4e8b0cf46b powerpc/pseries: Add support for dynamic dma windows
If firmware allows us to map all of a partition's memory for DMA on a
particular bridge, create a 1:1 mapping of that memory. Add hooks for
dealing with hotplug events. Dynamic DMA windows can use larger than the
default page size, and we use the largest one possible.

710ac54be4 dt/powerpc: move of_bus_type infrastructure to ibmebus
arch/powerpc/kernel/ibmebus.c is the only remaining user of the
of_bus_type support code for initializing the bus and registering
drivers.  All others have either been switched to the vanilla platform
bus or already have their own infrastructure.

This patch moves the functionality that ibmebus is using out of
drivers/of/{platform,device}.c and into ibmebus.c where it is actually
used.  Also renames the moved symbols from of_platform_* to
ibmebus_bus_* to reflect the actual usage.

This patch is part of moving all of the of_platform_bus_type users
over to the platform_bus_type.

This is useful for system management software so that it can kick
off things like gettys and everything that's started from a tty,
before we reuse it from/for something else or shut it down.

Without this ioctl it would have to temporarily become the owner of

1f1936ff3f powerpc: Fix some 6xx/7xxx CPU setup functions
Some of those functions try to adjust the CPU features, for example
to remove NAP support on some revisions. However, they seem to use
r5 as an index into the CPU table entry, which might have been right
a long time ago but no longer is. r4 is the right register to use.

This probably caused some off behaviours on some PowerMac variants
using 750cx or 7455 processor revisions.

af9eef3c7b powerpc: Pass the right cpu_spec to ->setup_cpu() on 64-bit
When calling setup_cpu() on 64-bit, we pass a pointer to the
cputable entry we have found. This used to be fine when cur_cpu_spec
was a pointer to that entry, but nowadays, we copy the entry into
a separate variable, and we do so before we call the setup_cpu()
callback. That means that any attempt by that callback at patching
the CPU table entry (to adjust CPU features for example) will patch
the wrong table.

19df0c2fef percpu: align percpu readmostly subsection to cacheline
Currently percpu readmostly subsection may share cachelines with other
percpu subsections which may result in unnecessary cacheline bounce
and performance degradation.

This patch adds @cacheline parameter to PERCPU() and PERCPU_VADDR()
linker macros, makes each arch linker scripts specify its cacheline
size and use it to align percpu subsections.

This is based on Shaohua's x86 only patch.
