Merge tag 'powerpc-5.13-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman: - Enable KFENCE for 32-bit. - Implement EBPF for 32-bit. - Convert 32-bit to do interrupt entry/exit in C. - Convert 64-bit BookE to do interrupt entry/exit in C. - Changes to our signal handling code to use user_access_begin/end() more extensively. - Add support for time namespaces (CONFIG_TIME_NS) - A series of fixes that allow us to reenable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX. - Other smaller features, fixes & cleanups.

*
* We create two sets of source and destination buffers, one in regular memory,
* the other cache-inhibited (by default we use /dev/fb0 for this, but an
- * alterative path for cache-inhibited memory may be provided).
- *
- * One way to get cache-inhibited memory is to use the "mem" kernel parameter
- * to limit the kernel to less memory than actually exists. Addresses above
- * the limit may still be accessed but will be treated as cache-inhibited. For
- * example, if there is actually 4GB of memory and the parameter "mem=3GB" is
- * used, memory from address 0xC0000000 onwards is treated as cache-inhibited.
- * To access this region /dev/mem is used. The kernel should be configured
- * without CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM. In this case use:
- * ./alignment_handler /dev/mem 0xc0000000
+ * alterative path for cache-inhibited memory may be provided, e.g. memtrace).
*
* We initialise the source buffers, then use whichever set of load/store
* instructions is under test to copy bytes from the source buffers to the
