+skiboot-5.4.5
+=============
+
+skiboot-5.4.5 was released on Friday June 9th, 2017. It replaces
+:ref:`skiboot-5.4.4` as the current stable release in the 5.4.x series.
+
+Over :ref:`skiboot-5.4.4`, we have a small number of bug fixes:
+
+
+- On FSP platforms: notify FSP of Platform Log ID after Host Initiated Reset Reload
+  Trigging a Host Initiated Reset (when the host detects the FSP has gone
+  out to lunch and should be rebooted), would cause "Unknown Command" messages
+  to appear in the OPAL log.
+
+  This patch implements those messages.
+
+  Log showing unknown command: ::
+
+    / # cat /sys/firmware/opal/msglog | grep -i ,3
+    [  110.232114723,3] FSP: fsp_trigger_reset() entry
+    [  188.431793837,3] FSP #0: Link down, starting R&R
+    [  464.109239162,3] FSP #0: Got XUP with no pending message !
+    [  466.340598554,3] FSP-DPO: Unknown command 0xce0900
+    [  466.340600126,3] FSP: Unhandled message ce0900
+
+- hw/i2c: Fix early lock drop
+
+  When interacting with an I2C master the p8-i2c driver (common to p9)
+  aquires a per-master lock which it holds for the duration of it's
+  interaction with the master.  Unfortunately, when
+  p8_i2c_check_initial_status() detects that the master is busy with
+  another transaction it drops the lock and returns OPAL_BUSY. This is
+  contrary to the driver's locking strategy which requires that the
+  caller aquire and drop the lock. This leads to a crash due to the
+  double unlock(), which skiboot treats as fatal.
+
+- head.S: store all of LR and CTR
+
+  When saving the CTR and LR registers the skiboot exception handlers use the
+  'stw' instruction which only saves the lower 32 bits of the register. Given
+  these are both 64 bit registers this leads to some strange register dumps,
+  for example: ::
+
+    ***********************************************
+    Unexpected exception 200 !
+    SRR0 : 0000000030016968 SRR1 : 9000000000201000
+    HSRR0: 0000000000000180 HSRR1: 9000000000001000
+    LR   : 3003438830823f50 CTR  : 3003438800000018
+    CFAR : 00000000300168fc
+    CR   : 40004208  XER: 00000000
+
+  In this dump the upper 32 bits of LR and CTR are actually stack gunk
+  which obscures the underlying issue.
