105765f451 powerpc/smp: Don't expose per-cpu "cpu_state" array
Instead, keep it static, expose an accessor and use that from
the PowerMac code. Avoids easy namespace collisions and will
make it easier to consolidate with other implementations.

734796f123 powerpc/pmac/smp: Fix CPU hotplug crashes on some machines
On some machines that use i2c to synchronize the timebases (such
as PowerMac7,2/7,3 G5 machines), hotplug CPU would crash when
putting back a new CPU online due to the underlying i2c bus being
closed.

This uses the newly added bringup_done() callback to move the close
along with other housekeeping calls, and adds a CPU notifier to
re-open the i2c bus around subsequent hotplug operations

62cc67b9df powerpc/pmac/smp: Properly NAP offlined CPU on G5
The current code soft-disables, and then goes to NAP mode which
turns interrupts on. That means that if an interrupt occurs, we
will hit the masked interrupt code path which isn't what we want,
as it will return with EE off, which will either get us out of
NAP mode, or fail to enter it (according to spec).

Instead, let's just rely on the fact that it is safe to take
decrementer interrupts on an offline CPU and leave interrupts
enabled. We can also get rid of the special case in asm for
power4_cpu_offline_powersave() and just use power4_idle().

Use the generic code, just add the MPIC priority setting,

as 32-bit will have EE off all along, and 64-bit will be able
to deal with it.

fa3f82c8bb powerpc/smp: soft-replugged CPUs must go back to start_secondary
Various thing are torn down when a CPU is hot-unplugged. That CPU
is expected to go back to start_secondary when re-plugged to re
initialize everything, such as clock sources, maps, ...

Some implementations just return from cpu_die() callback
in the idle loop when the CPU is "re-plugged". This is not enough.

We fix it using a little asm trampoline which resets the stack
and calls back into start_secondary as if we were all fresh from
boot. The trampoline already existed on ppc64, but we add it for
ppc32

4f1fc48a73 powerpc/xics: Fix numberspace mismatch from irq_desc conversion
commit 79f26c268e (powerpc:
platforms/pseries irq_data conversion) pushed irq_desc down into many
functions, dererencing the descriptor irq field as late as possible.

But it incorrectly passed a linix virtural irq number to RTAS,
resulting in the interrupt not being disabled and possibly
other bad things, such as another interrupt being disabled and/or
a checkstop.

In addition this missed the point of xics_mask_unknown_vec and
the seperation of xics_mask_real_irq from xics_mask_irq.  When
xics_mask_unknown_vec is called it's because the hardware delivered an
irq source for which we have no linux irq allocated, and thefore we can
not have an irq_desc allocated.

Revert xics_mask_real_irq to its prior version, naming the argument
hwirq to highlight the difference.

964a29962c powerpc/pseries: Disable MSI using new interface if possible
On upcoming hardware, we have a PCI adapter with two functions, one of
which uses MSI and the other uses MSI-X. This adapter, when MSI is
disabled using the "old" firmware interface (RTAS_CHANGE_FN), still
signals an MSI-X interrupt and triggers an EEH. We are working with the
vendor to ensure that the hardware is not at fault, but if we use the
"new" interface (RTAS_CHANGE_MSI_FN) to disable MSI, we also
automatically disable MSI-X and the adapter does not appear to signal
any stray MSI-X interrupt.

f2f6dad6ca powerpc/iseries: Fix early init access to lppaca
The combination of commit

8154c5d22d and
93c22703ef

Broke boot on iSeries.

The problem is that iSeries very early boot code, which generates
the device-tree and runs before our normal early initializations
does need access the lppaca's very early, before the PACA array is
initialized, and in fact even before the boot PACA has been
initialized (it contains all 0's at this stage).

However, the first patch above makes that code use the new
llpaca_of(cpu) accessor, which itself is changed by the second patch to
use the PACA array.

We fix that by reverting iSeries to directly dereferencing the array. In
addition, we fix all iterators in the iSeries code to always skip CPU
whose number is above 63 which is the maximum size of that array and
the maximum number of supported CPUs on these machines.

Additionally, we make sure the boot_paca is properly initialized
in our early startup code.

a5cf4b08b6 powerpc/pseries/nvram: Capture oops/panic reports in ibm, oops-log partition
Create the lnx,oops-log NVRAM partition, and capture the end of the printk
buffer in it when there's an oops or panic.  If we can't create the
lnx,oops-log partition, capture the oops/panic report in ibm,rtas-log.
