Christophe Leroy c21f5a9ed8 powerpc/32s: fix booting with CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_BOOTX
When booting through OF, setup_disp_bat() does nothing because
disp_BAT are not set. By change, it used to work because BOOTX
buffer is mapped 1:1 at address 0x81000000 by the bootloader, and
btext_setup_display() sets virt addr same as phys addr.

But since commit 215b823707 ("powerpc/32s: set up an early static
hash table for KASAN."), a temporary page table overrides the
bootloader mapping.

This 0x81000000 is also problematic with the newly implemented
Kernel Userspace Access Protection (KUAP) because it is within user
address space.

This patch fixes those issues by properly setting disp_BAT through
a call to btext_prepare_BAT(), allowing setup_disp_bat() to
properly setup BAT3 for early bootx screen buffer access.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
