From ba00ce1d6e08ad06f19f2ac53fd5c60bbe3fbeeb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anton Blanchard Date: Sun, 8 May 2011 21:20:19 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Remove static branch hint in giveup_altivec A static branch hint will override dynamic branch prediction on recent POWER CPUs. Since we are about to use more altivec in the kernel remove the static hint in giveup_altivec that assumes a userspace task is using altivec.
