intc_get_pending() returns a bitmask with pending interrupts in a
interrupt controller group (irq). This is used by the upcoming
oprofile implementation for avr32 and may also be useful for chained
interrupt controller drivers.

The macb driver will probe for the PHY chip and read the mac address
from the MACB registers, so we don't need them in eth_platform_data
anymore.
Since u-boot doesn't currently initialize the MACB registers with the
mac addresses, the tag parsing code is kept but instead of sticking
the information into eth_platform_data, it uses it to initialize
the MACB registers (in case the boot loader didn't do it.) This code
should be unnecessary at some point in the future.

This makes powerpc use the generic BUG machinery. The biggest reports the
function name, since it is redundant with kallsyms, and not needed in general.
There is an overall reduction of code, since module_32/64 duplicated several
functions.
Unfortunately there's no way to tell gcc that BUG won't return, so the BUG
macro includes a goto loop. This will generate a real jmp instruction, which
is never used.

The e300c2 has no FPU. Its MSR[FP] is grounded to zero. If an attempt
is made to execute a floating point instruction (including floating-point
load, store, or move instructions), the e300c2 takes a floating-point
unavailable interrupt.
This patch adds support for FP emulation on the e300c2 by declaring a
new CPU_FTR_FP_TAKES_FPUNAVAIL, where FP unavail interrupts are
intercepted and redirected to the ProgramCheck exception path for
correct emulation handling.
(If we run out of CPU_FTR bits we could look to reclaim this bit by adding
support to test the cpu_user_features for PPC_FEATURE_HAS_FPU instead)
It adds a nop to the exception path for 32-bit processors with a FPU.

The changes to use pci_read_irq_line() broke interrupt parsing
on some 32-bit powermacs (oops). The reason is a bit obscure.
The code to parse interrupts happens earlier now, during
pcibios_fixup() as the PCI bus is being probed. However, the
current implementation pci_device_to_OF_node() for 32-bit
powerpc relies, on machines like PowerMac which renumber PCI buses,
on a table called pci_OF_bus_map containing a map of bus numbers
between the kernel and the firmware which is setup only later.
Thus, it fails to match the device node. In addition, some of
Apple internal PCI devices lack a proper PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN, thus
preventing the fallback mapping code to work.
This patch fixes it by making pci_device_to_OF_node() 32-bit
implementation use a different algorithm that works without
using the pci_OF_bus_map thing (which I intend to deprecate
anyway). It's a bit slower but that function isn't called in
any hot path hopefully.

For PAPR partitions with large amounts of memory, the firmware has an
alternative, more compact representation for the information about the
memory in the partition and its NUMA associativity information. This
adds the code to the kernel to parse this alternative representation.
The other part of this patch is telling the firmware that we can
handle the alternative representation. There is however a subtlety
here, because the firmware will invoke a reboot if the memory
representation we request is different from the representation that
firmware is currently using. This is because firmware can't change
the representation on the fly. Further, some firmware versions used
on POWER5+ machines have a bug where this reboot leaves the machine
with an altered value of load-base, which will prevent any kernel
booting until it is reset to the normal value (0x4000). Because of
this bug, we do NOT set fake_elf.rpanote.new_mem_def = 1, and thus we
do not request the new representation on POWER5+ and earlier machines.
We do request the new representation on POWER6, which uses the
ibm,client-architecture-support call.

pSeries_probe can decide that we are a pseries but then fail to
initialise the MMU. If an rtas node doesnt exist, we continually fall
out of pSeries_probe_hypertas early and never get to the MMU init code.
While pseries without RTAS is an illegal combination, the way we
currently fail is a pain to track down, and can happen if your flattened
device tree code has issues (like mine did :).
With the following patch we init the MMU, come up and print some
warnings about RTAS not existing, instead of looping on 0x400 exceptions.

The powerpc version of pci_resource_to_user() and associated hooks
used by /proc/bus/pci and /sys/bus/pci mmap have been broken for some
time on machines that don't have a 1:1 mapping of devices (basically
on non-PowerMacs) and have PCI devices above 32 bits.
This attempts to fix it as well as possible.
The rule is supposed to be that pci_resource_to_user() always converts
the resources back into a BAR values since that's what the /proc
interface was supposed to deal with. However, for X to work on
platforms where PCI MMIO is not mapped 1:1, it became a habit of
platforms like powerpc to pass "fixed up" values there since X expects
to be able to use values from /proc/bus/pci/devices as offsets to mmap
of /dev/mem...
So we keep that contraption here, causing also /sys/*/resource to
expose fully absolute MMIO addresses instead of BAR values, which is
ugly, but should still work as long as those are only used to calculate
alignment within a page.
X is still broken when built 32 bits on machines where PCI MMIO can be
above 32-bit space unfortunately.

As the first step in consolidating the pseries hotplug cpu code,
create platforms/pseries/hotplug-cpu.c and move rtas_stop_self()
into it. Do the rtas token initialisation in a new initcall, rather
than rtas_initialize().

Make sure that the pmu is not initialised unless we are running on a cell.
Also make the init routine static.

This patch makes paging_init() use highend_pfn/highstart_pfn globals.
It removes the need of 'high' local which was needed only by HIGHMEM config.
More important perhaps, it fixes a bug when HIGHMEM is set but there's
actually no physical highmem (highend_pfn = 0)

While the recent cset 86384d544157db23879064cde36061cdcafc6794 did improve
things it didn't resolve all the problems. So bite the bullet and discard
.exit.text and .exit.data at runtime. Which of course sucks because it
bloats binaries with code that will never ever be used but it's the only
thing that will work reliable as demonstrated by the function sd_major() in
drivers/scsi/sd.c.
Gcc may compile sd_major() using a jump table which it will put into
.rodata. If it also inlines sd_major's function body into exit_sd() which
gcc > 3.4.x does. If CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD has been set to y we would like ld
to discard exit_sd's code at link time. However sd_major happens to
contain a switch statement which gcc will compile using a jump table in
.rodata on the architectures I checked. So, when ld later discards
.exit.text only the jump table in .rodata with its stale references to
the discard .exit.text will be left which any no antique ld will honor
with a link error.
