[PATCH 2/2] powerpc/64s: Disallow PROT_SAO in LPARs by default

From: Shawn Anastasio <hidden>
Date: 2020-08-21 01:14:49
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

Since migration of guests using SAO to ISA 3.1 hosts may cause issues,
disable PROT_SAO in LPARs by default and introduce a new Kconfig option
PPC_PROT_SAO_LPAR to allow users to enable it if desired.
