We get the below warning if we try to use kexec on P9:
kexec_core: Starting new kernel
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1223 at arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c:826 __set_breakpoint+0xb4/0x140

NIP __set_breakpoint+0xb4/0x140

Call Trace:

This happens since we are trying to clear hw breakpoint on POWER9,
though we don't have CPU_FTR_DAWR enabled. Guard __set_breakpoint()
within hw_breakpoint_disable() with ppc_breakpoint_available() to
address this.
Fixes: 9654153158 ("powerpc: Disable DAWR in the base POWER9 CPU features")

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.
