3c726f8dee [PATCH] ppc64: support 64k pages
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.

426c1a11a6 powerpc: move iSeries/iSeries_pci.h to platforms/iseries
The only real user of this file outside platforms/iseries was
drivers/net/iseries_veth.c but all it wanted was ISERIES_HV_ADDR()
so we move that to abs_addr.h (and lowercase it).

5629d41d5c powerpc: Bring in some changes made to arch/ppc and include/asm-ppc64
Recent commits upstream have changed files which are currently
duplicated in arch/powerpc and include/asm-powerpc.  This updates
them with the corresponding changes.

9b6b563c0d powerpc: Merge in the ppc64 version of the prom code.
This brings in the ppc64 version of prom_init.c, prom.c and btext.c
and makes them work for ppc32.  This also brings in the new calling
convention, where the first entry to the kernel (with r5 != 0) goes
to the prom_init code, which then restarts from the beginning (with
r5 == 0) after it has done its stuff.

For now this also brings in the ppc32 version of setup.c.  It also
merges lmb.h.
