Re: [PATCH 10/13] powerpc/64s: idle simplify KVM idle on POWER9

Nicholas Piggin [off-list ref] writes:

POWER9 CPUs have independent MMU contexts per thread so KVM
does not have to bring sibling threads into real-mode when
switching MMU mode to guest. This can simplify POWER9 sleep/wake
paths and avoids hwsyncs.

This will need to go via, or at least be shared with Paul's tree.

So if it's possible, splitting it out of this series would be easier.
