dcad47fc42 [PATCH] powerpc: Kill ppcdebug
The ancient ppcdebug/PPCDBG mechanism is now only used in two places.
First, in the hash setup code, one of the bits allows the size of the
hash table to be reduced by a factor of 8 - which would be better
accomplished with a command line option for that purpose.  The other
was a bunch of bus walking related messages in the iSeries code, which
would seem to be insufficient reason to keep the mechanism.

This patch removes the last traces of this mechanism.

Built and booted on iSeries and pSeries POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc).

3c726f8dee [PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pages
Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel
base page size to 64K.  The resulting kernel still boots on any
hardware.  On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel
will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently.

Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch
will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm
still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the
information from the newer hypervisors.

3eac8c69d1 powerpc: Move default hash table size calculation to hash_utils_64.c
We weren't computing the size of the hash table correctly on iSeries
because the relevant code in prom.c was #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES.
This moves the code to hash_utils_64.c, makes it unconditional, and
cleans it up a bit.

ab1f9dac6e powerpc: Merge arch/ppc64/mm to arch/powerpc/mm
This moves the remaining files in arch/ppc64/mm to arch/powerpc/mm,
and arranges that we use them when compiling with ARCH=ppc64.
