Linus Torvalds 968b803324 powerpc updates for 6.8
- Add initial support to recognise the HeXin C2000 processor.
 
  - Add papr-vpd and papr-sysparm character device drivers for VPD & sysparm
    retrieval, so userspace tools can be adapted to avoid doing raw firmware
    calls from userspace.
 
  - Sched domains optimisations for shared processor partitions on P9/P10.
 
  - A series of optimisations for KVM running as a nested HV under PowerVM.
 
  - Other small features and fixes.
