9c21025c78 powerpc: wii: hollywood interrupt controller support
Add support for the dual interrupt controller included in the "Hollywood"
chipset of the Nintendo Wii video game console.
This interrupt controller serves both the Broadway processor (as a cascade)
and the Starlet processor, and is used to manage interrupts for the
non-classic hardware.

e8105903d7 powerpc: Fix DEBUG_HIGHMEM build break from d451564669
Code was added to mm/higmem.c that depends on several
kmap types that powerpc does not support.  We add dummy
invalid definitions for KM_NMI, KM_NM_PTE, and KM_IRQ_PTE.

According to list discussion, this fix should not be needed
anymore starting with 2.6.33.  The code is commented to this
effect so hopefully we will remember to remove this.

This patch fixes USB GPIOs numbers for MPC8569E-MDS boards, plus
according to the latest HW Getting Started Guide (rev 3.3, pilot
boards), USB "POWER" GPIO polarity has changed, it is no longer
inverted.

This patch makes USB Host somewhat work on pilot boards, though
there are still some problems with determining devices speed and
long bulk transfers.

cb5485a0b9 powerpc/85xx: sbc8548 - fixup of PCI-e related DTS fields
The PCI-e addressing was originally patterned of the MPC8548CDS
which has PCI1, PCI2, and PCI-e.  Since this board only has
PCI1 and PCI-e, it makes more sense to be similar to the MPC8568MDS
board.  This does that by cutting the PCI/PCI-e I/O sizes from
16MB to 8MB and pulling the PCI-e I/O range back to 0xe280_0000
(the hole where PCI2 I/O would have been).

This also fixes a typo where an extra zero made an 8MB range a 128MB
range, removes the hole left by PCI2 from the aliases, and sets the
clocks to match the oscillators that are actually on the board.

With accompanying u-boot updates, PCI-e has been validated with
both a sky2 card (1148:9e00) and an e1000 card (8086:108b).

4f917ba3d5 powerpc/ppc64: Use preempt_schedule_irq instead of preempt_schedule
Based on an original patch by Valentine Barshak <vbarshak@ru.mvista.com>

Use preempt_schedule_irq to prevent infinite irq-entry and
eventual stack overflow problems with fast-paced IRQ sources.

This kind of problems has been observed on the PASemi Electra IDE
controller. We have to make sure we are soft-disabled before calling
preempt_schedule_irq and hard disable interrupts after that
to avoid unrecoverable exceptions.

This patch also moves the "clrrdi r9,r1,THREAD_SHIFT" out of
the #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E scope, since r9 is clobbered
and has to be restored in both cases.

b6dcde5c74 powerpc: Fix hypervisor TLB batching
Profiling of a page fault scalability microbenchmark shows flush_hash_range
is not calling the batch hpte invalidate hcall (H_BULK_REMOVE).

It turns out we have a duplicate firmware feature for hcall-bulk and the
current setup code stops after finding the first match. This meant we never
batch and always do individual invalidates.

The patch below removes the duplicate and shifts FW_FEATURE_CMO to close
the gap. With the patch applied the single threaded page fault rate improves
from 217169 to 238755 per second on a POWER5 test box, a 10% improvement.

8d8997f34e powerpc/mm: Fix hang accessing top of vmalloc space
On pSeries, we always force the IO space to be mapped using 4K
pages even with a 64K base page size to cope with some limitations
in the HV interface to some devices.

However, the SLB miss handler code to discriminate between vmalloc
and ioremap space uses a CPU feature section such that the code
is nop'ed out when the processor support large pages non-cachable
mappings.

Thus, we end up always using the ioremap page size for vmalloc
segments on such processors, causing a discrepency between the
segment and the hash table, and thus a hang continously hashing
the page.

It works for the first segment of the vmalloc space since that
segment is "bolted" in by C code correctly, and thankfully we
almost never use the vmalloc space beyond the first segment,
but the new percpu code made the bug happen.

This fixes it by removing the feature section from the assembly,
we now always do the comparison between vmalloc and ioremap.
