This changes the way we calculate how much space to reserve for the
pHyp dump. Currently we reserve 256MB only. With this change, the
code first checks to see if an amount has been specified on the boot
command line with the "phyp_dump_reserve_size" option, and if so, uses
that much.
Otherwise it computes 5% of total ram and rounds it down to a multiple
of 256MB, and uses the larger of that or 256MB.
This is for large systems with a lot of memory (10GB or more). The
aim is to have more space available for the kernel on reboot on
machines with more resources. Although the dump will be collected
pretty fast and the memory released really early on allowing the
machine to have the full memory available, this alleviates any issues
that can be caused by having way too little memory on very very large
systems during those few minutes.

* Removed defines KERNEL_PGD_PTRS & USER_PGD_PTRS since they aren't
used anywhere
* Changed pmd_page macro to use pfn_to_page so we get proper behavior
if ARCH_PFN_OFFSET is set as well if we use a different memory model
on ppc32.

Now that we properly set the physical address in the program header of the
vmlinux ELF we can extract it to properly set the load and entry point for
u-boot uImages. Before we always hard coded the load & entry point to 0.
However there are situations that the kernel may be built with a non-zero
physical address.
We use objdump to extract the PHDR. We assume that there is only one
PHDR in the vmlinux of type LOAD.

We can set LOAD_OFFSET and use the AT attribute on sections and the
linker will properly set the physical address of the LOAD program
header for us.
This allows us to know how the PHYSICAL_START the user configured a
kernel with by just looking at the resulting vmlinux ELF.
This is pretty much stolen from how x86 does things in their linker
scripts.

Moved phys_addr_t out of mmu-*.h and into asm/types.h so we can use it in
places that before would have caused recursive includes.
For example to use phys_addr_t in <asm/page.h> we would have included
<asm/mmu.h> which would have possibly included <asm/mmu-hash64.h> which
includes <asm/page.h>. Wheeee recursive include.
CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT is a bit counterintuitive in light of ppc64 systems
and thus the config option is only used for ppc32 systems with >32-bit
physical addresses (44x, 85xx, 745x, etc.).

total_lowmem represents the amount of low memory, not the physical
address that low memory ends at. If the start of memory is at 0 it
happens that total_lowmem can be used as both the size and the address
that lowmem ends at (or more specifically one byte beyond the end).
To make the code a bit more clear and deal with the case when the start of
memory isn't at physical 0, we introduce lowmem_end_addr that represents
one byte beyond the last physical address in the lowmem region.

A number of users of PPC_MEMSTART (40x, ppc_mmu_32) can just always
use 0 as we don't support booting these kernels at non-zero physical
addresses since their exception vectors must be at 0 (or 0xfffx_xxxx).
For the sub-arches that support relocatable interrupt vectors
(book-e), it's reasonable to have memory start at a non-zero physical
address. For those cases use the variable memstart_addr instead of
the #define PPC_MEMSTART since the only uses of PPC_MEMSTART are for
initialization and in the future we can set memstart_addr at runtime
to have a relocatable kernel.

Fedora 9 works on Efika without the separate 'device-tree supplement',
thanks to the kernel's own fixups. With one exception -- because 'CHRP'
still appears on the 'machine:' line in /proc/cpuinfo, the installer
misdetects the platform and misconfigures yaboot, putting it into a PReP
boot partition instead of in the /boot filesystem where the Efika's
firmware could find it.
The kernel's fixups for Efika already correct one instance of 'chrp', in
the 'device_type' property. This fixes it in the 'CODEGEN,description'
property too, since that's what's exposed to userspace in /proc/cpuinfo.

This fixes the handling of the preempt count when switching
interrupt stacks so that HW interrupt properly get the softirq
mask copied over from the previous stack.
It also initializes the softirq stack preempt_count to 0 instead
of SOFTIRQ_OFFSET, like x86, as __do_softirq() does the increment,
and we hit some lockdep checks if we have it twice.
That means we do run for a little while off the softirq stack
with the preempt-count set to 0, which could be deadly if we
try to take a softirq at that point, however we do so with
interrupts disabled, so I think we are ok.

