Subject: [PATCH v2 09/14] KVM: arm64: Remove support for a big-endian hypervisor object
Date: Mon,  7 Sep 2026 17:37:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907163726.17104-10-will@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907163726.17104-1-will@kernel.org>

Big-endian support on arm64 depends on BROKEN. In preparation for
removing the dead code altogether, remove the support for generating
ELF relocations for a big-endian hypervisor object and drop the unused
big-endian spinlock definition from nVHE.
