[PATCH 25/28] powerpc: Add kconfig option for the systemcfg page

From: Thomas Weißschuh <hidden>
Date: 2024-10-10 07:02:20
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-mips, linux-riscv, linux-s390, lkml, loongarch
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

The systemcfg page through procfs is only a backwards-compatible
interface for very old applications.
Make it possible to be disabled.

This also creates a convenient config #define to guard any accesses to
the systemcfg page.
