Paul Mackerras 7a70d7288c powerpc/64: Invalidate process table caching after setting process table
The POWER9 MMU reads and caches entries from the process table.
When we kexec from one kernel to another, the second kernel sets
its process table pointer but doesn't currently do anything to
make the CPU invalidate any cached entries from the old process table.
This adds a tlbie (TLB invalidate entry) instruction with parameters
to invalidate caching of the process table after the new process
table is installed.

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.
