4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman gregkh@linuxfoundation.org
This reverts commit d412deb85a4aada382352a8202beb7af8921cd53 which is commit 6f5b9f018f4c7686fd944d920209d1382d320e4e upstream.
It breaks the powerpc build, so drop it from the tree until a fix goes upstream.
Is this necessary on 4.20? The build failures I reported were on 4.19 only. The 4.20.2-rc1 kernel for my Powermac G5 builds with and without that patch, both boot fine, no visible differences. Again however, Breno is authoritative here.
Aside, I also checked 4.19.15-rc1, builds and runs without any noticeable problems.
