SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH5 is used to save SPRN_PID. SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH6 is already available. SPRN_PID is only 8 bits. We have r12 that contains CR. We only need to preserve CR0, so we have space available in r12 to save PID. Keep PID in r12 and free up SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH5. Then In TLB miss handlers, instead of using SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH0 and SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH1, use SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH5 and SPRN_SPRG_SCRATCH6 to avoid future conflicts with normal exception prologs.

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.
