3.19.8-ckt21 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org>

commit b4c112114aab9aff5ed4568ca5e662bb02cdfe74 upstream.

In create_zero_mask() we have:

	addi	%1,%2,-1
	andc	%1,%1,%2
	popcntd	%0,%1

using the "r" constraint for %2. r0 is a valid register in the "r" set,
but addi X,r0,X turns it into an li:

	li	r7,-1
	andc	r7,r7,r0
	popcntd	r4,r7

Fix this by using the "b" constraint, for which r0 is not a valid
register.

This was found with a kernel build using gcc trunk, narrowed down to
when -frename-registers was enabled at -O2. It is just luck however
that we aren't seeing this on older toolchains.

Thanks to Segher for working with me to find this issue.
