Some changes done a while ago to avoid pounding on ptep_set_access_flags and
update_mmu_cache in some race situations break sun4c which requires
update_mmu_cache() to always be called on minor faults.
This patch reworks ptep_set_access_flags() semantics, implementations and
callers so that it's now responsible for returning whether an update is
necessary or not (basically whether the PTE actually changed). This allow
fixing the sparc implementation to always return 1 on sun4c.

Most architectures defined three macros, MK_IOSPACE_PFN(), GET_IOSPACE()
and GET_PFN() in pgtable.h. However, the only callers of any of these
macros are in Sparc specific code, either in arch/sparc, arch/sparc64 or
drivers/sbus.
This patch removes the redundant macros from all architectures except
sparc and sparc64.

One of the changes necessary for shared page tables is to standardize the
pxx_page macros. pte_page and pmd_page have always returned the struct
page associated with their entry, while pte_page_kernel and pmd_page_kernel
have returned the kernel virtual address. pud_page and pgd_page, on the
other hand, return the kernel virtual address.
Shared page tables needs pud_page and pgd_page to return the actual page
structures. There are very few actual users of these functions, so it is
simple to standardize their usage.
Since this is basic cleanup, I am submitting these changes as a standalone
patch. Per Hugh Dickins' comments about it, I am also changing the
pxx_page_kernel macros to pxx_page_vaddr to clarify their meaning.

This adds a vdso_base element to the mm_context_t for 32-bit compiles
(both for ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc). This fixes the compile errors
that have been reported in arch/powerpc/kernel/signal_32.c.

Fix 44x and BookE page fault handler to correctly lock PTE before
trying to pte_update() it, otherwise this PTE might be swapped out
after pte_present() check but before pte_uptdate() call, resulting in
corrupted PTE. This can happen with enabled preemption and low memory
condition.

The following patch generalizes PPC44x_PIN_SIZE by changing it to
PPC_PIN_SIZE, which can be defined by any sub-arch to automatically adjust
VMALLOC_START.
Define PPC_PIN_SIZE on 8xx, avoiding potential conflicts with the
pinned space.

Change the phys_mem_access_prot() function to take a pfn instead of an
address. This allows mmap64() to work on /dev/mem for addresses above 4G
on 32-bit architectures. We start with a pfn in mmap_mem(), so there's no
need to convert to an address; in fact, it's actively bad, since the
conversion can overflow when the address is above 4G.
Similarly fix the ppc32 page_is_ram() function to avoid a conversion to an
address by directly comparing to max_pfn. Working with max_pfn instead of
high_memory fixes page_is_ram() to give the right answer for highmem pages.

Made the number of TLB CAM entries private and converted the board
consumers to use num_tlbcam_entries which is setup at boot time from
configuration registers. This way the only consumers of the #define
NUM_TLBCAMS are the arrays used to manage the TLB.

To add support for 36-bit physical addressing on e500 the following changes
have been made. The changes are generalized to support any physical address
size larger than 32-bits:
* Allow FSL Book-E parts to use a 64-bit PTE, it is 44-bits of pfn, 20-bits
of flags.
* Introduced new CPU feature (CPU_FTR_BIG_PHYS) to allow runtime handling of
updating hardware register (SPRN_MAS7) which holds the upper 32-bits of
physical address that will be written into the TLB. This is useful since
not all e500 cores support 36-bit physical addressing.
* Currently have a pass through implementation of fixup_bigphys_addr
* Moved _PAGE_DIRTY in the 64-bit PTE case to free room for three additional
storage attributes that may exist in future FSL Book-E cores and updated
fault handler to copy these bits into the hardware TLBs.

Allow the pfn to be offset by more than just PAGE_SHIFT in the pte. Today,
PAGE_SHIFT tends to allow us to have 12-bits of flags in the pte. In the
future if we have a larger pte we can allocate more bits for flags by
offsetting the pfn even further.

While the existing pte_update code handled atomically modifying a 64-bit PTE,
it did not return all 64-bits of the PTE before it was modified. This causes
problems in some places that expect the full PTE to be returned, like
ptep_get_and_clear().
Created a new pte_update function that is conditional on CONFIG_PTE_64BIT. It
atomically reads the low PTE word which all PTE flags are required to be in
and returns a premodified full 64-bit PTE.
Since we now have an explicit 64-bit PTE version of pte_update we can also
remove the hack that existed to get the low PTE word regardless of size.

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!
