37ddd5d053 [POWERPC] pseries/phyp dump: Reserve a variable amount of space at boot
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.

b18796d32a [POWERPC] bootwrapper: Use physical address in PHDR for uImage
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.

366234f657 [POWERPC] Update linker script to properly set physical addresses
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.

d7917ba705 [POWERPC] Introduce lowmem_end_addr to distinguish from total_lowmem
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.

99c62dd773 [POWERPC] Remove and replace uses of PPC_MEMSTART with memstart_addr
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.

7f4392cdcc [POWERPC] Efika: Really, don't pretend to be CHRP
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.

e6768a4f39 [POWERPC] Fixup softirq preempt count
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.

7c6352a469 [POWERPC] Initialize paca->current earlier
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.

320787c75c [POWERPC] Fix handling of unrecoverable SLB miss interrupts
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.

necessary.

MPC5200B, so this adds a suitable entry to the driver's match list.
Furthermore this adds the settings for the PHY in the dts file for the
Lite5200.  Note, that this is not exactly the same as in the
Lite5200B, because the PHY is located at f0003000:01 for the 5200, and
at :00 for the 5200B.  This was tested on a Lite5200 and a Lite5200B,
both booted a kernel via tftp and mounted the root via nfs
successfully.

7484839850 [POWERPC] Fix rtas_flash procfs interface
Handling of the proc_dir_entry->count was changed in 2.6.24-rc5.
After this change, the default value for pde->count is 1 and not 0 as
before.  Therefore, if we want to check whether our procfs file is
already opened (already in use), we have to check if pde->count is
greater than 2 rather than 1.

b991f05f13 [POWERPC] Fix deadlock with mmu_hash_lock in hash_page_sync
hash_page_sync() takes and releases the low level mmu hash
lock in order to sync with other processors disposing of page
tables.  Because that lock can be needed to service hash misses
triggered by interrupt handlers, taking it must be done with
interrupts off.  However, hash_page_sync() appears to be called
with interrupts enabled, thus causing occasional deadlocks.

We fix it by making sure hash_page_sync() masks interrupts while
holding the lock.

ff3da2e093 [POWERPC] Fix iSeries hard irq enabling regression
A subtle bug sneaked into iSeries recently.  On this platform, we must
not normally clear MSR:EE (the hardware external interrupt enable)
except for short periods of time.  Taking an interrupt while
soft-disabled doesn't cause us to clear it for example.

The iSeries kernel expects to mostly run with MSR:EE enabled at all
times except in a few exception entry/exit code paths.  Thus
local_irq_enable() doesn't check if it needs to hard-enable as it
expects this to be unnecessary on iSeries.

However, hard_irq_disable() _does_ cause MSR:EE to be cleared,
including on iSeries.  A call to it was recently added to the
context switch code, thus causing interrupts to become disabled
for a long periods of time, causing the iSeries watchdog to kick
in under some circumstances and other nasty things.

This patch fixes it by making local_irq_enable() properly re-enable
MSR:EE on iSeries.  It basically removes a return statement here
to make iSeries use the same code path as everybody else.  That does
mean that we might occasionally get spurious decrementer interrupts
but I don't think that matters.

Another option would have been to make hard_irq_disable() a nop
on iSeries but I didn't like it much, in case we have good reasons
to hard-disable.

Part of the patch is fixes to make sure the hard_enabled PACA field
is properly set on iSeries as it used not to be before, since it
was mostly unused.
