Subject: [PATCH 2/3] powerpc/sstep: Fix kernel crash if VSX is not present
Date:   Mon, 21 May 2018 09:51:07 +0530

emulate_step() is not checking runtime VSX feature flag before
emulating an instruction. This is causing kernel crash when kernel
is compiled with CONFIG_VSX=y but running on a machine where VSX
is not supported or disabled. Ex, while running emulate_step tests
on P6 machine:

  Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 4 [#1]
  NIP [c000000000095c24] .load_vsrn+0x28/0x54
  LR [c000000000094bdc] .emulate_loadstore+0x167c/0x17b0
  Call Trace:
    0x40fe240c7ae147ae (unreliable)
    .emulate_loadstore+0x167c/0x17b0
    .emulate_step+0x25c/0x5bc
    .test_lxvd2x_stxvd2x+0x64/0x154

    .kernel_init_freeable+0x314/0x4cc
    .kernel_init+0x24/0x160
    .ret_from_kernel_thread+0x58/0xb4

With fix:
  emulate_step_test: lxvd2x         : FAIL
  emulate_step_test: stxvd2x        : FAIL
