  Kernel panic - not syncing: kernel stack overflow
  CPU: 0 PID: 2838 Comm: ssh Not tainted 3.13.0-rc8-juniper-00146-g19eca00 #4
  Call Trace:

The reason is that we have used the wrong register to calculate the
ksp_limit in commit cbc9565ee8 (powerpc: Remove ksp_limit on ppc64).
Just fix it.

As suggested by Benjamin Herrenschmidt, also add the C prototype of the
function in the comment in order to avoid such kind of errors in the
future.
