Linus Torvalds 38705613b7 powerpc updates for 4.11 part 1.
Highlights include:
 
  - Support for direct mapped LPC on POWER9, giving Linux direct access to
    devices that may be on there such as a UART.
 
  - Memory hotplug support for the Power9 Radix MMU.
 
  - Add new AUX vectors describing the processor's cache geometry, to be used by
    glibc.
 
  - The ability for a guest to ask the hypervisor to resize the guest's hash
    table, and in addition support for doing so automatically when memory is
    hotplugged into/out-of the guest. This allows the hash table to be sized
    based on the current memory usage of the guest, rather than the maximum
    possible memory usage.
 
  - Implementation of optprobes (kprobe optimisation) for powerpc.
 
 In addition there's the topic branch shared with the KVM tree, which includes
 support for guests to use the Radix MMU on Power9.
