The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible
alternative versions of shared libraries. This commit makes the kernel
supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor
we are running on. Processors with the same set of user-level
instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics
are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860
are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455
are all called "ppc7450".
The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that
gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option. For values which are numeric
(e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended.
This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets
it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family.

When jprobe is hit, the function parameters of the original function
should be saved before jprobe handler is executed, and restored it after
jprobe handler is executed, because jprobe handler might change the
register values due to tail call optimization by the gcc.

This patch separates the sn_flush_device_list struct into kernel and
common (both kernel and PROM accessible) structures. As it was, if the
size of a spinlock_t changed (due to additional CONFIG options, etc.) the
sal call which populated the sn_flush_device_list structs would erroneously
write data (and cause memory corruption and/or a panic).
This patch does the following:
1. Removes sn_flush_device_list and adds sn_flush_device_common and
sn_flush_device_kernel.
2. Adds a new SAL call to populate a sn_flush_device_common struct per
device, not per widget as previously done.
3. Correctly initializes each device's sn_flush_device_kernel spinlock_t
struct (before it was only doing each widget's first device).

For the ixp2000 netdev driver, we need to map in a chunk of SRAM (to
store the transmit and receive descriptors) and the scratch get/put
area (so that we can use the scratchpad rings in the cpu for managing
the descriptors.) These are the final two mappings needed for the
netdev driver and the last missing piece for the driver in mainline

Add bus_type probe, remove and shutdown methods to replace the
corresponding methods in struct device_driver. This matches
the way we handle the suspend/resume methods.
Since the bus methods override the device_driver methods, warn

The long-term idea is to remove the device_driver methods entirely.

On PowerPC, we want to be able to provide an AT_PLATFORM aux table
entry to userspace, so that glibc can choose optimized libraries for
the processor we're running on. Unfortunately that would be the 21st
aux table entry on powerpc, meaning that the aux table including the
terminating null entry would overflow the mm->saved_auxv[] array,
leading to userland programs segfaulting.
This increases the size of the mm->saved_auxv array to be large enough
to accommodate an AT_PLATFORM entry on powerpc.

- Tunertype struct redefined to allow one or more tuner_params structs
per tuner definition, one for each video standard.
- Each tuner_params struct has an element containing an arbitrary
amount of tuner_ranges.
(this is needed for dvb tuners - to be handled later)
- A tuner_range may be referenced by multiple tuner_params structs.
There are many duplicates in here. Reusing tuner_range structs,
rather than defining new ones for each tuner, will cut down on
memory usage, and is preferred when possible.
- tunertype struct contains an element, has_tda988x.
We must set this for all tunertypes that contain a tda988x
chip, and then we can remove this setting from the various
card structs.
- Improves tuners array memory usage efficiency.
- Right now, all tuners are using the first tuner_params[] array element
for analog mode. In the future, we will be merging similar tuner
definitions together, such that each tuner definition will have a
tuner_params struct for each available video standard. At that point,
the tuner_params[] array element will be chosen based on the video
standard in use.

eieio is only a store - store ordering. When used to order an unlock
operation loads may leak out of the critical region. This is potentially
buggy, one example is if a user wants to atomically read a couple of
values.
We can solve this with an lwsync which orders everything except store - load.
I removed the (now unused) EIEIO_ON_SMP macros and the c versions
isync_on_smp and eieio_on_smp now we dont use them. I also removed some
old comments that were used to identify inline spinlocks in assembly,
they dont make sense now our locks are out of line.
Another interesting thing was that read_unlock was using an eieio even
though the rest of the spinlock code had already been converted to
use lwsync.

At present the lppaca - the structure shared with the iSeries
hypervisor and phyp - is contained within the PACA, our own low-level
per-cpu structure. This doesn't have to be so, the patch below
removes it, making a separate array of lppaca structures.
This saves approximately 500*NR_CPUS bytes of image size and kernel
memory, because we don't need aligning gap between the Linux and
hypervisor portions of every PACA. On the other hand it means an
extra level of dereference in many accesses to the lppaca.
The patch also gets rid of several places where we assign the paca
address to a local variable for no particular reason.

This patch consolidates the variety of macros used for loading 32 or
64-bit constants in assembler (LOADADDR, LOADBASE, SET_REG_TO_*). The
idea is to make the set of macros consistent across 32 and 64 bit and
to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given
situation. The new macros and their semantics are described in the
comments in ppc_asm.h.
In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using
immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC. Likewise we cleanup a
couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with
asm instructions to use assemble-time arithmetic or the toreal() macro
instead.

Add support for updating and removing device tree
properties. Since we hand out pointers to properties with gay
abandon, we can't just free the property storage. Instead we
move deleted, or the old copy of an updated property, to a
"dead properties" list.
Also note, its not feasable to kref device tree properties.
we call get_property() all over the kernel in a wild variety
of contexts.
One consequence of this change is that we now take a
read_lock(&devtree_lock) when doing get_property().

This monster-patch tries to do the best job for unifying the data
structures and backend interfaces for the three evil clones ip_tables,
ip6_tables and arp_tables. In an ideal world we would never have
allowed this kind of copy+paste programming... but well, our world
isn't (yet?) ideal.
o introduce a new x_tables module
o {ip,arp,ip6}_tables depend on this x_tables module
o registration functions for tables, matches and targets are only
wrappers around x_tables provided functions
o all matches/targets that are used from ip_tables and ip6_tables
are now implemented as xt_FOOBAR.c files and provide module aliases
to ipt_FOOBAR and ip6t_FOOBAR
o header files for xt_matches are in include/linux/netfilter/,
include/linux/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6} contains compatibility wrappers
around the xt_FOOBAR.h headers
Based on this patchset we're going to further unify the code,
gradually getting rid of all the layer 3 specific assumptions.
