    parisc: Fix lpa and lpa_user defines · db19c6f1
    John David Anglin authored
    While working on the rewrite to the light-weight syscall and futex code, I
    experimented with using a hash index based on the user physical address of
    atomic variable. This exposed two problems with the lpa and lpa_user defines.
    
    Because of the copy instruction, the pa argument needs to be an early clobber
    argument. This prevents gcc from allocating the va and pa arguments to the same
    register.
    
    Secondly, the lpa instruction can cause a page fault so we need to catch
    exceptions.
