If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3b3ef972b5bdb1cbb316047de1a3acb42a6432c7 Author: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Aug 29 12:51:06 2023 +0200 kbuild: dummy-tools: make MPROFILE_KERNEL checks work on BE [ Upstream commit bfb41e46d0b040ae83c1c4a50292298208b10f73 ] Commit 2eab791f940b ("kbuild: dummy-tools: support MPROFILE_KERNEL checks for ppc") added support for ppc64le's checks for -mprofile-kernel. Now, commit aec0ba7472a7 ("powerpc/64: Use -mprofile-kernel for big endian ELFv2 kernels") added support for -mprofile-kernel even on big-endian ppc. So lift the check in gcc-check-mprofile-kernel.sh to support big-endian too.
