[PATCH] powerpc: Don't blow away load_addr in start_thread
The patch to make process.c work for 32-bit and 64-bit (06d67d54741a5bfefa31945ef195dfa748c29025) broke some 64-bit binaries. We were blowing away load_addr in gpr[2], so we weren't properly relocating the entry point. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
