Older pSeries systems with serial ports dont get any console output after
recent changes. CONFIG_ISA does not make sense for CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES
because it enables lots of old drivers. Instead, remove the dependency on
CONFIG_ISA from the serial port discovery code.

The TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag allows us to have a generic implementation of
sys_rt_sigsuspend() instead of duplicating it for each architecture. This
provides such an implementation and makes arch/powerpc use it.
It also tidies up the ppc32 sys_sigsuspend() to use TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK.

When I removed the powermac support from arch/ppc/kernel/pci.c,
I overlooked the fact that that file is used in 32-bit ARCH=powerpc
builds. To prevent problems in future, restore the original version
of that file as arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_32.c, and use that.

- This contains the arch specific changes for the following the
kdump generic fixes which were already accepted in the upstream.
. Capturing CPU registers (for the case of 'panic' and invoking
the dump using 'sysrq-trigger') from a function (stack frame) which will
be not be available during the kdump boot. Hence, might result in
invalid stack trace.
. Dynamically allocating per cpu ELF notes section instead of
statically for NR_CPUS.
- Fix the compiler warning in prom_init.c.

The first generation of PCI powermacs had a host bridge called /chaos
which was for all intents and purposes a PCI host bridge, but has a
device_type of "vci" in the device tree (presumably it's not really
PCI at the hardware level or something).
The OF parsing stuff in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_parse.c currently
doesn't recognize it as a PCI bridge, which means that controlfb.c
can't get its device addresses.
This makes prom_parse.c recognize a device_type of "vci" as indicating
a PCI host bridge. With this, controlfb works again.

Handle the ibm,suspend-me RTAS call specially. It needs
to be wrapped in a set of synchronization hypervisor calls
(H_Join). When the H_Join calls are made on all CPUs, the
intent is that only one will return with H_Continue, meaning
that he is the "last man standing". That CPU then issues the
ibm,suspend-me call. What is interesting, of course, is that
the CPU running when the rtas syscall is made, may NOT be the
CPU that ultimately executes the ibm,suspend-me rtas call.

In 2.6.15-git6 a change was commited in the oprofile support in
the powerpc architecture. It introduced the powerpc_oprofile_type
which contains the define G4. This causes a name clash with the
existing wacom usb tablet driver.

The elements of an enum declared in global scope are effectivly
global identifiers themselves. As such we need to ensure the names
are unique. This patch updates the later oprofile support to use
unique names.

The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible
alternative versions of shared libraries. This commit makes the kernel
supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor
we are running on. Processors with the same set of user-level
instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics
are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860
are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455
are all called "ppc7450".
The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that
gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option. For values which are numeric
(e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended.
This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets
it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family.

At present the lppaca - the structure shared with the iSeries
hypervisor and phyp - is contained within the PACA, our own low-level
per-cpu structure. This doesn't have to be so, the patch below
removes it, making a separate array of lppaca structures.
This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel
memory, because we don't need aligning gap between the Linux and
hypervisor portions of every PACA. On the other hand it means an
extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca.
The patch also gets rid of several places where we assign the paca
address to a local variable for no particular reason.

This patch consolidates the variety of macros used for loading 32 or
64-bit constants in assembler (LOADADDR, LOADBASE, SET_REG_TO_*). The
idea is to make the set of macros consistent across 32 and 64 bit and
to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given
situation. The new macros and their semantics are described in the
comments in ppc_asm.h.
In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using
immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC. Likewise we cleanup a
couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with
asm instructions to use assemble-time arithmetic or the toreal() macro
instead.

Add support for updating and removing device tree
properties. Since we hand out pointers to properties with gay
abandon, we can't just free the property storage. Instead we
move deleted, or the old copy of an updated property, to a
"dead properties" list.
Also note, its not feasable to kref device tree properties.
we call get_property() all over the kernel in a wild variety
of contexts.
One consequence of this change is that we now take a
read_lock(&devtree_lock) when doing get_property().

powerpc: Fixed memory reserve map layout
The memory reserve map is suppose to be a pair of 64-bit integers
to represent each region. On ppc32 the code was treating the
pair as two 32-bit integers. Additional the prom_init code was
producing the wrong layout on ppc32.
Added a simple check to try to provide backwards compatibility.

