Use idle_power4.S from ppc64 as we are not going to support
32 bit power4 in the merged tree.
Merge ppc64 traps.c into powerpc traps.c:
use ppc64 versions of exception routine names
(as they don't have StudlyCaps)
make all the versions if die() have the same
prototype

Complete moving arch/ppc64/kernel/mpic.h,
include/asm-ppc/reg.h, include/asm-ppc64/kdebug.h
and include/asm-ppc64/kprobes.h
Add arch/powerpc/platforms/Makefile and use it from
arch/powerpc/Makefile
Introduce OLDARCH temporarily so we can point back to
the originating architecture

ppc32/ppc64: Merge bug.h into include/asm-powerpc
This patch merges bug.h into include/asm-powerpc. Changed the data
structure for bug_entry such that line is always an int on both 32 and
64-bit platforms; removed casts to int from the 64-bit trap code to
reflect this.

This adds the basic support for running on BPA machines.
So far, this is only the IBM workstation, and it will
not run on others without a little more generalization.
It should be possible to configure a kernel for any
combination of CONFIG_PPC_BPA with any of the other
multiplatform targets.

This patch adds detection of the Altivec capability of the CPU via the
firmware in addition to the cpu table. This allows newer CPUs that aren't
in the table to still have working altivec support in the kernel.
It also fixes a problem where if a CPU isn't recognized as having altivec
features, and takes an altivec unavailable exception due to userland
issuing altivec instructions, the kernel would happily enable it and
context switch the registers ... but not all of them (it would basically
forget vrsave). With this patch, the kernel will refuse to enable altivec
when the feature isn't detected for the CPU (SIGILL).

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!
