[ Upstream commit 3dc709e518b47386e6af937eaec37bb36539edfd ] When CONFIG_FSL_PMC is set to n, no value is assigned to cpu_up_prepare in the mpc85xx_pm_ops structure. As a result, oops is triggered in smp_85xx_start_cpu(). smp: Bringing up secondary CPUs ... kernel tried to execute user page (0) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0) BUG: Unable to handle kernel instruction fetch (NULL pointer?) Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1] ...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
