Re: [XenPPC] [Patch] Detect non hypervisor hardware

[Mark F Mergen <mergen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The term "problem state" is well-established and well-documented in PowerPC
architecture.  I don't think we need to apologize for using this term in
code specific to PowerPC.  If there is an argument about terminology to be
had, I think we should have it with PowerPC architects, not about code
written to that architecture.

"Problem state" is a term that nobody outside PowerPC will understand,
so I would prefer a different name.
