Scott,
The patch "Convert some mftb/mftbu into mfspr"
(beb2dc0a7a84be003ce54e98b95d65cc66e6e536) breaks startup on MPC885.
The CPU traps (SoftwareEmulation trap) at sched_clock() when trying to
read TBU with mfspr.
Reverting the patch solves the issue.
What's the prefered way to fix this ?
Christophe

I guess we need to add an ifdef.
