cc53291521 [PATCH] powerpc: Add arch dependent basic infrastructure for Kdump.
Implementing the machine_crash_shutdown which will be called by
crash_kexec (called in case of a panic, sysrq etc.). Disable the
interrupts, shootdown cpus using debugger IPI and collect regs
for all CPUs.

elfcorehdr= specifies the location of elf core header stored by
the crashed kernel. This command line option will be passed by
the kexec-tools to capture kernel.

savemaxmem= specifies the actual memory size that the first kernel
has and this value will be used for dumping in the capture kernel.
This command line option will be passed by the kexec-tools to
capture kernel.

3d1229d6ae [PATCH] powerpc: Merge kexec
This patch merges, to some extent, the PPC32 and PPC64 kexec implementations.

We adopt the PPC32 approach of having ppc_md callbacks for the kexec functions.
The current PPC64 implementation becomes the "default" implementation for PPC64
which platforms can select if they need no special treatment.

I've added these default callbacks to pseries/maple/cell/powermac, this means
iSeries no longer supports kexec - but it never worked anyway.

I've renamed PPC32's machine_kexec_simple to default_machine_kexec, inline with
PPC64. Judging by the comments it might be better named machine_kexec_non_of,
or something, but at the moment it's the only implementation for PPC32 so it's
the "default".

Kexec requires machine_shutdown(), which is in machine_kexec.c on PPC32, but we
already have in setup-common.c on powerpc. All this does is call
ppc_md.nvram_sync, which only powermac implements, so instead make
machine_shutdown a ppc_md member and have it call core99_nvram_sync directly
on powermac.

I've also stuck relocate_kernel.S into misc_32.S for powerpc.

Built for ARCH=ppc, and 32 & 64 bit ARCH=powerpc, with KEXEC=y/n. Booted on
P5 LPAR and successfully kexec'ed.

Should apply on top of 493f25ef40.

593e537b93 [PATCH] powerpc: Export htab start/end via device tree
The userspace kexec-tools need to know the location of the htab on non-lpar
machines, as well as the end of the kernel. Export via the device tree.

NB. This patch has been updated to use "linux,x" property names. You may
need to update your kexec-tools to match.

e1df870d54 powerpc: Merge asm-ppc/kexec.h and asm-ppc64/kexec.h
Merge include/asm-ppc/kexec.h and include/asm-ppc64/kexec.h.

The only thing that's really changed is that we now allocate crash_notes
properly on PPC32. It's address is exported via sysfs, so it's not correct
for it to be a pointer.

I've also removed some of the "we don't use this" comments, because they're
wrong (or perhaps were referring only to arch code).
