- We were statically predicting syscalls would be 32bit which meant every 64bit syscall was guaranteed to be mispredicted. Just let the hardware predict this one. - We shouldnt use blrl for indirect function calls, it is unlikely to be predicted correctly and corrupts the link prediction stack. We should use bctrl instead. - Statically predict a branch in the system call path, favouring calls from userspace. - Remove static prediction in pagefault path, hardware prediction should do a better job here.
