powerpc: Replace mfmsr instructions with load from PACA kernel_msr field
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
On 64-bit, the mfmsr instruction can be quite slow, slower
than loading a field from the cache-hot PACA, which happens
to already contain the value we want in most cases.
