Michael Ellerman 529d235a0e powerpc: Add a proper syscall for switching endianness
We currently have a "special" syscall for switching endianness. This is
syscall number 0x1ebe, which is handled explicitly in the 64-bit syscall
exception entry.

That has a few problems, firstly the syscall number is outside of the
usual range, which confuses various tools. For example strace doesn't
recognise the syscall at all.

Secondly it's handled explicitly as a special case in the syscall
exception entry, which is complicated enough without it.

As a first step toward removing the special syscall, we need to add a
regular syscall that implements the same functionality.

The logic is simple, it simply toggles the MSR_LE bit in the userspace
MSR. This is the same as the special syscall, with the caveat that the
special syscall clobbers fewer registers.

This version clobbers r9-r12, XER, CTR, and CR0-1,5-7.

* This table defines the system calls that an SPU can call.

*
* The reasons for disabling some of the system calls are:
* 1. They interact with the way SPU syscalls are handled
* and we can't let them execute ever:
* restart_syscall, exit, for, execve, ptrace, ...
* 2. They are deprecated and replaced by other means:
* uselib, pciconfig_*, sysfs, ...
* 3. They are somewhat interacting with the system in a way
* we don't want an SPU to:
* reboot, init_module, mount, kexec_load
* 4. They are optional and we can't rely on them being
* linked into the kernel. Unfortunately, the cond_syscall
* helper does not work here as it does not add the necessary
* opd symbols:
* mbind, mq_open, ipc, ...
