This patch simply adds definitions for the MSR bits and some macros to
test for MSR TM bits.
This was copied from arch/powerpc/include/asm/reg.h generic MSR part.
Can't we find a way to avoid duplicating such defines ?
I think there are three possible ways, but none of them respect the premises
we are used too. These are the possible ways I can think of:
1) Including arch/powerpc/include/asm as part of the selftest compilation
process.
Problem: This might break the selftest independence of the kbuild system.
2) Generate a temporary header file inside selftests/include which contains
these macros at compilation time.
Problem: The problem as above.
3) Define MSR fields at userspace headers (/usr/include).
Problem: I am not sure userspace should have MSR bits information.
Do you suggest me to investigate any other way?
In this case I think we can probably just copy the few #defines we need.
Cool. That is the very same thing as suggested by Christophe. I sent the v4
yesterday, with this change already.
It didn't get through. Latest is still v3 it seems, look

Thanks for looking at it.
