Tested-by: Venkat Rao Bagalkote <venkat88@linux.ibm.com>

I applied the patch series on top of mainline and verified that the kernel
builds and boots successfully.

I also ran the following test suites on both RADIX (POWER11) and HASH 
(POWER9)
MMU configurations:

   - tools/testing/selftests/mm
   - tools/testing/selftests/memory-hotplug
   - tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/mm
   - tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/cache_shape
   - tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/copyloops

In addition, I executed basic sanity and stress tests, including:
stutter, eatmemory, hugepage_sanity, fork_mem, memory_api mprotect,
vatest, and several transparent-hugepage sanity checks.

All tests passed without regressions.

Regards,
Venkat
