This adds block-step support on powerpc, including a PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK
request for ptrace.
The BookE implementation is tweaked to fire a single step after a
block step in order to mimmic the server behaviour.

Create a new header that becomes a single location for defining PowerPC
opcodes used by code that is either generationg instructions
at runtime (fixups, debug, etc.), emulating instructions, or just
compiling instructions old assemblers don't know about.
We currently don't handle the floating point emulation or alignment decode
as both are better handled by the specific decode support they already
have.
Added support for the new dcbzl, dcbal, msgsnd, tlbilx, & wait instructions
since older assemblers don't know about them.

This patch adds support for 256KB pages on ppc44x-based boards.
For simplification of implementation with 256KB pages we still assume
2-level paging. As a side effect this leads to wasting extra memory space
reserved for PTE tables: only 1/4 of pages allocated for PTEs are
actually used. But this may be an acceptable trade-off to achieve the
high performance we have with big PAGE_SIZEs in some applications (e.g.
RAID).
Also with 256KB PAGE_SIZE we increase THREAD_SIZE up to 32KB to minimize
the risk of stack overflows in the cases of on-stack arrays, which size
depends on the page size (e.g. multipage BIOs, NTFS, etc.).
With 256KB PAGE_SIZE we need to decrease the PKMAP_ORDER at least down
to 9, otherwise all high memory (2 ^ 10 * PAGE_SIZE == 256MB) we'll be
occupied by PKMAP addresses leaving no place for vmalloc. We do not
separate PKMAP_ORDER for 256K from 16K/64K PAGE_SIZE here; actually that
value of 10 in support for 16K/64K had been selected rather intuitively.
Thus now for all cases of PAGE_SIZE on ppc44x (including the default, 4KB,
one) we have 512 pages for PKMAP.
Because ELF standard supports only page sizes up to 64K, then you should
use binutils later than 2.17.50.0.3 with '-zmax-page-size' set to 256K
for building applications, which are to be run with the 256KB-page sized
kernel. If using the older binutils, then you should patch them like follows:
--- binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c.orig
+++ binutils/bfd/elf32-ppc.c
-#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x10000
+#define ELF_MAXPAGESIZE 0x40000
One more restriction we currently have with 256KB page sizes is inability
to use shmem safely, so, for now, the 256KB is available only if you turn
the CONFIG_SHMEM option off (another variant is to use BROKEN).
Though, if you need shmem with 256KB pages, you can always remove the !SHMEM
dependency in 'config PPC_256K_PAGES', and use the workaround available here:

We currently have a few variants of fsl-booke processors (e500v1, e500v2,
e500mc, and e200). They all have minor differences that we had previously
been handling via ifdefs.
To move towards having this support the following changes have been made:
* PID1, PID2 only exist on e500v1 & e500v2 and should not be accessed on
e500mc or e200. We use MMUCFG[NPIDS] to determine which case we are
since we only touch PID1/2 in extremely early init code.
* Not all IVORs exist on all the processors so introduce cpu_setup
functions for each variant to setup the proper IVORs that are either
unique or exist but have some variations between the processors

This is some preliminary work to improve TLB management on SW loaded
TLB powerpc platforms. This introduce support for non-atomic PTE
operations in pgtable-ppc32.h and removes write back to the PTE from
the TLB miss handlers. In addition, the DSI interrupt code no longer
tries to fixup write permission, this is left to generic code, and
_PAGE_HWWRITE is gone.

The new e500mc core from Freescale is based on the e500v2 but with the
following changes:
* Supports only the Enhanced Debug Architecture (DSRR0/1, etc)
* Floating Point
* No SPE
* Supports lwsync
* Doorbell Exceptions
* Hypervisor
* Cache line size is now 64-bytes (e500v1/v2 have a 32-byte cache line)

On machines with more than one exception level any system register that
might be modified by the "normal" exception level needs to be saved and
restored on taking a higher level exception. We already are saving
and restoring ESR and DEAR.
For critical level add SRR0/1.
For debug level add CSRR0/1 and SRR0/1.
For machine check level add DSRR0/1, CSRR0/1, and SRR0/1.
On FSL Book-E parts we always save/restore the MAS registers for critical,
debug, and machine check level exceptions. On 44x we always save/restore
the MMUCR.
Additionally, we save and restore the ksp_limit since we have to adjust it
for each exception level.

* Cleanup the code a bit my allocating an INT_FRAME on our exception
stack there by make references go from GPR11-INT_FRAME_SIZE(r8) to
just GPR11(r8)
* simplify {lvl}_transfer_to_handler code by moving the copying of the
temp registers we use if we come from user space into the PROLOG
* If the exception came from kernel mode copy thread_info flags,
preempt, and task pointer from the process thread_info.

For the additonal exception levels (critical, debug, machine check) on
40x/book-e we were using "static" allocations of the stack in the
associated head.S.
Move to a runtime allocation to make the code a bit easier to read as
we mimic how we handle IRQ stacks. Its also a bit easier to setup the
stack with a "dummy" thread_info in C code.

The architecture allows for "Book-E" style debug interrupts to either go
to critial interrupts of their own debug interrupt level. To allow for
a dynamic kernel to support machines of either type we want to be able to
compile in the interrupt handling code for both exception levels.
Towards this goal we renamed the debug handling macros to specify the
interrupt level in their name (DEBUG_CRIT_EXCEPTION/DebugCrit and
DEBUG_DEBUG_EXCEPTION/DebugDebug).
Additionally, on the Freescale Book-e parts we expanded the exception
stacks to cover the maximum case of needing three exception stacks (normal,
machine check and debug).
There is some kernel text space optimization to be gained if a kernel is
configured for a specific Freescale implementation but we aren't handling
that now to allow for the single kernel image support.

This adds a cputable function pointer for the CPU-side machine
check handling. The semantic is still the same as the old one,
the one in ppc_md. overrides the one in cputable, though
ultimately we'll want to change that so the CPU gets first.
This removes CONFIG_440A which was a problem for multiplatform
kernels and instead fixes up the IVOR at runtime from a setup_cpu
function. The "A" version of the machine check also tweaks the
regs->trap value to differenciate the 2 versions at the C level.
