Where did this piece move in the new code? - /* Clear MSR:EE */ - mfmsr r7 - rlwinm r0,r7,0,17,15 - mtmsr r0 - - /* Check current_thread_info()->flags */ - rlwinm r4,r1,0,0,18 - lwz r4,TI_FLAGS(r4) - andi. r0,r4,_TIF_NEED_RESCHED - beq 1f - mtmsr r7 /* out of line this ? */ - blr -1: Maybe this code was added back somewhere else in another commit around the same time... in that case your bisect result would be bogus.
