Remove the iSeries initrd logic, instead just store the initrd location and
size in the device tree so generic code can do the rest for us.
The iSeries code had a "feature" which the generic code lacks, ie. if the
compressed initrd is bigger than the configured ram disk size, we make
the ram disk size bigger. That's bogus, as the compressed size of the initrd
tells us nothing about how big the ram disk needs to be. If the ram disk
isn't big enough you just need to make CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE larger.

The original problem that inspired this patch was solved quite some time
ago (Turning off PCI didn't work), but this patch neatens things up a
little (I think), by putting all the PCI stuff inside a single CONFIG_PCI
block. It also removes the OF PCI bus matching entries if CONFIG_PCI is
off.

Add the latest version of the flatdevtree code and corresponding glue.
A phandle table now tracks values returned by ft_find_device().
The value returned by ft_find_device() is a phandle which is really
an index into the phandle table. The phandle table contains the address
of the corresponding node. When the flat dt is edited/moved, the node
pointers in the phandle table are updated accordingly so no phandles kept
by the caller become stale.

The lazy IRQ disable patch missed a couple of places where the
interrupt enable flags need to be restored correctly. First, we
weren't restoring the paca->hard_enabled flag on interrupt exit.
Instead of saving it on entry, we compute it from the MSR_EE bit
in the MSR we are restoring at exit. Secondly, the MMU hash miss
code was clearing both paca->soft_enabled and paca->hard_enabled
but not restoring them in the case where hash_page was able to
resolve the miss from the Linux page tables.

Apparently we've copied the todc drivers, for various RTCs used in
embedded machines from ARCH=ppc to ARCH=powerpc, despite the fact that
it's never used in the latter. This patch removes it.
If we ever need these drivers (which we probably shouldn't now the RTC
class stuff is in), we can transfer them one by one from ARCH=ppc,
removing from the hideous abomination which is the todc
"infrastructure".

cpu-power-1:17.185
cpu-power-2:18.547
cpu-power-3:17.528
Total: 65.0W
If I lower HZ to 100, I can get it as low as:

Coming back out of Deep Nap takes 40-70 cycles longer than coming back

be a performance issue (interrupt latency on an idle system), but in
case someone does measurements feel free to report them.

This implements a lazy strategy for disabling interrupts. This means
that local_irq_disable() et al. just clear the 'interrupts are
enabled' flag in the paca. If an interrupt comes along, the interrupt
entry code notices that interrupts are supposed to be disabled, and
clears the EE bit in SRR1, clears the 'interrupts are hard-enabled'
flag in the paca, and returns. This means that interrupts only
actually get disabled in the processor when an interrupt comes along.
When interrupts are enabled by local_irq_enable() et al., the code
sets the interrupts-enabled flag in the paca, and then checks whether
interrupts got hard-disabled. If so, it also sets the EE bit in the
MSR to hard-enable the interrupts.
This has the potential to improve performance, and also makes it
easier to make a kernel that can boot on iSeries and on other 64-bit
machines, since this lazy-disable strategy is very similar to the
soft-disable strategy that iSeries already uses.
This version renames paca->proc_enabled to paca->soft_enabled, and
changes a couple of soft-disables in the kexec code to hard-disables,
which should fix the crash that Michael Ellerman saw. This doesn't
yet use a reserved CR field for the soft_enabled and hard_enabled
flags. This applies on top of Stephen Rothwell's patches to make it
possible to build a combined iSeries/other kernel.

During boot we bring up all memory and cpu nodes. Normally a PCI device
will be in one of these online nodes, however in some weird setups it
may not.
We have only seen this in the lab but we may as well check for the case
and fallback to -1 (all nodes).

At the moment we rely on a cpu feature bit or a firmware property to
detect altivec. If we dont have either of these and the cpu does in fact
support altivec we can cause a panic from userspace.
