Add a Disk Storage Driver for the PS3:
- Implemented as a block device driver with a dynamic major
- Disk names (and partitions) are of the format ps3d%c(%u)
- Uses software scatter-gather with a 64 KiB bounce buffer as the hypervisor
doesn't support scatter-gather

This sorts out the various lists and related locks in the spu code.
In detail:
- the per-node free_spus and active_list are gone. Instead struct spu
gained an alloc_state member telling whether the spu is free or not
- the per-node spus array is now locked by a per-node mutex, which
takes over from the global spu_lock and the per-node active_mutex
- the spu_alloc* and spu_free function are gone as the state change is
now done inline in the spufs code. This allows some more sharing of
code for the affinity vs normal case and more efficient locking
- some little refactoring in the affinity code for this locking scheme

This patch updates the existing arch/powerpc/oprofile/op_model_cell.c
to add in the SPU profiling capabilities. In addition, a 'cell' subdirectory
was added to arch/powerpc/oprofile to hold Cell-specific SPU profiling code.
Exports spu_set_profile_private_kref and spu_get_profile_private_kref which
are used by OProfile to store private profile information in spufs data
structures.
Also incorporated several fixes from other patches (rrn). Check pointer
returned from kzalloc. Eliminated unnecessary cast. Better error
handling and cleanup in the related area. 64-bit unsigned long parameter
was being demoted to 32-bit unsigned int and eventually promoted back to

Addition of a spufs-global "cbe_info" array. Each entry contains information
about one Cell/B.E. node, namelly:
* list of spus (both free and busy spus are in this list);
* list of free spus (replacing the static spu_list from spu_base.c)
* number of spus;
* number of reserved (non scheduleable) spus.
SPE affinity implementation actually requires only access to one spu per
BE node (since it implements its own pointer to walk through the other spus
of the ring) and the number of scheduleable spus (n_spus - non_sched_spus)
However having this more general structure can be useful for other
functionalities, concentrating per-cbe statistics / data.

on Axon-based Cell systems, using the MSIC mechanism.
This involves setting up an area of BE memory which the Axon
then uses as a FIFO for MSI messages. When one or more MSIs

and the MSI messages are written into the FIFO. At the moment
we use a 64KB FIFO, one per MSIC/BE.

The Axon bridge chip used on new Cell/B.E. based blade servers
comes with a DDR2 memory controller that can be used to
attach cheap memory modules, as opposed to the high-speed
XDR memory that is used by the CPU itself.
Since the memory controller does not participate in the
cache coherency protocol, we can not use the memory direcly
for Linux applications, but by providing a block device
it can be used for swap space, temporary file storage and
through the use of the direct_access block device operation
for mapping into user addresses, when it is mounted with
an appropriate file system.

The platforms missing the "cpus" property in the "be" node are mono-Cell
platforms such as CAB or Getaway.
Therefore it is possible to assume that if there is no "cpus" properties

more checking. This is a bit hacky but ... it allows it to work on

The pmi driver got simplified by removing support for multiple devices.
As there is no more than one pmi device per maschine, there is no need to
specify the device for listening and sending messages.
This way the caller (cbe_cpufreq) doesn't need to scan the device tree.
When registering the handler on a board without a pmi
interface, pmi.c will just return -ENODEV.
The patch that fixed the breakage of cell_defconfig has been
broken out of the earlier version of this patch. So this is
