This release is an up-rev of the v5 patches. No additional features have
been added. Some changes were mode to function names and some changes to
Kconfig dependencies. Also updated the config conversion for mips.

There are a number of people who have expressed interest in these
patches either by asking for them to be merge or testing them. If
people are so inclined please continue to request them to be merge
or to ask the status of the next release. It's helpful to motivate me to
release them again and for the maintainers to see the interest
generated.

These patches have been used by Cisco Systems, Inc. on millions of
released products to great effect. Hopefully they can be used by the
entire Linux eco system.

My apologies on the length between releases. I will try to release more
often.

v5 release changes. Generally a rebase from v4.

* Modified OF changes to move the ugly code into the cmdline.h

* Minor compliation update in arm64. Added ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ in
  a few places.

* Worked around arm64 kaslr_early.c.

	This code needs some additional review and consideration. 
	It appears this code is missing the opposite option to nokaslr
	which is kaslr.disabled=1/0 which would allow kaslr to be turn
	back on later in the command line. For example,

	console=ttyS0 nokaslr root=/dev/ram0 nosmp kaslr.disabled=0 loglevel=7
	
	On arm64 in arch/arm64/kernel/idreg-override.c this is parsed correctly
	to turn on kaslr, but the kaslr_early.c is missing this logic.
	Doing this results in kaslr getting disabled with the following message,

	KASLR disabled due to lack of seed

	Even when there is a seed in the device tree.	

	So change to the generic command line would leave built in command
	lines with nokaslr with no option to re-enable kaslr in in the bootloader
	arguments.

v4 release changes

* Updated insert-sys-cert tool to change command line symbols after
  compilation.

	This tool is used to release binary kernels internally to companies
	and then later insert certificates for each product by consumers of
	the binary kernel. Cisco uses this tool for this purpose.

	Cisco has a similar need for the command line to be modified on a
	binary released kernels similar to how certificates are setup.

* Added global symbols to hold append and prepend values.

	These changes follow the system certificate code to allow the
	insert-sys-cert tool to be used.

* Added a test case to confirm functionality.

	Seemed sensible to add this to make sure everything is working.

* Dropped powerpc changes

	Christophe Leroy has reservations about the features for powerpc. I
	don't think his reservations are founded, and these changes should
	fully work on powerpc. However, I dropped these changes so Christophe
	can have more time to get comfortable with the changes.


Enjoy!