Currently, we initialize the "current" pointer in the PACA (which
is used by the "current" macro in the kernel) before calling
setup_system(). That means that early_setup() is called with
current still "NULL" which is -not- a good idea. It happens to
work so far but breaks with lockdep when early code calls printk.
This changes it so that all PACAs are statically initialized with
__current pointing to the init task. For non-0 CPUs, this is fixed
up before use.

This changes the cpu_idle loop for 44x platforms to utilize the Wait Enable
feature of the CPU. This helps virtulization solutions know when the guest
Linux kernel is in an idle state.
A command line option called "idle" is also added to allow people to change
the idle loop back to the original variation. This is done by setting
"idle=spin" on the kernel command line.

There is a potential bug in __lmb_alloc_base where we subtract `size'
from the base address of a reserved region without checking whether
the subtraction could wrap around and produce a very large unsigned
value. In fact it probably isn't possible to hit the bug in practice
since it would only occur in the situation where we can't satisfy the
allocation request and there is a reserved region starting at 0.
This fixes the potential bug by breaking out of the loop when we get
to the point where the base of the reserved region is less than the
size requested. This also restructures the loop to be a bit easier to
follow.
The same logic got copied into lmb_alloc_nid_unreserved, so this makes
a similar change there. Here the bug is more likely to be hit because
the outer loop (in lmb_alloc_nid) goes through the memory regions in
increasing order rather than decreasing order as __lmb_alloc_base
does, and we are therefore more likely to hit the case where we are
testing against a reserved region with a base address of 0.

This makes no semantic changes. It fixes the whitespace and formatting
a bit, gets rid of a local DBG macro and uses the equivalent pr_debug
instead, and restructures one while loop that had a function call and
assignment in the condition to be a bit more readable. Some comments
about functions being called with relocation disabled were also removed
as they would just be confusing to most readers now that the code is
in lib/.

A variant of lmb_alloc() that tries to allocate memory on a specified
NUMA node 'nid' but falls back to normal lmb_alloc() if that fails.
The caller provides a 'nid_range' function pointer which assists the
allocator. It is given args 'start', 'end', and pointer to integer
'this_nid'.
It places at 'this_nid' the NUMA node id that corresponds to 'start',
and returns the end address within 'start' to 'end' at which memory
assosciated with 'nid' ends.
This callback allows a platform to use lmb_alloc_nid() in just
about any context, even ones in which early_pfn_to_nid() might
not be working yet.
This function will be used by the NUMA setup code on sparc64, and also
it can be used by powerpc, replacing it's hand crafted
"careful_allocation()" function in arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c
If x86 ever converts it's NUMA support over to using the LMB helpers,
it can use this too as it has something entirely similar.

The mv643xx_eth driver is being modified to support multiple instances
of the ethernet silicon block on the same platform. Each block contains
a single register bank containing the registers for up to three ports
interleaved within that bank. This patch updates the PowerPC OF to
platform_device glue code to support multiple silicon blocks, each
with up to three ethernet ports. The main difference is that we now
allow multiple mv64x60_shared platform_devices to be registered and
we provide each port platform_device with a pointer to its associated
shared platform_device. The pointer will not be used until the
mv643xx_eth driver changes are committed.

If an SLB miss interrupt happens while the RI bit of MSR is zero, we
can't just return, because RI being zero indicates that SRR0/SRR1
potentially had live values in them, and the process of taking an
interrupt overwrites them.
This should never happen, but if it does, we try to print a nice oops
message. That doesn't work, however, because the code at unrecov_slb
assumes that the MMU has been turned on, but we call it with the MMU
off (and have done so since the SLB miss handler was rewritten to run
without turning the MMU on) -- except on iSeries, where everything runs
with the MMU on.
This fixes it by adding the necessary code to turn the MMU on if
necessary.
