powerpc: use _GLOBAL_TOC for memmove
memmove may be called from module code copy_pages(btrfs), and it may call memcpy, which may call back to C code, so it needs to use _GLOBAL_TOC to set up r2 correctly. This fixes following error when I tried to boot an le guest: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c000000073f97210] pc: c000000000015004: enable_kernel_altivec+0x24/0x80 lr: c000000000058fbc: enter_vmx_copy+0x3c/0x60 sp: c000000073f97490 msr: 8000000002009033 dar: d000000001d50170 dsisr: 40000000 current = 0xc0000000734c0000 paca = 0xc00000000fff0000 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 815, comm = mktemp enter ? for help [c000000073f974f0] c000000000058fbc enter_vmx_copy+0x3c/0x60 [c000000073f97510] c000000000057d34 memcpy_power7+0x274/0x840 [c000000073f97610] d000000001c3179c copy_pages+0xfc/0x110 [btrfs] [c000000073f97660] d000000001c3c248 memcpy_extent_buffer+0xe8/0x160 [btrfs] [c000000073f97700] d000000001be4be8 setup_items_for_insert+0x208/0x4a0 [btrfs] [c000000073f97820] d000000001be50b4 btrfs_insert_empty_items+0xf4/0x140 [btrfs] [c000000073f97890] d000000001bfed30 insert_with_overflow+0x70/0x180 [btrfs] [c000000073f97900] d000000001bff174 btrfs_insert_dir_item+0x114/0x2f0 [btrfs] [c000000073f979a0] d000000001c1f92c btrfs_add_link+0x10c/0x370 [btrfs] [c000000073f97a40] d000000001c20e94 btrfs_create+0x204/0x270 [btrfs] [c000000073f97b00] c00000000026d438 vfs_create+0x178/0x210 [c000000073f97b50] c000000000270a70 do_last+0x9f0/0xe90 [c000000073f97c20] c000000000271010 path_openat+0x100/0x810 [c000000073f97ce0] c000000000272ea8 do_filp_open+0x58/0xd0 [c000000073f97dc0] c00000000025ade8 do_sys_open+0x1b8/0x300 [c000000073f97e30] c00000000000a008 syscall_exit+0x0/0x7c Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
