[Qemu-devel] [PATCHv2 24/31] ppc: Handle unconditional (always/never) traps at translation time

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>]

We don't need to call a helper for trap always and trap never
which are used by Linux under some circumstances.

v2. Don't generate the helper call when trapping always
