c75df6f96c powerpc: Fix usage of register macros getting ready for %r0 change
Anything that uses a constructed instruction (ie. from ppc-opcode.h),
need to use the new R0 macro, as %r0 is not going to work.

Also convert usages of macros where we are just determining an offset
(usually for a load/store), like:
	std	r14,STK_REG(r14)(r1)
Can't use STK_REG(r14) as %r14 doesn't work in the STK_REG macro since
it's just calculating an offset.

fdd374b62c powerpc: Optimise 64bit csum_partial_copy_generic and add csum_and_copy_from_user
We use the same core loop as the new csum_partial, adding in the
stores and exception handling code. To keep things simple we do all the
exception fixup in csum_and_copy_from_user. This wrapper function is
modelled on the generic checksum code and is careful to always calculate
a complete checksum even if we only copied part of the data to userspace.

To test this I forced checksumming on over loopback and ran socklib (a
simple TCP benchmark). On a POWER6 575 throughput improved by 19% with
this patch. If I forced both the sender and receiver onto the same cpu
(with the hope of shifting the benchmark from being cache bandwidth limited
to cpu limited), adding this patch improved performance by 55%

9b83ecb0a3 powerpc: Optimise 64bit csum_partial
The main loop of csum_partial runs very slowly on recent POWER CPUs. After some
analysis on both POWER6 and POWER7 I came up with routine below. First we get
the source aligned to a double word, ignoring any odd alignment to keep things
simple. Then we do 64 bytes at a time, with an entry and exit limb of a further
64 bytes. On both POWER6 and POWER7 this should be as fast as we can go since
we are limited by the latency of the adde instructions.

To test this I forced checksumming on over loopback and ran socklib (a
simple TCP benchmark). On a POWER6 575 throughput improved by 11% with
this patch.

70d64ceaa1 powerpc: Rename files to have consistent _32/_64 suffixes
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.
