I then applied the following patches:
- 46a984ffb86 [PATCH] s390/cpum_cf: Add support for CPU-MF SVN 6
- 820bace7347 [PATCH] s390/cpumf: Add extended counter set definitions for model 8561 and 8562
Both patches applied with some noise about line mismatch line numbers, such as:
It turns out that you do do not need this patch:
- 1c410fd6a56 [PATCH] s390/cpum_cf_diag: Add support for CPU-MF SVN 6
It requires a predecessor patch which introduced a new CPU Measurement
facility counter device driver for s390 with kernel 5.1:
- fe5908bccc56 s390/cpum_cf_diag: Add support for s390 counter facility diagnostic trace
We do not need this to be backported to 4.15. So omit commit 1c410fd6a56.
I can sent you the remaining 2 patches reworked to apply cleanly without noise,
however with a different commit id. Let me know if you want them.
