The kprobes code is doing ".previous .text". While the assembler doesnt
warn at the moment (and it seems to work), it might in the future.

Use __do_IRQ instead. The only difference is that every controller
is now assumed to have an end() routine (only xics_8259 did not).

The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y. FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.
The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU. However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit. This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.
While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S. The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.
Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.
Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
longer do.

Merge ppc32 and ppc64 versions of thread_info.h. They were pretty
similar already, the chief changes are:
- Instead of inline asm to implement current_thread_info(),
which needs to be different for ppc32 and ppc64, we use C with an
asm("r1") register variable. gcc turns it into the same asm as we
used to have for both platforms.
- We replace ppc32's 'local_flags' with the ppc64
'syscall_noerror' field. The noerror flag was in fact the only thing
in the local_flags field anyway, so the ppc64 approach is simpler, and
means we only need a load-immediate/store instead of load/mask/store
when clearing the flag.
- In readiness for 64k pages, when THREAD_SIZE will be less
than a page, ppc64 used kmalloc() rather than get_free_pages() to
allocate the kernel stack. With this patch we do the same for ppc32,
since there's no strong reason not to.
- For ppc64, we no longer export THREAD_SHIFT and THREAD_SIZE
via asm-offsets, thread_info.h can now be safely included in asm, as
on ppc32.
Built and booted on G4 Powerbook (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and
Power5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc).

This makes ppc use the syscalls.c from arch/powerpc/kernel, exports
copy_and_flush from head_32.S for use by prom_init.c (ARCH=powerpc),

Replace some of the hard-coded constants with PAGE_SIZE/SHIFT/ORDER where
appropriate.
Likewise, in a couple of places it doesn't make sense to base some
allocations on page size when all that's required is a constant 4K,

The pciconfig_iobase, pciconfig_read and pciconfig_write system calls
were only implemented for 32-bit processes; for 64-bit processes they
returned an ENOSYS error. This allows them to be used by 64-bit
processes as well. The X server uses pciconfig_iobase at least, and
this change is necessary to allow a 64-bit X server to work on my G5.

This patch implements the kexec support for ppc64 platforms.
A couple of notes:
1) We copy the pages in virtual mode, using the full base kernel
and a statically allocated stack. At kexec_prepare time we
scan the pages and if any overlap our (0, _end[]) range we
return -ETXTBSY.
On PowerPC 64 systems running in LPAR (logical partitioning)
mode, only a small region of memory, referred to as the RMO,
can be accessed in real mode. Since Linux runs with only one
zone of memory in the memory allocator, and it can be orders of
magnitude more memory than the RMO, looping until we allocate
pages in the source region is not feasible. Copying in virtual
means we don't have to write a hash table generation and call
hypervisor to insert translations, instead we rely on the pinned
kernel linear mapping. The kernel already has move to linked
location built in, so there is no requirement to load it at 0.
If we want to load something other than a kernel, then a stub
can be written to copy a linear chunk in real mode.
2) The start entry point gets passed parameters from the kernel.
Slaves are started at a fixed address after copying code from
the entry point.
All CPUs get passed their firmware assigned physical id in r3
(most calling conventions use this register for the first
argument).
This is used to distinguish each CPU from all other CPUs.
Since firmware is not around, there is no other way to obtain
this information other than to pass it somewhere.
A single CPU, referred to here as the master and the one executing
the kexec call, branches to start with the address of start in r4.
While this can be calculated, we have to load it through a gpr to
branch to this point so defining the register this is contained
in is free. A stack of unspecified size is available at r1
(also common calling convention).
All remaining running CPUs are sent to start at absolute address
0x60 after copying the first 0x100 bytes from start to address 0.
This convention was chosen because it matches what the kernel
has been doing itself. (only gpr3 is defined).
Note: This is not quite the convention of the kexec bootblock v2
in the kernel. A stub has been written to convert between them,
and we may adjust the kernel in the future to allow this directly
without any stub.
3) Destination pages can be placed anywhere, even where they
would not be accessible in real mode. This will allow us to
place ram disks above the RMO if we choose.

This patch fixes some bugs in the ppc64 PER_LINUX32 implementation,
noted by Juergen Kreileder:
* uname(2) doesn't respect PER_LINUX32, it returns 'ppc64' instead of 'ppc'
* Child processes of a PER_LINUX32 process don't inherit PER_LINUX32
Along the way I took the opportunity to move things around so that
sys_ppc32.c only has 32-bit syscall emulation functions and to remove
the obsolete "fakeppc" command line option.

The code in reloc_offset is actually subtracting the address in the link
register from the address calculated by the linker. Perhaps the
extended mnemonic `sub' replaced an original `subf' and the comment just
did not get updated.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
