- I also like to live dangerously. (Re-enable RCU_FAST_NO_HZ which has been off
since April 2012. Also enable NO_HZ_FULL on x86_64.)
- I added zipped modules ages ago, remove it from TODO.
The powerpc secondary arch team has disabled all ppc32 builds in koji for
F21 and beyond:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ppc/2014-May/002801.html
FESCo also recently said that dropped or new architectures must essentially
prove they have an active and viable effort behind them before being
considered for Secondary Arch support. This effort has not materialized in
the interim since the current powerpc team dropped ppc32.
There's little point in keeping support for ppc32 support in the kernel
package when it will never be built. This also removes the -smp variant
and with_smp* support, as that was only used on ppc32.
New kexec syscall (kexec_file_load()) can perform bzimage signature
verification.
This will re-enable kexec/kdump on secureboot systems using new syscall.
Currently kexec/kdump is disabled on secureboot systems.
User space (kexec-tools) will be modifed to automatically detect that
running system has secureboot enabled and use new syscall instead of
old one.

The with_extra switch was originally added with the addition of the
modules-extra subpackage. However, it never really worked. If you build
with it disabled, the subpackage is omitted but the modules that would be
included in it would still be built. That can lead to errors further in the
build when we're moving things around in the -core and -modules subpackages.
Since it doesn't actually save build time at all, and it leads to build
failures for no real gain, drop it.
Do a couple things here:
- Split the mega-patches into individual patches. Should help with rebasing.
- Make all patches 'git am' acceptable.
There should be no functional or actual code differences from before
