This patch changes the syscall handler to doom (tabort) active
transactions when a syscall is made and return very early without
performing the syscall and keeping side effects to a minimum (no CPU
accounting or system call tracing is performed). Also included is a
new HWCAP2 bit, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC, to indicate this
behaviour to userspace.
Currently, the system call instruction automatically suspends an
active transaction which causes side effects to persist when an active
transaction fails.
This does change the kernel's behaviour, but in a way that was
documented as unsupported. It doesn't reduce functionality as
syscalls will still be performed after tsuspend; it just requires that
the transaction be explicitly suspended. It also provides a
consistent interface and makes the behaviour of user code
substantially the same across powerpc and platforms that do not
support suspended transactions (e.g. x86 and s390).
Performance measurements using
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c indicate the cost of
a normal (non-aborted) system call increases by about 0.25%.

The flush_tlb hook in cpu_spec was introduced as a generic function hook
to invalidate TLBs. But the current implementation of flush_tlb hook
takes IS (invalidation selector) as an argument which is architecture
dependent. Hence, It is not right to have a generic routine where caller
has to pass non-generic argument.
This patch fixes this and makes flush_tlb hook as high level API.

We inadvertently broke power3 support back in 3.4 with commit
f5339277eb "powerpc: Remove FW_FEATURE ISERIES from arch code".
No one noticed until at least 3.9.
By then we'd also broken it with the optimised memcpy, copy_to/from_user
and clear_user routines. We don't want to add any more complexity to
those just to support ancient cpus, so it seems like it's a good time to
drop support for power3 and earlier.

Maynard informed me that neither the oprofile kernel module nor oprofile

interface for power8, which is indicated by "ppc64/power8." This results
in no samples. The solution is to default to the "timer" type, instead.

to oprofile userspace to use "compatibility events" which are obsolete
in ISA 2.07.

When calling setup_cpu() on 64-bit, we pass a pointer to the
