On ppc64, when opening a new hugepage region, we need to make sure any
old normal-page SLBs for the area are flushed on all CPUs. There was
a bug in this logic - after putting the new hugepage area masks into
the thread structure, we copied it into the paca (read by the SLB miss
handler) only on one CPU, not on all. This could cause incorrect SLB
entries to be loaded when a multithreaded program was running
simultaneously on several CPUs. This patch corrects the error,
copying the context information into the PACA on all CPUs using the mm
in question before flushing any existing SLB entries.

On most powerpc CPUs, the dcache and icache are not coherent so
between writing and executing a page, the caches must be flushed.
Userspace programs assume pages given to them by the kernel are icache
clean, so we must do this flush between the kernel clearing a page and
it being mapped into userspace for execute. We were not doing this
for hugepages, this patch corrects the situation.
We use the same lazy mechanism as we use for normal pages, delaying
the flush until userspace actually attempts to execute from the page
in question.
Tested on G5.

Cache info is setup by walking the device tree in initialize_cache_info().
However, icache_flush_range might be called before that, in
slb_initialize()->patch_slb_encoding, which modifies the load immediate
instructions used with SLB fault code.
Not only that, but depending on memory layout, we might take SLB faults
during unflatten_device_tree. So that fault will load an SLB entry that
might not contain the right LLP flags for the segment.
Either we can walk the flattened device tree to setup cache info, or
we can pick the known defaults that are known to work. Doing it in the
flattened device tree is hairier since we need to know the machine type
to know what property to look for, etc, etc.
For now, it's just easier to go with the defaults. Worst thing that
happens from it is that we might waste a few cycles doing too small
dcbst/icbi increments.

Some debug code wasn't properly removed from the initial 64k pages
patch, and while it's harmless, it's also slowing down significantly a
very hot code path, thus it should really be removed.

The 64k pages patch changed the meaning of one argument passed to the
low level hash functions (from "large" it became "psize" or page size
index), but one of the call sites wasn't properly updated, causing
potential random weird problems with huge pages. This fixes it.

This bug exists in the current code and prevents machines from booting
with numa enabled if there is a node that does not contain memory.
Workaround is to boot with 'numa=off'. Looks like a simple typo.

This reverts commit da0825fd20, making
it so that if you select CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM you get support
for PMAC, PREP and CHRP built in.
The reason for not allowing PMAC, PREP and CHRP to be selected
individually for ARCH=ppc is that there is too much interdependency
between them in the platform support code. For example, CHRP uses
the PMAC nvram code.
Configuring with ARCH=powerpc does allow you to select support for
PMAC and CHRP separately. Support for PREP is not there yet but
should be there soon.

The previous commit will use the page-at-a-time hypervisor call for
setting up IOMMU entries when we are using 64k pages and setting up
one 64k page, even though that means 16 calls to the hypervisor, since
the hypervisor still works on 4k pages. This optimizes this case by
using the multi-page IOMMU setup hypervisor call instead.

Type 0x103 ("TCL MFNM05-4") in the Hauppauge eeprom is a more recent tuner
that maps to TUNER_PHILIPS_FM1236_MK3. This had been previously defined but
due to some accident the definition got removed. This change restores that
definition. Change committed on advice from Hans Verkuil
<hverkuil@xs4all.nl>, who thinks he's the one who had accidentally removed it
before.
