_tm_pr become much simpler with
this change, since they now only need to save and restore TAR and pass
1 for the 3rd argument to __kvmppc_{save,restore}_tm.

README
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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
