+Subject: powerpc/lib: fix book3s/32 boot failure due to code patching
+
+From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr>
+
+commit b45ba4a51cde29b2939365ef0c07ad34c8321789 upstream.
+
+Commit 51c3c62b58b3 ("powerpc: Avoid code patching freed init
+sections") accesses 'init_mem_is_free' flag too early, before the
+kernel is relocated. This provokes early boot failure (before the
+console is active).
+
+As it is not necessary to do this verification that early, this
+patch moves the test into patch_instruction() instead of
+__patch_instruction().
+
+This modification also has the advantage of avoiding unnecessary
+remappings.
+
+Fixes: 51c3c62b58b3 ("powerpc: Avoid code patching freed init sections")
