This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32
bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds
some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with
support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same
clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency.
Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits
returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever
add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't
have to change.
I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and
ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a
64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was
tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions.

This patch merges platform codes. systemcfg->platform is no longer used,
systemcfg use in general is deprecated as much as possible (and renamed
_systemcfg before it gets completely moved elsewhere in a future patch),
_machine is now used on ppc64 along as ppc32. Platform codes aren't gone
yet but we are getting a step closer. A bunch of asm code in head[_64].S
is also turned into C code.

- Re-add a hunk lost during merge: ppc64 is missing the hunk that disables
preempt on the secondary CPUs before they call cpu_idle().
- ppc's cpu_idle() had the need_resched() test wrong.

Even though we can enable and disable xmon at runtime now, there are a
few places in the merge tree that call xmon and xmon_printf directly.
In the case below we call die() which will call xmon if it is enabled.
Also remove an unnecessary include of xmon.h in smp.c.

This also moves setup_cpu_maps to setup-common.c (calling it
smp_setup_cpu_maps) and uses it on both 32-bit and 64-bit.

This moves smp_space_timers from arch/ppc64/kernel/smp.c to
arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c and makes it initialize last_jiffy[]
instead of paca[].next_jiffy_update_tb, since last_jiffy[] is
now what the time code uses. It also declares smp_space_timers
in include/asm-powerpc/time.h and gets rid of an ifdef in
div128_by_32.

Having it here rather than in arch/ppc64/kernel/smp.c means that
we can use it on 32-bit SMP systems easily with ARCH=powerpc.

Complete moving arch/ppc64/kernel/mpic.h,
include/asm-ppc/reg.h, include/asm-ppc64/kdebug.h
and include/asm-ppc64/kprobes.h
Add arch/powerpc/platforms/Makefile and use it from
arch/powerpc/Makefile
Introduce OLDARCH temporarily so we can point back to
the originating architecture

PPC64 machines before Power4 need a segment table page allocated for each
CPU. Currently these are allocated statically in a big array in head.S for
all CPUs. The segment tables need to be in the first segment (so
do_stab_bolted doesn't take a recursive fault on the stab itself), but
other than that there are no constraints which require the stabs for the
secondary CPUs to be statically allocated.
This patch allocates segment tables dynamically during boot, using
lmb_alloc() to ensure they are within the first 256M segment. This reduces
the kernel image size by 192k...
Tested on RS64 iSeries, POWER3 pSeries, and POWER5.

Add support for the integrated interrupt controller on BPA
CPUs. There is one of those for each SMT thread.
The mapping of interrupt numbers to HW interrupt sources
is described in arch/ppc64/kernel/bpa_iic.h.
This version hardcodes the 'Spider' chip as the secondary
interrupt controller. That is not really generic for the
architecture, but at the moment it is the only secondary
PIC that exists.
A little more work will be needed on this as soon as
we have boards with multiple external interrupt controllers.

Now that we have HZ=1000 there is much less of a need for decr_overclock.
Remove it.
Leave spread_lpevents but move it into iSeries_setup.c. We should look at
making event spreading the default some day.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
