From 0c83c8ac407e4d889c4c0541070c191a3d977299 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Huth Date: Tue, 19 Oct 2021 09:25:52 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] doc: Remove obsolete README.440-DDR-performance file The PPC 440 support has been removed in commit 98f705c9cefd ("powerpc: remove 4xx support") already, so this file is certainly not required anymore.
