[ Upstream commit eafcd8e3fbad4f426a40ed2b6a8c697c3a4ef36a ]

Current core-pkey selftest fails if the test runs without privileges to
write into the core pattern file (/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern). This
causes the test to fail and give the impression that the subsystem being
tested is broken, when, in fact, the test is being executed without the
proper privileges. This is the current error:

	test: core_pkey
	tags: git_version:v4.19-3-g9e3363be9bce-dirty
	Error writing to core_pattern file: Permission denied
	failure: core_pkey

This patch simply skips this test if it runs without the proper privileges,
avoiding this undesired failure.

<title>selftests/powerpc: Allocate base registers</title>

[ Upstream commit 5249497a7bb6334fcc128588d6a7e1e21786515a ]

Some ptrace selftests are passing input operands using a constraint that
can allocate any register for the operand, and using these registers on
load/store operations.

If the register allocated by the compiler happens to be zero (r0), it might
cause an invalid memory address access, since load and store operations
consider the content of 0x0 address if the base register is r0, instead of
the content of the r0 register. For example:

	r1 := 0xdeadbeef
	r0 := 0xdeadbeef

	ld r2, 0(1) /* will load into r2 the content of r1 address */
	ld r2, 0(0) /* will load into r2 the content of 0x0 */

In order to avoid this possible problem, the inline assembly constraint
should be aware that these registers will be used as a base register, thus,
r0 should not be allocated.

Other than that, this patch removes inline assembly operands that are not
used by the tests.
