[POWERPC] Prepare for splitting up mmu.h by MMU type
Currently asm-powerpc/mmu.h has definitions for the 64-bit hash based
MMU. If CONFIG_PPC64 is not set, it instead includes asm-ppc/mmu.h
which contains a particularly horrible mess of #ifdefs giving the
definitions for all the various 32-bit MMUs.
It would be nice to have the low level definitions for each MMU type
neatly in their own separate files. It would also be good to wean
arch/powerpc off dependence on the old asm-ppc/mmu.h.
This patch makes a start on such a cleanup by moving the definitions
for the 64-bit hash MMU to their own file, asm-powerpc/mmu_hash64.h.
Definitions for the other MMUs still all come from asm-ppc/mmu.h,
however each MMU type can now be one-by-one moved over to their own
file, in the process cleaning them up stripping them of cruft no
longer necessary in arch/powerpc.

BenH's commit a741e67969577163a4cfc78d7fd2753219087ef1 in powerpc.git,
although (AFAICT) only intended to affect ppc64, also has side-effects
which break 44x. I think 40x, 8xx and Freescale Book E are also
affected, though I haven't tested them.
The problem lies in unconditionally removing flush_tlb_pending() from
the versions of flush_tlb_mm(), flush_tlb_range() and
flush_tlb_kernel_range() used on ppc64 - which are also used the
embedded platforms mentioned above.
The patch below cleans up the convoluted #ifdef logic in tlbflush.h,
in the process restoring the necessary flushes for the software TLB
platforms. There are three sets of definitions for the flushing
hooks: the software TLB versions (revised to avoid using names which
appear to related to TLB batching), the 32-bit hash based versions
(external functions) amd the 64-bit hash based versions (which
implement batching).
It also moves the declaration of update_mmu_cache() to always be in
tlbflush.h (previously it was in tlbflush.h except for PPC64, where it
was in pgtable.h).

Commit 79c8541924a220964f9f2cbed31eaa9fdb042eab introduced code to move

checks whether the values passed in r3 and r4 are intended to indicate
the start address and size of an initrd image was not as thorough as the
kernel's checks. The symptom is that on OF-based platforms, the
bootwrapper can cause an exception which causes the system to drop back
into OF.
Previously it didn't matter so much if the code incorrectly thought that
there was an initrd, since the values for start and size were just passed
through to the kernel. Now the bootwrapper needs to apply the same checks
as the kernel since it is now using the initrd data itself (in the process
