Most 64 bit architectures I'm aware of support running 32 bit code
of the same architecture as well.
So x86_64 can run i386 code easily and ppc64 can run ppc code.
Unfortunately, the current checks are pretty strict. So you can only
load e.g. an x86_64 elf binary on qemu-system-x86_64, but no i386 one.
This can get really annoying. I first encountered this issue with
my multiboot patch, where qemu-system-x86_64 was unable to load an
i386 elf binary because the elf loader rejected it.
The same thing happened again on PPC64 now. The firmware we're loading
is a PPC32 elf binary, as it's shared with PPC32. But the platform is
PPC64.
Right now there is a hack for this in the ppc cpu.h definition, that
simply sets the type to PPC32 in system emulation mode. While that
works fine for the firmware, it's no good if you also want to load a
PPC64 kernel with -kernel.
So in order to solve this mess, I figured the easiest way is to make
the elf loader aware of platforms that are backwards compatible. For
now I was only sure that x86_64 does i386 and ppc64 does ppc32, but
maybe there are other combinations too.
This patch is a prerequisite for having a working -kernel option on
PPC64.

Real 970 CPUs have the SLB not memory backed, but inside the CPU.
This breaks bridge mode for 970 for now, but at least keeps us from
overwriting physical addresses 0x0 - 0x300, rendering our interrupt
handlers useless.
I put in a stub for bridge mode operation that could be enabled
easily, but for now it's safer to leave that off I guess (970fx doesn't
have bridge mode AFAIK).

The current SLB/PTE code does not support large pages, which are
required by Linux, as it boots up with the kernel regions up as large.
This patch implements large page support, so we can run Linux.

In order to modify SLB entries on recent PPC64 machines, the slbmte
instruction is used.
This patch implements the slbmte instruction and makes the "bridge"
mode code use the slb set functions, so we can move the SLB into
the CPU struct later.
This is required for Linux to run on PPC64.

This patch refactors the way the CPU state is handled that is associated
with a TB. The basic motivation is to move more arch specific code out
of generic files. Specifically the long #ifdef clutter in tb_find_fast()
has to be overcome in order to avoid duplicating it for the gdb
watchpoint fixes (patch "Restore pc on watchpoint hits").

It looks like the i386 runs out of registers for allocation due
to too many global registers allocated by the ppc target.
Here is a quick and dirty fix that seems to solve the problem.
