powerpc updates for 4.11 part 1. ...
Highlights include:
- Support for direct mapped LPC on POWER9, giving Linux direct access to
devices that may be on there such as a UART.
- Memory hotplug support for the Power9 Radix MMU.
- Add new AUX vectors describing the processor's cache geometry, to be used by
glibc.
- The ability for a guest to ask the hypervisor to resize the guest's hash
table, and in addition support for doing so automatically when memory is
hotplugged into/out-of the guest. This allows the hash table to be sized
based on the current memory usage of the guest, rather than the maximum
possible memory usage.
- Implementation of optprobes (kprobe optimisation) for powerpc.
In addition there's the topic branch shared with the KVM tree, which includes
support for guests to use the Radix MMU on Power9.
