Currently if you disable CONFIG_PPC_RADIX_MMU you'll crash on boot on a P9. This is because we still set MMU_FTR_TYPE_RADIX via ibm,pa-features and MMU_FTR_TYPE_RADIX is what's used for code patching in much of the asm code (ie. slb_miss_realmode) This patch fixes the problem by stopping MMU_FTR_TYPE_RADIX from being set from ibm.pa-features. We may eventually end up removing the CONFIG_PPC_RADIX_MMU option completely but until then this fixes the issue.

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.
