Hi Greg/Sasha,
Please queue up these powerpc patches for 4.4 if you have no objections.
why? Do you, or someone else, really care about spectre issues in 4.4? Who is using ppc for 4.4 becides a specific enterprise distro (and they don't seem to be pulling in my stable updates anyway...)?
Someone asked for it, but TBH I can't remember who it was. I can chase it up if you like.
Yeah it was a request from one of the distros. They plan to take it once it lands in 4.4 stable.
Ok, thanks for confirming, I'll work on this this afternoon.
