Matt reported that scripts/decodecode doesn't work for the instruction
dump in the powerpc oops output. Although there are scripts around that
can decode it, it would be preferable if the standard in-tree script
worked.
All other arches prefix the instruction dump with "Code:", and that's
what the script looks for, so use that.
The script then works as expected:
$ CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64le-linux-gnu- ./scripts/decodecode
Code:
fbc1fff0 f821ffc1 7c7d1b78 7c9c2378 ebc30028 7fdff378 48000018 60000000

Note that the script doesn't cope well with printk timestamps or printk
caller info.

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.
