  powerpc/powernv: Support firmware disable of RFI flush (2018-02-23 16:55:42 +1100)

----------------------------------------------------------------
powerpc fixes for 4.16 #4

Add handling for a missing instruction in our 32-bit BPF JIT so that it can be
used for seccomp filtering.

Add a missing NULL pointer check before a function call in new EEH code.

Fix an error path in the new ocxl driver to correctly return EFAULT.

The support for the new ibm,drc-info device tree property turns out to need
several fixes, so for now we just stop advertising to firmware that we support
it until the bugs can be ironed out.

One fix for the new drmem code which was incorrectly modifying the device tree
in place.

Finally two fixes for the RFI flush support, so that firmware can advertise to
us that it should be disabled entirely so as not to affect performance.

Thanks to:
  Bharata B Rao, Frederic Barrat, Juan J. Alvarez, Mark Lord, Michael Bringmann.
