c5e24354ef [PATCH] powerpc: Turn cpu_irq_down into kexec_cpu_down
We currently have a ppc_md member called cpu_irq_down, which disables IRQs
for the cpu in question. The only caller of cpu_irq_down is the kexec code.

On pSeries we need to do more than just teardown IRQs at kexec time, so rename
the ppc_md member to kexec_cpu_down and expand it. The pSeries code needs to
know, and other platforms might too, whether we're doing a crash shutdown (ie.
panicking) or a regular kexec, so add a flag for that.

The pSeries implementation of kexec_cpu_down does an unregister VPA call, which
tells the Hypervisor to stop writing stuff into our pacas. Without this we can
get weird memory corruption bugs when we kexec, caused by the Hypervisor
writing into the first kernel's pacas which happens to be somewhere interesting
in the second kernel's memory.

76032de898 [PATCH] powerpc: Make ppc_md.set_dabr non 64-bit specific
Define ppc_md.set_dabr for both 32 + 64 bit. Cleanup the implementation for
pSeries also, it was needlessly complex. Now we just do two firmware tests at
setup time, and use one of two functions, rather than using one function and
testing on every call.

3c726f8dee [PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pages
Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel
base page size to 64K.  The resulting kernel still boots on any
hardware.  On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel
will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently.

Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch
will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm
still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the
information from the newer hypervisors.

cab0af98df powerpc: Make set_dabr() a ppc_md function
Move pSeries specific code in set_dabr() into a ppc_md function, this will
allow us to keep plpar_wrappers.h private to platforms/pseries.

8b150478ae [PATCH] ppc: make phys_mem_access_prot() work with pfns instead of addresses
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.

35499c0195 powerpc: Merge in 64-bit powermac support.
This brings in a lot of changes from arch/ppc64/kernel/pmac_*.c to
arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/*.c and makes various minor tweaks
elsewhere.  On the powermac we now initialize ppc_md by copying
the whole pmac_md structure into it, which required some changes in
the ordering of initializations of individual fields of it.

143a1dec7e powerpc: Merge machdep.h
A few things change for consistency between ppc32 and ppc64:
idle functions return void; *_get_boot_time functions return
unsigned long (i.e. time_t) rather than filling in a struct rtc_time
(since that's useful to the callers and easier for pmac to
generate); *_get_rtc_time and *_set_rtc_time functions take
a struct rtc_time; irq_canonicalize is gone; nvram_sync returns
void.
