Michael Ellerman 44a12806d0 Revert "powerpc/64: Avoid restore_math call if possible in syscall exit" 
This reverts commit bc4f65e4cf.

As reported by Andreas, this commit is causing unrecoverable SLB misses in the
system call exit path:

This is caused by us trying to load THREAD_LOAD_FP with MSR_RI=0, and taking an
SLB miss on the thread struct.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
