The subject doesn't actively describe what the patch does, maybe
change it to something like:

  powerpc: Add support for HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE

or maybe

  powerpc: Add support for livepatch consistency model
Maybe $SUBJECT? You're absolutely right, the old subject was just a
leftover of my original attempt to just set the flag, before Miroslav
corrected me. I just kept on copying it without a second thought. Thanks
for noting.
Generally we refer to it as "the consistency model".  So I would
propose a minor edit:

  ppc64le/livepatch: Implement reliable stack tracing for the consistency model
We use "powerpc" as the prefix.

So I've used:

  powerpc/livepatch: Implement reliable stack tracing for the consistency model
