This patch adds a new generic device tree processing function that retrieves
virtual reg addresses from the device tree to the bootwrapper code. It also
updates the bootwrapper code to use the new function.
dt_get_virtual_reg() retrieves the virtual reg addresses from the
"virtual-reg" property. If the property can't be found, it uses the "reg"
property and walks the tree to translate it to absolute addresses.

The architecture allows for "Book-E" style debug interrupts to either go
to critial interrupts of their own debug interrupt level. To allow for
a dynamic kernel to support machines of either type we want to be able to
compile in the interrupt handling code for both exception levels.
Towards this goal we renamed the debug handling macros to specify the
interrupt level in their name (DEBUG_CRIT_EXCEPTION/DebugCrit and
DEBUG_DEBUG_EXCEPTION/DebugDebug).
Additionally, on the Freescale Book-e parts we expanded the exception
stacks to cover the maximum case of needing three exception stacks (normal,
machine check and debug).
There is some kernel text space optimization to be gained if a kernel is
configured for a specific Freescale implementation but we aren't handling
that now to allow for the single kernel image support.

When we moved to arch/powerpc we actively tried to avoid using the
ppc_md.setup_io_mappings(). Currently no board ports use it so let's
remove it to avoid any new boards using it.
Also, remove early_serial_map() since we don't even have a call out for
it in arch/powerpc.

There is logic in platforms/peries/lpars.c which checks if the user has
specified a console on the command line, and refrains from adding a
preferred console entry for the hvc/hvsi console if they have.
This trips up if you use "netconsole=foo" on the command line, and has
the result that you get _only_ the netconsole, because the hvc device is
never added as a preferred console. Worse still if you get the netconsole
configuration wrong somehow, you end up with no console at all.
As it turns out we don't need to worry about checking the command line.
If the user has specified "console=foo", then foo will be set as the
preferred console when the command line is parsed in start_kernel(), much
later than the pseries code, and so the latter setting will take effect.

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.

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.

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 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.

[SPARC]: Fix several regset and ptrace bugs.

The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler
clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions
is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs. The tail/sibling-call
optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use
stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent.
Other optimizations can do it too.
Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the
compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all
the manifestations of this issue that crop up.
More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument
variables live at the end of the function. This makes their original
stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler
tends not clobber them for something else. It's still no guarantee, but
it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

This patch also resolves hangs on boot:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/23/263
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10093
The bug was causing once-in-few-reboots 10-15 sec wait during boot on
certain laptops.
Earlier commit 40d6a146629b98d8e322b6f9332b182c7cbff3df added
smp_call_function in cpu_idle_wait() to kick cpus that are in tickless
idle. Looking at cpu_idle_wait code at that time, code seemed to be
over-engineered for a case which is rarely used (while changing idle
handler).
Below is a simplified version of cpu_idle_wait, which just makes a dummy
smp_call_function to all cpus, to make them come out of old idle handler
and start using the new idle handler. It eliminates code in the idle
loop to handle cpu_idle_wait.

3) Skip the whole register window get/set code block if

Otherwise we have problems if the user doesn't have

still valid at such a time, and ptrace does not try
