Merge branch 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc
Pull powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here are a few more fixes for powerpc 3.10. It's a bit more than I
would have liked this late in the game but I suppose that's what
happens with a brand new chip generation coming out.
A few regression fixes, some last minute fixes for new P8 features
such as transactional memory,...
There's also one powerpc KVM patch that I requested that adds two
missing functions to our in-kernel interrupt controller support which
is itself a new 3.10 feature. These are defined by the base
hypervisor specification. We didn't implement them originally because
Linux doesn't use them but they are simple and I'm not comfortable
having a half-implemented interface in 3.10 and having to deal with
versionning etc... later when something starts needing those calls.
They cannot be emulated in qemu when using in-kernel interrupt
controller (not enough shared state).
Just added a last minute patch to fix a typo introducing a breakage in
our cputable for Power7+ processors, sorry about that, but the
regression it fixes just hurt me :-)"
