[PATCH 04/10] ppc64: Add paranoid warnings for unexpected DSISR_PROTFAULT

From: Mel Gorman
Date: Mon Jan 05 2015 - 05:55:11 EST


ppc64 should not be depending on DSISR_PROTFAULT and it's unexpected
if they are triggered. This patch adds warnings just in case they
are being accidentally depended upon.
