From: Michael Ellerman mpe@ellerman.id.au
commit 236003e6b5443c45c18e613d2b0d776a9f87540e upstream.
Expose the state of the RFI flush (enabled/disabled) via debugfs, and allow it to be enabled/disabled at runtime.
eg: $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush 1 $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush 0
