Kumar Gala 92b4dc1625 [PATCH] ppc32: Simplified load string emulation error checking 
The error checking for emulation of load string instructions was overly
generous and would cause certain valid forms of the instructions to be
treated as illegal.  We drop the range checking since the architecture
allows this to be boundedly undefined.  Tests on CPUs that support these
instructions appear not do cause illegal instruction traps on range errors
and just allow the execution to occur.

Thanks to Kim Phillips for debugging this and figuring out what real HW was
doing.
