[PATCH] powerpc: Don't use toc in decrementer_iSeries_masked
Since 404849bbd2bfd62e05b36f4753f6e1af6050a824 we've been using LOAD_REG_ADDRBASE, which uses the toc pointer, in decrementer_iSeries_masked. This can explode if we take the decrementer interrupt while we're in a module, because the toc pointer in r2 will be the module's toc pointer.