Heikki Lindholm pointed out that there was a potential race with the
lazy CPU state (FP, VR, EVR) stuff if preempt is enabled. The race
is that in the process of restoring FP state on sigreturn, the task
gets preempted by a user task that wants to use the FPU. It will take
an FP unavailable exception, which will write the current FPU state
to the thread_struct, overwriting the values which sigreturn has
stored. Note that this can only happen on UP since we don't implement
lazy CPU state on SMP.
The fix is to flush the lazy CPU state before updating the
thread_struct. To do this we re-use the flush_lazy_cpu_state()
function from process.c.

There is a window where a probe gets removed right after the probe is hit
on some different cpu. In this case probe handlers can't find a matching
probe instance related to break address. In this case we need to read the
original instruction at break address to see if that is not a break/int3
instruction and recover safely.
Previous code had a bug where we were not checking for the above race in
case of reentrant probes and the below patch fixes this race.

The current ppc64 per cpu data implementation is quite slow. eg:
lhz 11,18(13) /* smp_processor_id() */
ld 9,.LC63-.LCTOC1(30) /* per_cpu__variable_name */
ld 8,.LC61-.LCTOC1(30) /* __per_cpu_offset */
sldi 11,11,3 /* form index into __per_cpu_offset */
mr 10,9
ldx 9,11,8 /* __per_cpu_offset[smp_processor_id()] */
ldx 0,10,9 /* load per cpu data */
5 loads for something that is supposed to be fast, pretty awful. One
reason for the large number of loads is that we have to synthesize 2
64bit constants (per_cpu__variable_name and __per_cpu_offset).
By putting __per_cpu_offset into the paca we can avoid the 2 loads
associated with it:
ld 11,56(13) /* paca->data_offset */
ld 9,.LC59-.LCTOC1(30) /* per_cpu__variable_name */
ldx 0,9,11 /* load per cpu data
Longer term we can should be able to do even better than 3 loads.
If per_cpu__variable_name wasnt a 64bit constant and paca->data_offset
was in a register we could cut it down to one load. A suggestion from
Rusty is to use gcc's __thread extension here. In order to do this we
would need to free up r13 (the __thread register and where the paca
currently is). So far Ive had a few unsuccessful attempts at doing that :)
The patch also allocates per cpu memory node local on NUMA machines.
This patch from Rusty has been sitting in my queue _forever_ but stalled
when I hit the compiler bug. Sorry about that.
Finally I also only allocate per cpu data for possible cpus, which comes
straight out of the x86-64 port. On a pseries kernel (with NR_CPUS == 128)
and 4 possible cpus we see some nice gains:
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4012228 212860 3799368 0 0 162424
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4016200 212984 3803216 0 0 162424
A saving of 3.75MB. Quite nice for smaller machines. Note: we now have
to be careful of per cpu users that touch data for !possible cpus.
At this stage it might be worth making the NUMA and possible cpu
optimisations generic, but per cpu init is done so early we have to be
careful that all architectures have their possible map setup correctly.

This patch adds Kconfig entries to control the early debugging options,
currently in setup_64.c.
Doing this via Kconfig rather than #defines means you can have one source tree,
which is buildable for multiple platforms - and you can enable the correct
early debug option for each platform via .config.
I made udbg_early_init() a static inline because otherwise GCC is to daft to
optimise it away when debugging is off.
Now that we have udbg_init_rtas() we can make call_rtas_display_status* static.

Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can
build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft. We need a
special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done.
This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures. Also remove some
superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c
Tested on ppc64.
[1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct
for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd
kick in for all netdevice users. We can introduce a proper handler
in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to
struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't
compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this
