replaced declaration of EA from u32 to unsigned long - this beast is
used only to cast it to (userland) pointer and proper integer type for
that is unsigned long.

* ->io_base_virt in struct pci_controller is iomem pointer. Marked as such.
Most of the places that used it are already annotated to expect iomem.
* places that did gratitious (and wrong) casts a-la
isa_io_base = (unsigned long)ioremap(...);
hose->io_base_virt = (void *)isa_io_base;
turned into
hose->io_base_virt = ioremap(...);
isa_io_base = (unsigned long)hose->io_base_virt;
* pci_bus_io_base() annotated as returning iomem pointer.

make defconfig give the following error on ppc (gcc-4):
arch/ppc/kernel/time.c:92: error: static declaration of ‘time_offset’
follows non-static declaration
include/linux/timex.h:236: error: previous declaration of ‘time_offset’
was here
The following patch solves it (time_offset is declared in timer.c).

The following problem was found by Giovambattista Pulcini
<gpulcini@swintel.it>, who also provided a partial patch, and this has been
verified by our time guru Gabriel Paubert <paubert@iram.es>.
The problem is that in do_settimeofday() we always set time_state to
TIME_ERROR and except on two platforms, never re-set it. This meant that
ntp_gettime() and ntp_adjtime() always returned TIME_ERROR, incorrectly.
Based on Gabriel's analysis, time_state is used for leap-second processing,
and ppc shouldn't be mucking with it.

To add support for 36-bit physical addressing on e500 the following changes
have been made. The changes are generalized to support any physical address
size larger than 32-bits:
* Allow FSL Book-E parts to use a 64-bit PTE, it is 44-bits of pfn, 20-bits
of flags.
* Introduced new CPU feature (CPU_FTR_BIG_PHYS) to allow runtime handling of
updating hardware register (SPRN_MAS7) which holds the upper 32-bits of
physical address that will be written into the TLB. This is useful since
not all e500 cores support 36-bit physical addressing.
* Currently have a pass through implementation of fixup_bigphys_addr
* Moved _PAGE_DIRTY in the 64-bit PTE case to free room for three additional
storage attributes that may exist in future FSL Book-E cores and updated
fault handler to copy these bits into the hardware TLBs.

On ppc, we emulate instructions that cause alignment exceptions. If we are
single-stepping an instruction and it causes an alignment exception, we
will currently do the next instruction as well before taking the
single-step exception. This patch fixes that, so we take the single-step
exception after emulating the instruction.

If we should happen to get an altivec assist exception while executing in
the kernel, we will currently try to handle it and fail, and end up oopsing
with (apparently) a segfault. (An altivec assist exception occurs for
floating-point altivec instructions with denormalized inputs or outputs if
the altivec unit is in java mode.)
This patch checks explicitly if we are in user mode and prints a useful
message if not.

The code that went into arch/ppc/kernel/signal.c recently to handle process
freezing seems to contain a dubious assumption: that a process that calls
do_signal when PF_FREEZE is set will have entered the kernel because of a
system call. This patch removes that assumption.

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!
