Merge tag 'powerpc-5.5-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Highlights:
- Infrastructure for secure boot on some bare metal Power9 machines.
The firmware support is still in development, so the code here
won't actually activate secure boot on any existing systems.
- A change to xmon (our crash handler / pseudo-debugger) to restrict
it to read-only mode when the kernel is lockdown'ed, otherwise it's
trivial to drop into xmon and modify kernel data, such as the
lockdown state.
- Support for KASLR on 32-bit BookE machines (Freescale / NXP).
- Fixes for our flush_icache_range() and __kernel_sync_dicache()
(VDSO) to work with memory ranges >4GB.
- Some reworks of the pseries CMM (Cooperative Memory Management)
driver to make it behave more like other balloon drivers and enable
some cleanups of generic mm code.
- A series of fixes to our hardware breakpoint support to properly
handle unaligned watchpoint addresses.
Plus a bunch of other smaller improvements, fixes and cleanups.
