[FSL P50x0] Xorg always restarts again and again after the the PowerPC updates 5.13-1

[Christian Zigotzky]

Hi Christophe,

Thanks for your answer but I think I don't know how it works with the 
cherry-pick.

$ git bisect start
$ git bisect good 68a32ba14177d4a21c4a9a941cf1d7aea86d436f
$ git bisect bad c70a4be130de333ea079c59da41cc959712bb01c

Bisecting: 2462 revisions left to test after this (roughly 11 steps)
[47a6959fa331fe892a4fc3b48ca08e92045c6bda] netfilter: allow to turn off 
xtables compat layer

$ git cherry-pick 525642624783
error: could not apply 525642624783... powerpc/signal32: Fix erroneous 
SIGSEGV on RT signal return
hint: after resolving the conflicts, mark the corrected paths
hint: with 'git add <paths>' or 'git rm <paths>'
hint: and commit the result with 'git commit'

How can I fix this error?

Thanks,
Christian
