Merge tag 'powerpc-6.1-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
- Remove our now never-true definitions for pgd_huge() and p4d_leaf().
- Add pte_needs_flush() and huge_pmd_needs_flush() for 64-bit.
- Add support for syscall wrappers.
- Add support for KFENCE on 64-bit.
- Update 64-bit HV KVM to use the new guest state entry/exit accounting
API.
- Support execute-only memory when using the Radix MMU (P9 or later).
- Implement CONFIG_PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING for pseries guests.
- Updates to our linker script to move more data into read-only
sections.
- Allow the VDSO to be randomised on 32-bit.
- Many other small features and fixes.
