Hi All,

I use the Nemo board with a PASemi PA6T CPU and have some issues
since the first PowerPC updates for the kernel 6.1.

I successfully compiled the git kernel with the first PowerPC updates
two days ago.

Unfortunately this kernel is really dangerous. Many things for
example Network Manager and LightDM don't work anymore and produced
several gigabyte of config files till the partition has been filled.

I deleted some files like the resolv.conf that had a size over 200
GB!

Unfortunately, MintPPC was still damaged. For example LightDM doesn't
work anymore and the MATE desktop doesn't display any icons anymore
because Caja wasn't able to reserve memory anymore.

In this case, bisecting isn't an option and I have to wait some
weeks. It is really difficult to find the issue if the userland will
damaged again and again.

Could you try with
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linuxppc-dev/patch/20221012035335.866440-1-npiggin@gmail.com/
to see if your issues are related to that?
