This series adds a few missing bits added to recent pseries
H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS and implements them, also removes
a restriction from powernv for some of the flushes.
This is tested mianly in qemu where I just submitted a patch
that adds support for these bits (not upstream yet).
Nicholas Piggin (4):
powerpc/pseries: Get entry and uaccess flush required bits from
H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS
powerpc/security: Add a security feature for STF barrier
powerpc/pesries: Get STF barrier requirement from
H_GET_CPU_CHARACTERISTICS
powerpc/powernv: Remove POWER9 PVR version check for entry and uaccess
flushes
