4e8b0cf46b powerpc/pseries: Add support for dynamic dma windows
If firmware allows us to map all of a partition's memory for DMA on a
particular bridge, create a 1:1 mapping of that memory. Add hooks for
dealing with hotplug events. Dynamic DMA windows can use larger than the
default page size, and we use the largest one possible.

5de1669910 powerpc/numa: Only use active VPHN count fields
VPHN supports up to 8 distance fields but the number of entries in
ibm,associativity-reference-points signifies how many are in use.
Don't look at all the VPHN counts, only distance_ref_points_depth

Since we already cap our distance metrics at MAX_DISTANCE_REF_POINTS,
use that to size the VPHN arrays and add a BUILD_BUG_ON to avoid it growing
larger than the VPHN maximum of 8.

1f1936ff3f powerpc: Fix some 6xx/7xxx CPU setup functions
Some of those functions try to adjust the CPU features, for example
to remove NAP support on some revisions. However, they seem to use
r5 as an index into the CPU table entry, which might have been right
a long time ago but no longer is. r4 is the right register to use.

This probably caused some off behaviours on some PowerMac variants
using 750cx or 7455 processor revisions.

af9eef3c7b powerpc: Pass the right cpu_spec to ->setup_cpu() on 64-bit
When calling setup_cpu() on 64-bit, we pass a pointer to the
cputable entry we have found. This used to be fine when cur_cpu_spec
was a pointer to that entry, but nowadays, we copy the entry into
a separate variable, and we do so before we call the setup_cpu()
callback. That means that any attempt by that callback at patching
the CPU table entry (to adjust CPU features for example) will patch
the wrong table.

fbe754ca3a powerpc: machine_check_generic is wrong on 64bit
Decoding machine checks is CPU specific and so machine_check_generic doesn't
do the right thing on 64bit chips. Luckily we never call into this code
because we call ppc_md.machine_check_exception instead if available.

Since we check cur_cpu_spec->machine_check before calling it, we may as
well remove machine_check_generic from 64bit archs.

d368514c30 powerpc: Fix corruption when grabbing FWNMI data
The FWNMI code uses a global buffer without any locks to read the RTAS error
information. If two CPUs take a machine check at once then we will corrupt
this buffer.

Since most FWNMI rtas messages are not of the extended type, we can create a
64bit percpu buffer and use it where possible. If we do receive an extended
RTAS log then we fall back to the old behaviour of using the global buffer.

- Don't check all the RTAS error log fields when receiving a synchronous

  in during a machine check and instead send a follow up error log with
  the detailed information. If we see a synchronous machine check, and we

3f9793e6b6 powerpc: Never halt RTAS error logging after receiving an unrecoverable machine check
Newer versions of the System p firwmare send a partial RTAS error log in the
machine check handler with a more detailed response appearing sometime later
via check event.

This means at machine check time we do not have enough information to
ascertain exactly what went on. Furthermore, I have found the RTAS error
logs in the machine check handler contain no useful information, so halting on
them makes little sense. If we want to halt it would make more sense to do
it following the error log received sometime later via check event.

In light of this, never halt the error log in the pseries machine
check handler.
