[PATCH 4.20 41/65] Revert "powerpc/tm: Unset MSR[TS] if not recheckpointing"

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jan 11 2019 - 09:43:17 EST


4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This reverts commit d412deb85a4aada382352a8202beb7af8921cd53 which is
commit 6f5b9f018f4c7686fd944d920209d1382d320e4e upstream.

It breaks the powerpc build, so drop it from the tree until a fix goes
upstream.
