[PATCH v2 06/10] powerpc: Implement custom CC_CAN_LINK

Thomas Weißschuh thomas.weissschuh at linutronix.de
Wed Oct 15 00:05:21 AEDT 2025


The generic CC_CAN_LINK detection does not handle different byte orders.
This may lead to userprogs which are not actually runnable on the target
kernel.

Use architecture-specific logic supporting byte orders instead.
