Until this point, systems that have had memory represented in the device
tree with a node for each lmb the drc index would (luckily) closely
track the base address of the lmb. For example a lmb with a drc index
of 8000000a would have a base address of a0000000. This correlation
allowed the current code to derive the starting page frame number from
the drc inddex
Device tree layouts where lmbs are represented under the
ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory node in the ibm,dynamic-memory

powerpc: Add 64 bit version of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect
The implementation of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() directly calls
ptep_set_wrprotect() to mark a hugepte write protected. However this
call is not appropriate on ppc64 kernels as this is a small page only
implementation. This can lead to the hash not being flushed correctly
when a mapping is being converted to COW, allowing processes to continue
using the original copy.
Currently huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() unconditionally calls
ptep_set_wrprotect(). This is fine on ppc32 kernels as this call is
generic. On 64 bit this is implemented as:
pte_update(mm, addr, ptep, _PAGE_RW, 0);
On ppc64 this last parameter is the page size and is passed directly on
to hpte_need_flush():
hpte_need_flush(mm, addr, ptep, old, huge);
And this directly affects the page size we pass to flush_hash_page():
flush_hash_page(vaddr, rpte, psize, ssize, 0);
As this changes the way the hash is calculated we will flush the wrong
pages, potentially leaving live hashes to the original page.

We achieve this by extending the existing FTR macros. The current feature
section semantic just becomes a special case, ie. if the else case is empty
we nop out the default case.
The key limitation is that the size of the else case must be less than or
equal to the size of the default case. If the else case is smaller the
remainder of the section is nop'ed.
We let the linker put the else case code in with the rest of the text,
so that relative branches from the else case are more likley to link,
this has the disadvantage that we can't free the unused else cases.

patch_branch(), which just creates the branch and patches it directly.
While we're touching all the callers, change to using unsigned int *,
as this seems to match usage better. That allows (and requires) us to
remove the volatile in the definition of vector in powermac/smp.c and
mpc86xx_smp.c, that's correct because now that we're passing vector as
an unsigned int * the compiler knows that it's value might change
across the patch_branch() call.

powerpc: Move code patching code into arch/powerpc/lib/code-patching.c
We currently have a few routines for patching code in asm/system.h, because
they didn't fit anywhere else. I'd like to clean them up a little and add
some more, so first move them into a dedicated C file - they don't need to
be inlined.
While we're moving the code, drop create_function_call(), it's intended
caller never got merged and will be replaced in future with something
different.

drivers/macintosh/smu.c: Improve error handling
This makes two changes:
* As noted by Akinobu Mita in patch b1fceac2b9e04d278316b2faddf276015fc06e3b, alloc_bootmem never returns NULL
and always returns a zeroed region of memory. Thus the error checking code
and memset after the call to alloc_bootmem are not necessary.
* The old error handling code consisted of setting a global variable to
NULL and returning an error code, which could cause previously allocated
resources never to be freed. The patch adds calls to appropriate resource
deallocation functions.

powerpc: Only demote individual slices rather than whole process
At present, if we have a kernel with a 64kB page size, and some
process maps something that has to be mapped with 4kB pages (such as a
cache-inhibited mapping on POWER5+, or the eHCA infiniband queue-pair
pages), we change the process to use 4kB pages everywhere. This hurts
the performance of HPC programs that access eHCA from userspace.
With this patch, the kernel will only demote the slice(s) containing
the eHCA or cache-inhibited mappings, leaving the remaining slices
able to use 64kB hardware pages.
This also changes the slice_get_unmapped_area code so that it is
willing to place a 64k-page mapping into (or across) a 4k-page slice
if there is no better alternative, i.e. if the program specified
MAP_FIXED or if there is not sufficient space available in slices that
are either empty or already have 64k-page mappings in them.

powerpc: Get rid of bitfields in ppc_bat struct
While working on the 36-bit physical support, I noticed that there
was exactly one line of code that actually referenced the bitfields.
So I got rid of them and redefined ppc_bat as a struct of 2 u32's:
batu and batl. I also got rid of the previous union that held the
bitfield structs and a word representation of the batu/l values.
This seems like a nicer solution than adding in a bunch of
new bitfields to support extended bat addressing that would never
get used, and just leaving the struct as-is would have been
incomplete in the face of large physical addressing.

This frees a PTE bit when using 64K pages on ppc64. This is done
by getting rid of the separate _PAGE_HASHPTE bit. Instead, we just test
if any of the 16 sub-page bits is set. For non-combo pages (ie. real
64K pages), we set SUB0 and the location encoding in that field.
