Merge tag 'powerpc-4.10-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman: "Highlights include: - Support for the kexec_file_load() syscall, which is a prereq for secure and trusted boot. - Prevent kernel execution of userspace on P9 Radix (similar to SMEP/PXN). - Sort the exception tables at build time, to save time at boot, and store them as relative offsets to save space in the kernel image & memory. - Allow building the kernel with thin archives, which should allow us to build an allyesconfig once some other fixes land. - Build fixes to allow us to correctly rebuild when changing the kernel endian from big to little or vice versa. - Plumbing so that we can avoid doing a full mm TLB flush on P9 Radix. - Initial stack protector support (-fstack-protector). - Support for dumping the radix (aka. Linux) and hash page tables via debugfs. - Fix an oops in cxl coredump generation when cxl_get_fd() is used. - Freescale updates from Scott: "Highlights include 8xx hugepage support, qbman fixes/cleanup, device tree updates, and some misc cleanup." - Many and varied fixes and minor enhancements as always.
