Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman: - Fix an off-by-one bug in our alternative asm patching which leads to incorrectly patched code. This bug lay dormant for nearly 10 years but we finally hit it due to a recent change. - Fix lockups when running KVM guests on Power8 due to a missing check when a thread that's running KVM comes out of idle. - Fix an out-of-spec behaviour in the XIVE code (P9 interrupt controller). - Fix EEH handling of bridge MMIO windows. - Prevent crashes in our RFI fallback flush handler if firmware didn't tell us the size of the L1 cache (only seen on simulators). Thanks to: Benjamin Herrenschmidt, Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Neuling. * tag 'powerpc-4.17-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux: powerpc/kvm: Fix lockups when running KVM guests on Power8 powerpc/eeh: Fix enabling bridge MMIO windows powerpc/xive: Fix trying to "push" an already active pool VP powerpc/64s: Default l1d_size to 64K in RFI fallback flush powerpc/lib: Fix off-by-one in alternate feature patching
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
