Yes, all these three patch series are based off powerpc/next and they do
depend on each other, as they are all about powerpc kprobes.

Patches 1 and 2 in this series touch generic kprobes bits and Michael
was planning on putting those in a topic branch so that -tip can pull
them too.

Apart from those two, your optprobes patch 3/5
(https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/749934/) also touches generic code,
but it is needed for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE on powerpc. So, I've posted that
as part of my series. We could probably also put that in the topic
branch.


Thanks,
Naveen
