Yes, all these three patch series are based off powerpc/next and they do 
depend on each other, as they are all about powerpc kprobes.

Patches 1 and 2 in this series touch generic kprobes bits and Michael 
was planning on putting those in a topic branch so that -tip can pull 
them too.

Apart from those two, your optprobes patch 3/5 
(https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/749934/) also touches generic code, 
but it is needed for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE on powerpc. So, I've posted that 
as part of my series. We could probably also put that in the topic 
branch.

Thanks,
Naveen
