linux-next/arch/powerpc
Linus Torvalds 5375871d43 Merge branch 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc
Pull powerpc merge from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window.  It is going to be a
  bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of
  arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got
  rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to
  maintain and that nobody really used anymore.

  Here are some of the highlights:

   - Legacy iSeries is gone.  Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits
     and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but
     they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks
     hopefully.

   - The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the
     previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"...  it's a rewrite of a
     mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the
     new implementation hopefully being much more reliable.  Thanks
     Mahesh Salgaonkar.

   - The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling & recovery) got a big
     spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a
     new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare.

     The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is
     there.  Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is
     not very nice and which Grant objects to.  I will have a patch soon
     that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully
     before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully
     getting rid of the need for that pointer completely).  Thanks Gavin
     Shan.

   - I dug into our exception & interrupt handling code to improve the
     way we do lazy interrupt handling (and make it work properly with
     "edge" triggered interrupt sources), and while at it found & fixed
     a wagon of issues in those areas, including adding support for page
     fault retry & fatal signals on page faults.

   - Your usual random batch of small fixes & updates, including a bunch
     of new embedded boards, both Freescale and APM based ones, etc..."

I fixed up some conflicts with the generalized irq-domain changes from
Grant Likely, hopefully correctly.
