[ Upstream commit c48a7c44a1d02516309015b6134c9bb982e17008 ]

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.

Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).

This also makes the code shorter.

This is analogous to commit 3231dd586277 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix
command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for
kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Add HOTPLUG_SMT support (/sys/devices/system/cpu/smt) and honour the
   configured SMT state when hotplugging CPUs into the system

 - Combine final TLB flush and lazy TLB mm shootdown IPIs when using the
   Radix MMU to avoid a broadcast TLBIE flush on exit

 - Drop the exclusion between ptrace/perf watchpoints, and drop the now
   unused associated arch hooks

 - Add support for the "nohlt" command line option to disable CPU idle

 - Add support for -fpatchable-function-entry for ftrace, with GCC &gt;=
   13.1

 - Rework memory block size determination, and support 256MB size on
   systems with GPUs that have hotpluggable memory

 - Various other small features and fixes

<content type='text'>
With 2M PMD-level mapping, we require 32 struct pages and a single vmemmap
page can contain 1024 struct pages (PAGE_SIZE/sizeof(struct page)).  Hence
with 64K page size, we don't use vmemmap deduplication for PMD-level
mapping.

<id>urn:sha1:7fd123e544886bf04fa853869efe55cb3f22d0c0</id>
<content type='text'>
Update the 64s GENERIC_CPU option. POWER4 support has been dropped, so
make that clear in the option name. The POWER5_CPU option is dropped
because it's uncommon, and GENERIC_CPU covers it.

-mtune= before power8 is dropped because the minimum gcc version
supports power8, and tuning is made consistent between big and little
endian.

A 970 option is added for PowerPC 970 / G5 because they still have a
user base, and -mtune=power8 does not generate good code for the 970.

This also updates the ISA versions document to add Power4/Power4+
because I didn't realise Power4+ used 2.01.
