Linus Torvalds ff2632d7d0 powerpc updates for 6.10
- Enable BPF Kernel Functions (kfuncs) in the powerpc BPF JIT.
 
  - Allow per-process DEXCR (Dynamic Execution Control Register) settings via
    prctl, notably NPHIE which controls hashst/hashchk for ROP protection.
 
  - Install powerpc selftests in sub-directories. Note this changes the way
    run_kselftest.sh needs to be invoked for powerpc selftests.
 
  - Change fadump (Firmware Assisted Dump) to better handle memory add/remove.
 
  - Add support for passing additional parameters to the fadump kernel.
 
  - Add support for updating the kdump image on CPU/memory add/remove events.
 
  - Other small features, cleanups and fixes.
