David Gibson e58c3495e6 [PATCH] powerpc: Cleanup LOADADDR etc. asm macros
This patch consolidates the variety of macros used for loading 32 or
64-bit constants in assembler (LOADADDR, LOADBASE, SET_REG_TO_*).  The
idea is to make the set of macros consistent across 32 and 64 bit and
to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given
situation.  The new macros and their semantics are described in the
comments in ppc_asm.h.

In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using
immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC.  Likewise we cleanup a
couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with
asm instructions to use assemble-time arithmetic or the toreal() macro
instead.
