Patch 2 fails to apply on v5.16-rc4. Can you please also include git tree/branch while posting the patches ?

Secondly, I see that you add the powerpc support in Patch 2 and then modify it again in Patch 5 after cleanup. Why not add the support for powerpc after the clean up ? This will reduce some rework and also probably simplify patches.
