The flush_tlb hook in cpu_spec was introduced as a generic function hook
to invalidate TLBs. But the current implementation of flush_tlb hook

The release_and_free_resource() function tests whether its argument is NULL
and then returns immediately. Thus the test around the call is not needed.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

Since both ppc and ppc64 have LE variants which are now reported by uname, add
that flag (__AUDIT_ARCH_LE) to syscall_get_arch() and add AUDIT_ARCH_PPC*LE
variants.
Without this, perf trace and auditctl fail.
Mainline kernel reports ppc64le (per a058801) but there is no matching

This patch adds four new ELF core note sections for powerpc
transactional memory and one new ELF core note section for
powerpc general miscellaneous debug registers. These addition
of new ELF core note sections extends the existing ELF ABI
without affecting it in any manner.
