commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=b7da201bb2c98cda3ab9feaf271ae7fc98337f50
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/2022.05.x

gcc 11.3.0 contains a backported patch [1] that introduce
a regression for old powerpc cpus like the powerpc 7400 (G4).

The glibc crash the init process due to a wrong asm machine
directive (.machine).

Run /sbin/init as init process
init[1]: segfault (11) at 7369693e nip 6f6e08 lr 6f6a68 code 1 in libc.so.6[690000+18f000]
init[1]: code: 280a000c 41c1ffe0 811edb80 554a103a 7d48502e 7d4a4214 7d4903a6 4e800420

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b

Backport two patches from the gcc-11 stable branch (the upcoming gcc
11.4.0).

+Subject: [PATCH 5/6] rs6000: Improve .machine
+
+This adds more correct .machine for most older CPUs.  It should be
+conservative in the sense that everything we handled before we handle at
+least as well now.  This does not yet revamp the server CPU handling, it
+is too risky at this point in time.
+
+Tested on powerpc64-linux {-m32,-m64}.  Also manually tested with all
+-mcpu=, and the output of that passed through the GNU assembler.
+
+2022-03-04  Segher Boessenkool  <segher at kernel.crashing.org>
+
+	* config/rs6000/rs6000.c (rs6000_machine_from_flags): Restructure a
+	bit.  Handle most older CPUs.

+Subject: [PATCH 6/6] rs6000: Do not use rs6000_cpu for .machine ppc and ppc64
+ (PR104829)
+
+Fixes: 77eccbf39ed5
+
+rs6000.h has
+  #define PROCESSOR_POWERPC   PROCESSOR_PPC604
+  #define PROCESSOR_POWERPC64 PROCESSOR_RS64A
+which means that if you use things like  -mcpu=powerpc -mvsx  it will no
+longer work after my latest .machine patch.  This causes GCC build errors
+in some cases, not a good idea (even if the errors are actually
+pre-existing: using -mvsx with a machine that does not have VSX cannot
+work properly).
+
+2022-03-11  Segher Boessenkool  <segher at kernel.crashing.org>
+
+	PR target/104829
+	* config/rs6000/rs6000.c (rs6000_machine_from_flags): Don't output
+	"ppc" and "ppc64" based on rs6000_cpu.
