Hi,
I would like to apply backports of the TX support patches to 4.8
branch. We released 4.8 with EC12 support already but the support is
somewhat incomplete without having TX. With these patches we will
have full EC12 support in 4.8.
The patches apply without changes but I had to add some configure
additions for auxval from Peter Bergners patch for Power.

Torvald, could you please consider adding backports of the following
