commit <249fad734a25> ""powerpc/perf: Disable trace_imc pmu" disables IMC(In-Memory Collection) trace-mode in kernel, since frequent mode switching between accumulation mode and trace mode via the spr LDBAR in the hardware can trigger a checkstop(system crash). Patch to re-enable imc-trace mode in kernel. The previous patch(1/2) in this series will address the mode switching issue by implementing a global lock, and will restrict the usage of accumulation and trace-mode at a time.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
