In iperf experiments running linux as the Tx side (TCP client) with
10 threads results in a severe performance drop when TSO is disabled,
indicating a weakness in the software that can be avoided by using
the scalable IOMMU arena DMA allocation.
Baseline numbers before this patch:
with default settings (TSO enabled) : 9-9.5 Gbps
Disable TSO using ethtool- drops badly: 2-3 Gbps.
After this patch, iperf client with 10 threads, can give a
throughput of at least 8.5 Gbps, even when TSO is disabled.

I applied the wrong version of this patch series, V4 instead
of V10, due to a patchwork bundling snafu.

Drop extern for all prototypes and adjust alignment of parameters
as required after the removal.
In a few rare cases adjust linelength to conform to maximum 80 chars,
and likewise in a few rare cases adjust alignment of parameters
to static functions.

It is just used as a parent to encapsulate two PBM objects.
But that layout is only really relevant and necessary for
psycho PCI controllers, which unlike all the others share
a single IOMMU instance between sibling PCI busses.

The majority of this patch was created by the following script:
***
ASM=arch/sparc/include/asm
mkdir -p $ASM
git mv include/asm-sparc64/ftrace.h $ASM
git rm include/asm-sparc64/*
git mv include/asm-sparc/* $ASM
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc64/asm/g' $ASM/*
sed -ie 's/asm-sparc/asm/g' $ASM/*
***
The rest was an update of the top-level Makefile to use sparc
for header files when sparc64 is being build.
And a small fixlet to pick up the correct unistd.h from
sparc64 code.
