    powerpc: Revert CHRP boot wrapper to real-base = 12MB on 32-bit · 0dcd4401
    Paul Mackerras authored
    Commit 9b09c6d9 ("powerpc: Change the
    default link address for pSeries zImage kernels") changed the
    real-base value in the CHRP note added by addnote to the zImage from
    12MB to 32MB.  It turns out that this causes unnecessary extra reboots
    on old 32-bit CHRP machines.  This therefore adds a -r flag to addnote
    to allow us to specify what real-base value it should put in the CHRP
    note, and adjusts the wrapper script to pass -r c00000 to addnote when
    making a zImage for a CHRP machine.  Also, CHRP machines ignore the
    RPA note, so we don't need to arrange for it to be the same as the
    kernel's.
