powerpc/64: Drop ppc_inst_as_str()
The ppc_inst_as_str() macro tries to make printing variable length, aka "prefixed", instructions convenient. It mostly succeeds, but it does hide an on-stack buffer, which triggers stack protector. More problematically it doesn't compile at all with GCC 12, with -Wdangling-pointer, due to the fact that it returns the char buffer declared inside the macro: arch/powerpc/kernel/trace/ftrace.c: In function '__ftrace_modify_call': ./include/linux/printk.h:475:44: error: using a dangling pointer to '__str' [-Werror=dangling-pointer=] 475 | #define printk(fmt, ...) printk_index_wrap(_printk, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) ... arch/powerpc/kernel/trace/ftrace.c:567:17: note: in expansion of macro 'pr_err' 567 | pr_err("Not expected bl: opcode is %s\n", ppc_inst_as_str(op)); | ^~~~~~ ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/inst.h:156:14: note: '__str' declared here 156 | char __str[PPC_INST_STR_LEN]; \ | ^~~~~ This could be fixed by having the caller declare the buffer, but in some places there'd need to be two buffers. In all cases where ppc_inst_as_str() is used the output is not really meant for user consumption, it's almost always indicative of a kernel bug. A simpler solution is to just print the value as an unsigned long. For normal instructions the output is identical. For prefixed instructions the value is printed as a single 64-bit quantity, whereas previously the low half was printed first. But that is good enough for debug output, especially as prefixed instructions will be rare in kernel code in practice.
