This patch series adds support for the new ABI, LPAR support
for H_SET_MODE and finally adds a kconfig option and defconfig.

ABIv2 support was recently committed to binutils and gcc, and
should be merged into glibc soon. There are a number of
very nice improvements including the removal of function
descriptors. Rusty's kernel patches allow binaries of either
ABI to work, easing the transition.

Alistair Popple (1):
  powerpc: Don't use ELFv2 ABI to build the kernel

Anton Blanchard (4):
  powerpc/pseries: Fix endian issues in pseries EEH code
  pseries: Add H_SET_MODE to change exception endianness
  powerpc: Add CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN kernel config option.
  powerpc: Add pseries_le_defconfig

Rusty Russell (4):
  powerpc: Add TIF_ELF2ABI flag.
  powerpc: Set eflags correctly for ELF ABIv2 core dumps.
  powerpc: ELF2 binaries launched directly.
  powerpc: ELF2 binaries signal handling
