+Subject: [PATCH 7/9] powerpc/kexec: Reset HILE before kexec_sequence
+
+On powernv secondary cpus are returned to OPAL, and will then enter
+the target kernel in big-endian. However if it is set the HILE bit
+will persist, causing the first exception in the target kernel to be
+delivered in litte-endian regardless of the current endianess.
+
+If running on top of OPAL make sure the HILE bit is reset once we've
+finished waiting for all of the secondaries to be returned to OPAL.
