Add support for caching, to reduce FLASH wear when writing using small
blocksizes. As we also don't care anymore about heads and tails in case of
partial writes, this greatly simplifies the code for handling writes.
Note: We don't bother caching reads smaller than the FLASH chunk size
(256 KiB).

Currently the FLASH database is updated by the kernel using file operations,
meant for userspace only. While this works for us because copy_{from,to}_user()
on powerpc can handle kernel pointers, this is unportable and a bad example.
Replace the file operations by callbacks, registered by the ps3flash driver.

In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access
to the driver_data pointer in struct device. Instead, the functions
dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used. These functions
have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with
all older kernel versions.

Remove the mutex serializing access to the cache.
Instead, queue up new requests on a bio_list if the driver is busy.
This improves sequential write performance by ca. 2%.

Introduce bio_list_peek(), to obtain a pointer to the first bio on the bio_list
without actually removing it from the list. This is needed when you want to
serialize based on the list being empty or not.

This makes 32-bit powerpc use the generic atomic64_t implementation.

Many processor architectures have no 64-bit atomic instructions, but
we need atomic64_t in order to support the perf_counter subsystem.
This adds an implementation of 64-bit atomic operations using hashed
spinlocks to provide atomicity. For each atomic operation, the address
of the atomic64_t variable is hashed to an index into an array of 16
spinlocks. That spinlock is taken (with interrupts disabled) around the
operation, which can then be coded non-atomically within the lock.
On UP, all the spinlock manipulation goes away and we simply disable
interrupts around each operation. In fact gcc eliminates the whole
atomic64_lock variable as well.

On 32-bit non-Book E, local_irq_restore() turns into just mtmsr(),
which doesn't currently have a compiler memory barrier. This means
that accesses to memory inside a local_irq_save/restore section,
or a spin_lock_irqsave/spin_unlock_irqrestore section on UP, can
be reordered by the compiler to occur outside that section.
To fix this, this adds a compiler memory barrier to mtmsr for both
32-bit and 64-bit. Having a compiler memory barrier in mtmsr makes
sense because it will almost always be changing something about the
context in which memory accesses are done, so in general we don't want
memory accesses getting moved from one side of an mtmsr to the other.
With the barrier in mtmsr(), some of the explicit barriers in
hw_irq.h are now redundant, so this removes them.

signal_vsp_instruction() is currently only used if CONFIG_PROC_FS
is enabled. However logically it has nothing to do with PROC_FS,
so rather than making it depend on that mark it as maybe unused.

Commit 28794d34 ("powerpc/kconfig: Kill PPC_MULTIPLATFORM"), added
CONFIG_PPC_OF_BOOT_TRAMPOLINE to control the buliding of prom_init.o
However the Makefile still unconditionally builds prom_init_check,
the script that checks prom_init.o for symbol usage, and so in turn
prom_init.o is still always being built. (it's not linked though)
So surround all the prom_init_check logic with an ifeq block testing
if CONFIG_PPC_OF_BOOT_TRAMPOLINE is set.
