powerpc/32: Fix early boot failure with RTAS built-in
Commit 0df977eafc79 ("powerpc/6xx: Don't use SPRN_SPRG2 for storing stack pointer while in RTAS") changes the code to use a field in thread struct to store the stack pointer while in RTAS instead of using SPRN_SPRG2. It therefore converts all places which were manipulating SPRN_SPRG2 to use that field. During early startup, the zeroing of SPRN_SPRG2 has been replaced by a zeroing of that field in thread struct. But at least in start_here, that's done wrongly because it used the physical address of the fields while MMU is on at that time. So the virtual address of the field should be used instead, but in the meantime, thread struct has already been zeroed and initialised so we can just drop this initialisation.

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.
