Subject[PATCH 4.1 039/159] powerpc: Uncomment and make enable_kernel_vsx() routine available
Date
4.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Leonidas Da Silva Barbosa <leosilva@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit 72cd7b44bc99376b3f3c93cedcd052663fcdf705 upstream.

enable_kernel_vsx() function was commented since anything was using
it. However, vmx-crypto driver uses VSX instructions which are
only available if VSX is enable. Otherwise it rises an exception oops.

This patch uncomment enable_kernel_vsx() routine and makes it available.
