Subject: [PATCH 4.9 35/61] powerpc/powernv: Set or clear security feature flags

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@...erman.id.au>

commit 77addf6e95c8689e478d607176b399a6242a777e upstream.

Now that we have feature flags for security related things, set or
clear them based on what we see in the device tree provided by
firmware.
