Is this patch not complete, then? It is up to the PowerPC maintainers
what they want to merge, of course, but I don't think we should add
the line in `Documentation/` if it does not work yet.
By the way, regarding that:
> +``powerpc`` Experimental 32-bit Big Endian only.
These levels are mapped to `MAINTAINERS` ones:
Below is a general summary of architectures that currently work. Level of
support corresponds to ``S`` values in the ``MAINTAINERS`` file.
But there is no "Experimental" level there. The idea is to know if
there is someone being paid to work on this, or not, etc.
This should also be changed in the other patch that adds ppc64le --
e.g. Mukesh, is IBM supporting this?
I guess it may be simpler to not add this line here until it works
properly, and only add the ppc64le one in the next patch, with a fixed
level to one of the `MAINTAINERS` ones.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Miguel
