Merge tag 'powerpc-4.18-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "One fix for a regression in a recent TLB flush optimisation, which
  caused us to incorrectly not send TLB invalidations to coprocessors.

  Thanks to Frederic Barrat, Nicholas Piggin, Vaibhav Jain"
