Presently ima_get_kexec_buffer() doesn't check if the previous kernel's
ima-kexec-buffer lies outside the addressable memory range. This can result
in a kernel panic if the new kernel is booted with 'mem=X' arg and the
ima-kexec-buffer was allocated beyond that range by the previous kernel.
The pan
When CONFIG_PPC_64S_HASH_MMU is not set, slice.c is not built and
arch_get_unmapped_area() and arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown() are
not provided because RADIX uses the generic ones.
Therefore, neither set HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA nor
HAVE_ARCH_UNMAPPED_AREA_TOPDOWN.

Hi Helge, do you think would be possible to still pick this one for
v5.19 or do you prefer to hold for the next release?
I'm working on V2, so if it's merged for 5.19 I won't send it agai

These patches are rebased on top of objtool/core
branch of the tip tree, and work only on ppc64le
for now.
Note: With this patch set, there are still some
warnings seen with ppc64le kernel build.

Architectures can select HAVE_NOP_MCOUNT if they choose
to nop out mcount call sites. If that config option is
selected, then --mnop is passed as an option to objtool,
along with --mcount.
Also, make sure that --mnop can be passed as an option
to objtool only when --mcount is passed.
Signed-off-b
This patch makes sure objtool runs only on the object files
that have ftrace enabled, instead of running on all the object
files.

If early cpu to node mapping finds an invalid node id, return
the first online node instead of node 0. On ppc, we can find node 0

numa_setup_cpu can return nodes that are not online. But setup_node_data()
only initialize NODE_DATA for only online numa nodes. Hence avoid returning
