      Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc · 65b97fb7
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
       "This is the powerpc changes for the 3.11 merge window.  In addition to
        the usual bug fixes and small updates, the main highlights are:
      
         - Support for transparent huge pages by Aneesh Kumar for 64-bit
           server processors.  This allows the use of 16M pages as transparent
           huge pages on kernels compiled with a 64K base page size.
      
         - Base VFIO support for KVM on power by Alexey Kardashevskiy
      
         - Wiring up of our nvram to the pstore infrastructure, including
           putting compressed oopses in there by Aruna Balakrishnaiah
      
         - Move, rework and improve our "EEH" (basically PCI error handling
           and recovery) infrastructure.  It is no longer specific to pseries
           but is now usable by the new "powernv" platform as well (no
           hypervisor) by Gavin Shan.
      
         - I fixed some bugs in our math-emu instruction decoding and made it
           usable to emulate some optional FP instructions on processors with
           hard FP that lack them (such as fsqrt on Freescale embedded
           processors).
      
         - Support for Power8 "Event Based Branch" facility by Michael
           Ellerman.  This facility allows what is basically "userspace
           interrupts" for performance monitor events.
      
         - A bunch of Transactional Memory vs.  Signals bug fixes and HW
           breakpoint/watchpoint fixes by Michael Neuling.
      
        And more ...  I appologize in advance if I've failed to highlight
        something that somebody deemed worth it."
