Merge tag 'powerpc-5.9-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
- Revert our removal of PROT_SAO, at least one user expressed an interest in using it on Power9. Instead don't allow it to be used in guests unless enabled explicitly at compile time.
- A fix for a crash introduced by a recent change to FP handling.
- Revert a change to our idle code that left Power10 with no idle support.
- One minor fix for the new scv system call path to set PPR.
- Fix a crash in our "generic" PMU if branch stack events were enabled.
- A fix for the IMC PMU, to correctly identify host kernel samples.
- The ADB_PMU powermac code was found to be incompatible with VMAP_STACK, so make them incompatible in Kconfig until the code can be fixed.
- A build fix in drivers/video/fbdev/controlfb.c, and a documentation fix.

Merge tag 'powerpc-5.9-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
- Add support for (optionally) using queued spinlocks & rwlocks.
- Support for a new faster system call ABI using the scv instruction on Power9 or later.
- Drop support for the PROT_SAO mmap/mprotect flag as it will be unsupported on Power10 and future processors, leaving us with no way to implement the functionality it requests. This risks breaking userspace, though we believe it is unused in practice.
- A bug fix for, and then the removal of, our custom stack expansion checking. We now allow stack expansion up to the rlimit, like other architectures.
- Remove the remnants of our (previously disabled) topology update code, which tried to react to NUMA layout changes on virtualised systems, but was prone to crashes and other problems.
- Add PMU support for Power10 CPUs.
- A change to our signal trampoline so that we don't unbalance the link stack (branch return predictor) in the signal delivery path.
- Lots of other cleanups, refactorings, smaller features and so on as usual.
