    Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc · 1b17366d
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
     "So here's my next branch for powerpc.  A bit late as I was on vacation
      last week.  It's mostly the same stuff that was in next already, I
      just added two patches today which are the wiring up of lockref for
      powerpc, which for some reason fell through the cracks last time and
      is trivial.
    
      The highlights are, in addition to a bunch of bug fixes:
    
       - Reworked Machine Check handling on kernels running without a
         hypervisor (or acting as a hypervisor).  Provides hooks to handle
         some errors in real mode such as TLB errors, handle SLB errors,
         etc...
    
       - Support for retrieving memory error information from the service
         processor on IBM servers running without a hypervisor and routing
         them to the memory poison infrastructure.
    
       - _PAGE_NUMA support on server processors
    
       - 32-bit BookE relocatable kernel support
    
       - FSL e6500 hardware tablewalk support
    
       - A bunch of new/revived board support
    
       - FSL e6500 deeper idle states and altivec powerdown support
    
      You'll notice a generic mm change here, it has been acked by the
      relevant authorities and is a pre-req for our _PAGE_NUMA support"
