This is the beginning of work to come up with a more relevant kprobe
blacklist on powerpc. In this series, we primarily blacklist exception
vectors and kernel entry code.

Naveen N. Rao (4):
  powerpc: asm: introduce new macros for assembly globals
  powerpc: kprobe: add arch specific blacklist
  powerpc: mm/slb: convert slb_low.S to use the new macros
  powerpc: mm/slb: blacklist symbols from kprobe
