This patch enables 32bit PPC's (with 36bit physical address space, e.g.
IBM/AMCC PPC44x) to run with >= 4GB of RAM. Mostly its just replacing types
(unsigned long -> phys_addr_t).
Tested on an AMCC Katmai with 4GB of DDR2.

This is some preliminary work to improve TLB management on SW loaded
TLB powerpc platforms. This introduce support for non-atomic PTE
operations in pgtable-ppc32.h and removes write back to the PTE from
the TLB miss handlers. In addition, the DSI interrupt code no longer
tries to fixup write permission, this is left to generic code, and
_PAGE_HWWRITE is gone.

Update the association of a memory section with a numa node that
occurs during hotplug add of a memory section. This adds a check in
the hot_add_scn_to_nid() routine for the
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node in the device tree. If
present the new hot_add_drconf_scn_to_nid() routine is invoked, which
can properly parse the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node of the
device tree and make the proper numa node associations.
This also introduces the valid_hot_add_scn() routine as a helper
function for code that is common to the hot_add_scn_to_nid() and
hot_add_drconf_scn_to_nid() routines.

This updates the device tree manipulation routines so that memory
add/remove of lmbs represented under the
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node of the device tree invokes the
hotplug notifier chain.
This change is needed because of the change in the way memory is
represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node. All lmbs
are described in the ibm,dynamic-memory property instead of having a
separate node for each lmb as in previous device tree layouts. This
requires the update_node() routine to check for updates to the
ibm,dynamic-memory property and invoke the hotplug notifier chain.
This also updates the pseries hotplug notifier to be able to gather information
for lmbs represented under the ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node and
have the lmbs added/removed.

Use the base address of the lmb to derive the starting page frame number
instead of trying to extract it from the drc index of the lmb. The drc
index should not be used for this as it will, and did, break.
Until this point, systems that have had memory represented in the device
tree with a node for each lmb the drc index would (luckily) closely
track the base address of the lmb. For example a lmb with a drc index
of 8000000a would have a base address of a0000000. This correlation
allowed the current code to derive the starting page frame number from
the drc inddex
Device tree layouts where lmbs are represented under the
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node in the ibm,dynamic-memory
property do not have this correlation between the drc index and base
address of the lmb.

Allow the phandle passed to the /proc/ppc64/ofdt file to be specified
in formats other than decimal. This allows us to easily specify phandle
values in hex that would otherwise appear as negative integers.
This is an issue on systems where the value of
/proc/device-tree/ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory.ibm,phandle is
fffffff9. Having to pass this to the ofdt file as a string results in
a large negative number, and simple_strtoul() does not handle negative

To allow for a single kernel image on e500 v1/v2/mc we need to fixup lwsync
at runtime. On e500v1/v2 lwsync causes an illop so we need to patch up
the code. We default to 'sync' since that is always safe and if the cpu
is capable we will replace 'sync' with 'lwsync'.
We introduce CPU_FTR_LWSYNC as a way to determine at runtime if this is
needed. This flag could be moved elsewhere since we dont really use it
for the normal CPU_FTR purpose.
Finally we only store the relative offset in the fixup section to keep it
as small as possible rather than using a full fixup_entry.

Currently when a 32 bit process is exec'd on a powerpc 64 bit host the
value in the top three bytes of the personality is clobbered. patch
adds a check in the SET_PERSONALITY macro that will carry all the
values in the top three bytes across the exec.
These three bytes currently carry flags to disable address randomisation,
limit the address space, force zeroing of an mmapped page, etc. Should an
application set any of these bits they will be maintained and honoured on
homogeneous environment but discarded and ignored on a heterogeneous
environment. So if an application requires all mmapped pages to be initialised
to zero and a wrapper is used to setup the personality and exec the target,
these flags will remain set on an all 32 or all 64 bit envrionment, but they
will be lost in the exec on a mixed 32/64 bit environment. Losing these bits
means that the same application would behave differently in different
environments. Tested on a POWER5+ machine with 64bit kernel and a mixed
64/32 bit user space.

