So another option is to just drop the arch/powerpc part of the patch
from -mm. It's up to you, there's no arch dependent code in the
syscall though and the config option is not specific to x86 either. I
enabled the syscall on powerpc in my tree to facilitate the testing so
the patchset included that change to arch/powerpc, but it would be ok
to enable the syscall only later upstream, after it has been tested.

Thanks,
Andrea
