Functionality wise it requires patch 359e4284a3f37aba7fd06d993863de2509d86f54 from the powerpc-next tree to provide the HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API required for CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT. The code will still compile cleanly without it and will fail gracefully at runtime on the missing CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENT support as before. Part 1 of the patch series moves the arch dependent x86 32 and 64 bit DWARF register number mappings out into a separate arch directory and adds the necessary Makefile foo to use it. Part 2 of the patch series adds the PowerPC mappings. Thanks, -Ian
