[PATCH] powerpc/uaccess: Don't set KUEP by default on book3s/32

From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Wed Apr 15 2020 - 10:57:34 EST


On book3s/32, KUEP is an heavy process as it requires to
set/unset the NX bit in each of the 12 user segments
everytime the kernel is entered/exited from/to user space.

Don't select KUEP by default on book3s/32.
