Merge tag 'powerpc-5.7-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
"Slightly late as I had to rebase mid-week to insert a bug fix:
- A large series from Nick for 64-bit to further rework our exception
vectors, and rewrite portions of the syscall entry/exit and
interrupt return in C. The result is much easier to follow code
that is also faster in general.
- Cleanup of our ptrace code to split various parts out that had
become badly intertwined with #ifdefs over the years.
- Changes to our NUMA setup under the PowerVM hypervisor which should
hopefully avoid non-sensical topologies which can lead to warnings
from the workqueue code and other problems.
- MAINTAINERS updates to remove some of our old orphan entries and
update the status of others.
- Quite a few other small changes and fixes all over the map.
