This adds the PowerPC part of the code to allow processes to change
their endian mode via prctl.
This also extends the alignment exception handler to be able to fix up
alignment exceptions that occur in little-endian mode, both for
"PowerPC" little-endian and true little-endian.
We always enter signal handlers in big-endian mode -- the support for
little-endian mode does not amount to the creation of a little-endian
user/kernel ABI. If the signal handler returns, the endian mode is
restored to what it was when the signal was delivered.
We have two new kernel CPU feature bits, one for PPC little-endian and
one for true little-endian. Most of the classic 32-bit processors
support PPC little-endian, and this is reflected in the CPU feature
table. There are two corresponding feature bits reported to userland
in the AT_HWCAP aux vector entry.
This is based on an earlier patch by Anton Blanchard.

POWER6 moves some of the MMCRA bits and also requires some bits to be

Removed the do-nothing routines __setup_cpu_power3 and
__setup_cpu_power4 and replaced them with a null pointer check
in the caller. Also removed the Cell processor specific
routine __setup_cpu_be which improperly accessed the
hypervisor page size configuration at SPR HID6.

Add a cputable entry for the POWER6 processor.
The SIHV and SIPR bits in the mmcra have moved in POWER6, so disable
support for that until oprofile is fixed.
Also tell firmware that we know about POWER6.

In 2.6.15-git6 a change was commited in the oprofile support in
the powerpc architecture. It introduced the powerpc_oprofile_type
which contains the define G4. This causes a name clash with the
existing wacom usb tablet driver.
CC [M] drivers/usb/input/wacom.o
drivers/usb/input/wacom.c:98: error: conflicting types for `G4'
include/asm/cputable.h:37: error: previous declaration of `G4'

The elements of an enum declared in global scope are effectivly
global identifiers themselves. As such we need to ensure the names
are unique. This patch updates the later oprofile support to use
unique names.

The glibc folks want to use AT_PLATFORM to select between possible
alternative versions of shared libraries. This commit makes the kernel
supply an AT_PLATFORM string that indicates what class of processor
we are running on. Processors with the same set of user-level
instructions and roughly the same instruction scheduling characteristics
are given the same AT_PLATFORM value; for example, 821, 823 and 860
are all reported as "ppc823", and 7447, 7447A, 7448, 7450, 7451, 7455
are all called "ppc7450".
The intention is that the AT_PLATFORM values match the values that
gcc accepts for the -mcpu= option. For values which are numeric
(e.g. -mcpu=750), "ppc" has been prepended.
This also adds a PPC_FEATURE_BOOKE bit to the AT_HWCAP value and sets
it for the 440 family and the Freescale 85xx family.

My recent changes to oprofile broke it when built as a module. Fix it by
using an enum instead of a function pointer. This way we still retain
the oprofile configuration in the cputable.

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.