The implementation of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() directly calls
ptep_set_wrprotect() to mark a hugepte write protected. However this
call is not appropriate on ppc64 kernels as this is a small page only
implementation. This can lead to the hash not being flushed correctly
when a mapping is being converted to COW, allowing processes to continue
using the original copy.
Currently huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() unconditionally calls
ptep_set_wrprotect(). This is fine on ppc32 kernels as this call is
generic. On 64 bit this is implemented as:
pte_update(mm, addr, ptep, _PAGE_RW, 0);
On ppc64 this last parameter is the page size and is passed directly on
to hpte_need_flush():
hpte_need_flush(mm, addr, ptep, old, huge);
And this directly affects the page size we pass to flush_hash_page():
flush_hash_page(vaddr, rpte, psize, ssize, 0);
As this changes the way the hash is calculated we will flush the wrong
pages, potentially leaving live hashes to the original page.
Move the definition of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() to the 32/64 bit specific
headers.

DMA buffer
On PowerPC processors with non-coherent cache architectures the DMA
subsystem calls invalidate_dcache_range() before performing a DMA read
operation. If the address and length of the DMA buffer are not aligned
to a cache-line boundary this can result in memory outside of the DMA
buffer being invalidated in the cache. If this memory has an
uncommitted store then the data will be lost and a subsequent read of
that address will result in an old value being returned from main memory.
Only when the DMA buffer starts on a cache-line boundary and is an exact
mutiple of the cache-line size can invalidate_dcache_range() be called,
otherwise flush_dcache_range() must be called. flush_dcache_range()
will first flush uncommitted writes, and then invalidate the cache.

This patch extends the floating point save and restore code to use the
VSX load/stores when VSX is available. This will make FP context
save/restore marginally slower on FP only code, when VSX is available,
as it has to load/store 128bits rather than just 64bits.
Mixing FP, VMX and VSX code will get constant architected state.
The signals interface is extended to enable access to VSR 0-31
doubleword 1 after discussions with tool chain maintainers. Backward
compatibility is maintained.
The ptrace interface is also extended to allow access to VSR 0-31 full
registers.

VSX has 64 128bit registers. The first 32 regs overlap with the FP

Currently we set the start of the .text section to be 4Mb for pSeries.
In situations where the zImage is > 8Mb we'll fail to boot (due to

We still will not be able to load large zImage unless we also move OF,

The current feature section logic only supports nop'ing out code, this means
if you want to choose at runtime between instruction sequences, one or both
cases will have to execute the nop'ed out contents of the other section, eg:
BEGIN_FTR_SECTION
or 1,1,1
END_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(FOO)
BEGIN_FTR_SECTION
or 2,2,2
END_FTR_SECTION_IFCLR(FOO)
and the resulting code will be either,
or 1,1,1
nop
or,
nop
or 2,2,2
For small code segments this is fine, but for larger code blocks and in
performance criticial code segments, it would be nice to avoid the nops.
This commit starts to implement logic to allow the following:
BEGIN_FTR_SECTION
or 1,1,1
FTR_SECTION_ELSE
or 2,2,2
ALT_FTR_SECTION_END_IFSET(FOO)
and the resulting code will be:
or 1,1,1
or,
or 2,2,2
We achieve this by extending the existing FTR macros. The current feature
section semantic just becomes a special case, ie. if the else case is empty
we nop out the default case.
The key limitation is that the size of the else case must be less than or
equal to the size of the default case. If the else case is smaller the
remainder of the section is nop'ed.
We let the linker put the else case code in with the rest of the text,
so that relative branches from the else case are more likley to link,
this has the disadvantage that we can't free the unused else cases.
This commit introduces the required macro and linker script changes, but
does not enable the patching of the alternative sections.
We also need to update two hand-made section entries in reg.h and timex.h
