I squashed it in my RFC v2

[PATCH 2/4] powerpc/64: Setup KUP before feature fixups

2018-11-22 Thread Russell Currey
The subsequent implementation of KUAP for radix makes use of a MMU
feature in order to patch out assembly when KUAP is disabled or
unsupported.  This won't work unless there's an entry point for
KUP support before the feature magic happens, so relocate
