240-ioremap-null-ptr-test.patch
Under highly unusual circumstances, a buggy driver will ask a null ptr
to be ioremapped, an operation that curently succeeds but leads to
later trouble. Instead, refuse to remap the null pointer.

asm-ppc64/imalloc.h is only included from files in arch/powerpc/mm.
We already have a header for mm local definitions,
arch/powerpc/mm/mmu_decl.h. Thus, this patch moves the contents of
imalloc.h into mmu_decl.h. The only exception are the definitions of
PHBS_IO_BASE, IMALLOC_BASE and IMALLOC_END. Those are moved into
pgtable.h, next to similar definitions of VMALLOC_START and
VMALLOC_SIZE.
Built for multiplatform 32bit and 64bit (ARCH=powerpc).

Early calls to __ioremap() will panic if the hash insertion fails. This
patch makes them return NULL instead. It happens with some pSeries users
who enabled CONFIG_BOOTX_TEXT. The later is getting an incorrect address
for the fame buffer and the hash insertion fails. With this patch, it
will display an error instead of crashing at boot.

Adds a new CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES which, when enabled, changes the kernel
base page size to 64K. The resulting kernel still boots on any
hardware. On current machines with 4K pages support only, the kernel
will maintain 16 "subpages" for each 64K page transparently.
Note that while real 64K capable HW has been tested, the current patch
will not enable it yet as such hardware is not released yet, and I'm
still verifying with the firmware architects the proper to get the
information from the newer hypervisors.

The ancient ppcdebug/PPCDBG mechanism is now only used in two places.
First, in the hash setup code, one of the bits allows the size of the
hash table to be reduced by a factor of 8 - which would be better
accomplished with a command line option for that purpose. The other
was a bunch of bus walking related messages in the iSeries code, which
would seem to be insufficient reason to keep the mechanism.
This patch removes the last traces of this mechanism.
Built and booted on iSeries and pSeries POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc).

This moves the remaining files in arch/ppc64/mm to arch/powerpc/mm,
and arranges that we use them when compiling with ARCH=ppc64.

This doesn't change any code, just renames things so we consistently
have foo_32.c and foo_64.c where we have separate 32- and 64-bit
versions.
