Add a new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD, to be added
to the 64bit powerpc chips that can do unaligned load double and
store double without any performance hit.
This is added to Power6 and Cell and will be used in the next commit
to disable the code that gets the destination address aligned on
those CPUs where doing that doesn't improve performance.

Add a new CPU feature bit, CPU_FTR_CP_USE_DCBTZ, to be added to the
64bit powerpc chips that benefit from having dcbt and dcbz
instructions used in their memory copy routines.
This will be used in a subsequent patch that updates copy_4K_page().
The new bit is added to Cell, PPC970 and Power4 because they show
better performance with the new copy_4K_page() when dcbt and dcbz
instructions are used.

The file arch/powerpc/kernel/sysfs.c is currently only compiled for
64-bit kernels. It contain code to register CPU sysdevs in sysfs and
add various properties such as cache topology and raw access by root
to performance monitor counters (PMCs). A lot of that can be re-used
as is on 32-bits.
This makes the file be built for both, with appropriate ifdef'ing
for the few bits that are really 64-bit specific, and adds some
support for the raw PMCs for 75x and 74xx processors.

from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a
mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm
Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
