This adds two sysfs attributes to /sys/bus/ibmebus which can be used to
notify the ebus driver of added / removed ebus devices in the OF device
tree.
Echoing the device's location code (as found in the OFDT "ibm,loc-code"
property) into the "probe" attribute will notify ebus of addition of the
device and cause the appropriate device driver's probe function to be called
on the device.
Likewise, echoing the location code into the "remove" attribute will cause
the device to be removed from the system.
The writes will block until the respective operation has finished and return
an error code if the operation failed.
In addition, two minor tidbits are fixed:
- The fake root device used to provide a common parent for all ebus devices
is now based on device instead of of_device - it had no associated devtree
node. This saves several checks throughout the ebus driver.
- The sysfs attributes are now generated automagically by device_register()
instead of by the ibmebus code, which saves a few compiler warnings about
unused return codes.

Fix atomicity of TIF update in flush_thread() for powerpc

Most of ft_get_parent() is factored out into __ft_get_parent(), which
deals only in internal node pointers. The ft_get_parent() wrapper
handles phandle conversion in both directions (previously,
ft_get_parent() did not convert its return value).
It also now returns NULL as the parent of the toplevel node, rather than
just returning the toplevel node again (which made it rather useless in
loops).

This patch re-organises the way the zImage wrapper code is entered, to
allow more flexibility on platforms with unusual entry conditions.
After this patch, a platform .o file has two options:
1) It can define a _zimage_start, in which case the platform code gets
control from the very beginning of execution. In this case the
platform code is responsible for relocating the zImage if necessary,
clearing the BSS, performing any platform specific initialization, and
finally calling start() to load and enter the kernel.
2) It can define platform_init(). In this case the generic crt0.S
handles initial entry, and calls platform_init() before calling
start(). The signature of platform_init() is changed, however, to
take up to 5 parameters (in r3..r7) as they come from the platform's
initial loader, instead of a fixed set of parameters based on OF's
usage.
When using the generic crt0.S, the platform .o can optionally
supply a custom stack to use, using the BSS_STACK() macro. If this
is not supplied, the crt0.S will assume that the loader has
supplied a usable stack.
In either case, the platform code communicates information to the
generic code (specifically, a PROM pointer for OF systems, and/or an
initrd image address supplied by the bootloader) via a global
structure "loader_info".
In addition the wrapper script is rearranged to ensure that the
platform .o is always linked first. This means that platforms where
the zImage entry point is at a fixed address or offset, rather than
being encoded in the binary header can be supported using option (1).

This patch rewrites prep_kernel() in the zImage wrapper code to be
clearer and more flexible. Notable changes:
- Handling of the initrd image from prep_kernel() has moved
into a new prep_initrd() function.
- The address of the initrd image is now added as device tree
properties, as the kernel expects.
- We only copy a packaged initrd image to a new location if it
is in danger of being clobbered when the kernel moves to its final
location, instead of always.
- By default we decompress the kernel directly to address 0,
instead of requiring it to relocate itself. Platforms (such as OF)
where doing this could clobber still-live firmware data structures can
override the vmlinux_alloc hook to provide an alternate place to
decompress the kernel.
- We no longer pass lots of information between functions in
global variables.

At present, arch/powerpc/boot/main.c includes a gunzip() function
which is a convenient wrapper around zlib. However, it doesn't
conveniently allow decompressing part of an image to one location,
then the remainder to a different address.
This patch adds a new set of more flexible convenience wrappers around
zlib, moving them to their own file, gunzip_util.c, in the process.
These wrappers allow decompressing sections of the compressed image to
different locations. In addition, they transparently handle
uncompressed data, avoiding special case code to handle uncompressed
vmlinux images.
The patch also converts main.c to use the new wrappers, using the new
flexibility to avoid decompressing the vmlinux's ELF header twice as
we did previously. That in turn means we avoid extending our
allocations for the vmlinux to allow space for the extra copy of the
ELF header.

VMI is broken under COMPAT_VDSO, as Xen and other non hardware assisted
hypervisors will be. I have been working on a fix for this which works
for older glibcs that panic when the new relocatable VDSO is used.
However, I believe at this time that the fix is going to be too radical
to consider at this stage in the release of 2.6.21. We don't expect
this config option to be turned on by vendors for new distributions, so
at this point we are willing to drop support for it when VMI is compiled
in, and work on a patch for 2.6.22 which more fully addresses the
problem.

When a SH7751R system includes a card that has wide range space
like a graphics card, the pci-pci bridge controller can't set the
correct address range.
For example, when *lower_limit is 0xfd000000 and bar_size is
0x4000000, in the following code at arch/sh/drivers/pci/pci-auto.c,
0x0 is set in bar_value.
pciauto_setup_bars()
{
...
bar_value = ((*lower_limit - 1) & ~(bar_size - 1)) + bar_size;
...
*lower_limit = bar_value + bar_size;
}
As a result, 0x4000000 is set in *lower_limit, but this value is wrong.
The following patch avoids this problem by checking the range of the
value and refusing to update the BAR if the calculated value ends up
being bogus.
