PPC_INVALIDATE_ERAT is slbia IH=7 which is a new variant introduced with POWER9, and the result is undefined on earlier CPUs. Commits7b9f71f974("powerpc/64s: POWER9 machine check handler") andd4748276ae("powerpc/64s: Improve local TLB flush for boot and MCE on POWER9") caused POWER7/8 code to use this instruction. Remove it. An ERAT flush can be made by invalidatig the SLB, but before POWER9 that requires a flush and rebolt.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
