We're soon running out of CPU features and I need to add some new
ones for various MMU related bits, so this patch separates the MMU
features from the CPU features. I moved over the 32-bit MMU related
ones, added base features for MMU type families, but didn't move
over any 64-bit only feature yet.

When running Active Memory Sharing, pages can get marked as
"loaned" with the hypervisor by the CMM driver. This state gets
cleared by the system firmware when rebooting the partition.
When using kexec to boot a new kernel, this state never gets
cleared and the hypervisor and CMM driver can get out of sync
with respect to the number of pages currently marked "loaned".
Fix this by adding a reboot notifier to the CMM driver to deflate
the balloon and mark all pages as active.

When running Active Memory Sharing, the Collaborative Memory Manager
(CMM) may mark some pages as "loaned" with the hypervisor.
Periodically, the CMM will query the hypervisor for a loan request,
which is a single signed value. When kexec'ing into a kdump kernel,
the CMM driver in the kdump kernel is not aware of the pages the
previous kernel had marked as "loaned", so the hypervisor and the CMM
driver are out of sync. This results in the CMM driver getting a
negative loan request, which can then get treated as a large unsigned
value and can cause kdump to hang due to the CMM driver inflating too
large. Since there really is no clean way for the CMM driver in the
kdump kernel to clean this up, simply disable CMM in the kdump kernel.
This fixes hangs we were seeing doing kdump with AMS.

Currently there are a number of platforms that open code access to
the ppc_pci_flags global variable. However, that variable is not
present if CONFIG_PCI is not set, which can lead to a build break.
This introduces a number of accessor functions that are defined
to be empty in the case of CONFIG_PCI being disabled. The
various platform files in the kernel are updated to use these.

Since "Factor out cpu joining/unjoining the GIQ"
(b4963255ad5a426f04a0bb15c4315fa4bb40cde9) the WARN_ON in
xics_set_cpu_giq() is being triggered during boot on JS20 because the
GIQ indicator is not available on that platform. While the warning is
harmless and the system runs normally, it's nicer to check for the
existence of the indicator before trying to manipulate it.
Implement rtas_indicator_present(), which searches the
/rtas/rtas-indicators property for the given indicator token, and use
this function in xics_set_cpu_giq().
Also use a WARN statement in xics_set_cpu_giq to get better
information on failure.

Commit d015fe995 'powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt'
has turned a rare failure to kexec on QS22 into a reproducible
error, which we have now analysed.
The problem is that after a kexec, the MSIC hardware still points
into the middle of the old ring buffer. We set up the ring buffer
during reboot, but not the offset into it. On older kernels, this
would cause a storm of thousands of spurious interrupts after a
kexec, which would most of the time get dropped silently.
With the new code, we time out on each interrupt, waiting for
it to become valid. If more interrupts come in that we time
out on, this goes on indefinitely, which eventually leads to
a hard crash.
The solution in this commit is to read the current offset from
the MSIC when reinitializing it. This now works correctly, as
expected.

An earlier patch from Jens Osterkamp attempted to fix GDB
watchpoints by enabling the DABRX register at boot time.
Unfortunately, this did not work on SMP setups, where
secondary CPUs were still using the power-on DABRX value.
This introduces the same change for secondary CPUs on cell
as well.

The MSI capture logic for the axon bridge can sometimes
lose interrupts in case of high DMA and interrupt load,
when it signals an MSI interrupt to the MPIC interrupt
controller while we are already handling another MSI.
Each MSI vector gets written into a FIFO buffer in main
memory using DMA, and that DMA access is normally flushed
by the actual interrupt packet on the IOIF. An MMIO
register in the MSIC holds the position of the last
entry in the FIFO buffer that was written. However,
reading that position does not flush the DMA, so that
we can observe stale data in the buffer.
In a stress test, we have observed the DMA to arrive
up to 14 microseconds after reading the register.
This patch works around this problem by retrying the
access to the FIFO buffer.
We can reliably detect the conditioning by writing
an invalid MSI vector into the FIFO buffer after
reading from it, assuming that all MSIs we get
are valid. After detecting an invalid MSI vector,
we udelay(1) in the interrupt cascade for up to
100 times before giving up.

Currently, we can end up in an infinite loop if we get a signal
while the kernel has faulted in spufs_ps_fault. Eg:
alarm(1);
write(fd, some_spu_psmap_register_address, 4);
- the write's copy_from_user will fault on the ps mapping, and
signal_pending will be non-zero. Because returning from the fault
handler will never clear TIF_SIGPENDING, so we'll just keep faulting,
resulting in an unkillable process using 100% of CPU.
This change returns VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if there's a fatal signal pending,
letting us escape the loop.

To properly fix PCI hotplug, it's useful to be able to make the fixup
passes on all devices whether they were just hot plugged or already
there.
The EEH code however used to not be very friendly with calling
eeh_add_device_late() multiple time, and not very rebust in the way it
generally tests whether a device is in the expected state vs. the EEH
code.
This improves it, along with cleaning up a couple of debug printk's.

The 'ibm,interrupt-server#-size' properties are not in the cpu nodes,
which is where we currently look for them, but rather live under the
interrupt source controller nodes (which have "ibm,ppc-xics" in their
compatible property).
This moves the code that looks for the ibm,interrupt-server#-size
properties from xics_update_irq_servers() into xics_init_IRQ().
Also this adds a check for mismatched sizes across the interrupt
source controller nodes. Not sure this is necessary as in this case
the firmware might be seriously busted.
This property only appears on POWER6 boxes and is only used in the
set-indicator(gqirm) call, and apparently firmware currently ignores
the value we pass. Nevertheless we need to fix it in case future
firmware versions use it.

The Freescale implementation of MPIC only allows a single CPU destination
for non-IPI interrupts. We add a flag to the mpic_init to distinquish
these variants of MPIC. We pull in the irq_choose_cpu from sparc64 to
select a single CPU as the destination of the interrupt.
This is to deal with the fact that the default smp affinity was
changed by commit 18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 ("genirq:
Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)") to be all CPUs.

After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost
their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page(). This
caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called
the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the
iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used. So in order to fix
this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use
map/unmap_page.
First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single()
becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes
iommu_unmap_page(). Then we propagate these changes up through all
the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the
dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than
map/unmap_single. We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM
memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function
as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments.
This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just
ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate
dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls
unmap_page().
This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this
because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

Resources for PHB's that are dynamically added to a system are not

Not having these resources allocated causes an oops when removing
the PHB when we try to release them.
The diff appears a bit messy, this is mainly due to moving everything
one tab to the left in the pcibios_allocate_bus_resources routine.
The functionality change in this routine is only that the

This adds relocatable kernel support for kdump. With this one can
use the same regular kernel to capture the kdump. A signature (0xfeed1234)
is passed in r6 from panic code to the next kernel through kexec_sequence
and purgatory code. The signature is used to differentiate between
kdump kernel and non-kdump kernels.
The purgatory code compares the signature and sets the __kdump_flag in
head_64.S. During the boot up, kernel code checks __kdump_flag and if it
is set, the kernel will behave as relocatable kdump kernel. This kernel
will boot at the address where it was loaded by kexec-tools ie. at the
address reserved through crashkernel boot parameter.
CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP depends on CONFIG_RELOCATABLE option to build kdump
kernel as relocatable. So the same kernel can be used as production and
kdump kernel.
This patch incorporates the changes suggested by Paul Mackerras to avoid
GOT use and to avoid two copies of the code.
