When we have MMU on exceptions (POWER8) and a relocatable kernel, we
need to branch from the initial exception vectors at 0x0 to up high
where the kernel might be located. Currently we do this using the link
register.
Unfortunately this corrupts the link stack and instead we should use the
count register. We did this for the syscall entry path in:
6a40480 powerpc: Avoid link stack corruption in MMU on syscall entry path
but I stupidly forgot to do the same for other exceptions.
This patch changes the initial exception vectors to use the count
register instead of the link register when we need to branch up to the
relocated kernel.
I have a dodgy userspace test which loops calling a function that reads
the PVR (mfpvr in userspace will be emulated by the kernel via the
program check exception). On POWER8 and with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y, I
get a ~10% performance improvement with my userspace test with this
patch.

So far "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/physical_package_id"
was always default (-1) on ppc64 architecture.
Now, some systems have an ibm,chip-id property in the cpu nodes in
the device tree. On these systems, we now use this information to
display physical_package_id.

changes for V4:
- changes the type of frozen_pe_no from %d to %llu
in pr_devel()
'pe_no' hasn't been defined, it should be an typo error,
it should be 'frozen_pe_no'.
Also '__func__' has missed in IODA_EEH_DBG(),
For safety reasons, use pr_devel() directly, instead
of use IODA_EEH_DBG()

This reverts commit c8db32c8669f7de05b820ee4934926405af52188.
The commit breaks the build of all my 64-bit embedded configs. It
looks like gcc-4.7.3 doesn't know about e5500. Additionally it
incorrectly does -mcpu=e5500 on a config that has both e5500 and A2
support enabled.

The denormalized exception handler (denorm_exception_hv) has a couple
of bugs. If the CONFIG_PPC_DENORMALISATION option is not selected,
or the HSRR1_DENORM bit is not set in HSRR1, we don't test whether the
interrupt occurred within a KVM guest. On the other hand, if the
HSRR1_DENORM bit is set and CONFIG_PPC_DENORMALISATION is enabled,
we corrupt the CFAR and PPR.
To correct these problems, this replaces the open-coded version of
EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1 that is there currently, and that is missing the
saving of PPR and CFAR values to the PACA, with an instance of
EXCEPTION_PROLOG_1. This adds an explicit KVMTEST after testing
whether the exception is one we can handle, and adds code to restore
the CFAR on exit.

In the current kernel, the function flush_fp_to_thread() is not
dependent on CONFIG_PPC_FPU. So most invocations of this function
is not wrapped by CONFIG_PPC_FPU. Even through we don't really
save the FPRs to the thread struct if CONFIG_PPC_FPU is not enabled,
but there does have some runtime overhead such as the check for
tsk->thread.regs and preempt disable and enable. It really make
no sense to do that. So make it a nop when CONFIG_PPC_FPU is
disabled. Also remove the wrapped #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_FPU
when invoking this function.

For some SoC (such as the FSL BookE) even though there does have
a hardware FPU, but not all floating point instructions are
implemented. Unfortunately some versions of gcc do use these
unimplemented instructions. Then we have to enable the math emulation
to workaround this issue. It seems a little redundant to have the
support to emulate all the floating point instructions in this case.
So split the math emulation into two parts. One is for the SoC which
doesn't have FPU at all and the other for the SoC which does have the
hardware FPU and only need some special floating point instructions to
be emulated.

ntpd[2713]: unhandled signal 4 at 0fd5b448 nip 0fd5b448 lr 0fd5b424 code 30001

The udbg_16550 code, which we use for our early consoles and debug
backends was fairly messy. Especially for the debug consoles, it
would re-implement the "high level" getc/putc/poll functions for
each access method. It also had code to configure the UART but only
for the straight MMIO method.
This changes it to instead abstract at the register accessor level,
and have the various functions and configuration routines use these.
The result is simpler and slightly smaller code, and free support
for non-MMIO mapped PIO UARTs, which such as the ones that can be
present on a POWER 8 LPC bus.

We have a bunch of CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_* options that are intended
for bringup/debug only. They hard wire a machine specific udbg backend
very early on (before we even probe the platform), and use whatever
tricks are available on each machine/cpu to be able to get some kind
of output out there early on.
So far, on powermac with no serial ports, we have CONFIG_PPC_EARLY_DEBUG_BOOTX
to use the low-level btext engine on the screen, but it doesn't do much, at
least on 64-bit. It only really gets enabled after the platform has been
probed and the MMU enabled.
This adds a way to enable it much earlier. From prom_init.c (while still
running with Open Firmware), we grab the screen details and set things up
using the physical address of the frame buffer.
Then btext itself uses the "rm_ci" feature of the 970 processor (Real
Mode Cache Inhibited) to access it while in real mode.
We need to do a little bit of reorg of the btext code to inline things
better, in order to limit how much we touch memory while in this mode as
the consequences might be ... interesting.
This successfully allowed me to debug problems early on with the G5
(related to gold being broken vs. ppc64 kernels).

Since 2002, the kernel has not saved VRSAVE on exception entry and
restored it on exit; rather, VRSAVE gets context-switched in _switch.
This means that when executing in process context in the kernel, the
userspace VRSAVE value is live in the VRSAVE register.
However, the signal code assumes that current->thread.vrsave holds
the current VRSAVE value, which is incorrect. Therefore, this
commit changes it to use the actual VRSAVE register instead. (It
still uses current->thread.vrsave as a temporary location to store
it in, as __get_user and __put_user can only transfer to/from a
variable, not an SPR.)
This also modifies the transactional memory code to save and restore
VRSAVE regardless of whether VMX is enabled in the MSR. This is
because accesses to VRSAVE are not controlled by the MSR.VEC bit,
but can happen at any time.

Other architectures have a __get_user_pages_fast(), in addition to the
regular get_user_pages_fast(), which doesn't call get_user_pages() on
failure, and thus doesn't attempt to fault pages in or COW them. The
generic KVM code uses __get_user_pages_fast() to detect whether a page
for which we have only requested read access is actually writable.
This provides an implementation of __get_user_pages_fast() by
splitting the existing get_user_pages_fast() in two. With this, the
generic KVM code will get the right answer instead of always
considering such pages non-writable.
