and that replaces the massive amount of by-hand TLB probing and
programming we used to do here.
The new code should also handle properly the case where the kernel
is mapped at the correct address already (think: future kexec
support).
Consequently, the bulk of remap_kernel() dies as does the entirety
of arch/sparc64/prom/map.S
We try to share some strings in the PROM library with the ones used
at bootup, and while we're here mark input strings to oplib.h routines
with "const" when appropriate.
There are many more simplifications now possible. For one thing, we
can consolidate the two copies we now have of a lot of cpu setup code
sitting in head.S and trampoline.S.
This is a significant step towards CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support.

Because we don't access the PAGE_OFFSET linear mappings
any longer before we take over the trap table from the
firmware, we don't need to load dummy mappings there
into the TLB and we don't need the bootmap_base hack
any longer either.
While we are here, check for a larger than 8MB kernel
and halt the boot with an error message. We know that
doesn't work, so instead of failing mysteriously we
should let the user know exactly what's wrong.

Just allocate them physically starting from the end of

This was kind of ugly, and actually buggy. The bug was that
we didn't handle a machine with memory starting > 4GB. If
the 'prompmd' was allocated in physical memory > 4GB we'd
croak because the obp_iaddr_patch and obp_daddr_patch things

The fix is to return 0, instead of -ENODEV, in

* Fix's for SPI - Echo Buffer
* Several fix's in mptscsih_io_done - FCP Response

* Cleanup Error Handling - EH handlers,
