Hi all,

After merging all the trees, today's linux-next qemu run (powerpc
pseries_le_defconfig with kvm) crashed like this:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!

Reverting commits

  55a02e6ea958 ("powerpc/code-patching: Use temporary mm for Radix MMU")
  d0462ee02fdd ("powerpc/code-patching: Consolidate and cache per-cpu patching context")
(this second just because it follows the other and modifies the same file)

fixes the panic.  I have done that in linux-next today.
