Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Uncomment and make enable_kernel_vsx() routine available
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2015 13:51:01 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150713165057.GA6594@bluepex.com> (raw)

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.
