"Highlights include BMan device tree nodes, an MSI erratum workaround, a
couple minor performance improvements, config updates, and misc
fixes/cleanup."

By default we enable CONFIG_I2C_MUX and CONFIG_I2C_MUX_PCA954x,
which are needed on T2080QDS, T4240QDS, B4860QDS, etc.

After previous discussions regarding the subject [1][2], there's no clear
explanation or reason why the call was needed in the first place. The sensible
argument is some sort of synchronization between the CPU and the MPIC, which
hasn't been pointed out precisely and is no longer required (at least on BookE
platforms).
The benefit of this change is saving a MMIO trap per interrupt when running in a
KVM guest.

All the cache line size of the current book3e 64bit SoCs are 64 bytes.
So we should use this size to align the member of paca_struct.
This only change the paca_struct's members which are private to book3e
CPUs, and should not have any effect to book3s ones. With this, we save
192 bytes. Also change it to __aligned(size) since it is preferred over
__attribute__((aligned(size))).
Before:
/* size: 1920, cachelines: 30, members: 46 */
/* sum members: 1667, holes: 6, sum holes: 141 */
/* padding: 112 */
After:
/* size: 1728, cachelines: 27, members: 46 */
/* sum members: 1667, holes: 4, sum holes: 13 */

Currently, when a sensor value is read, the kernel calls OPAL, which in
turn builds a message for the FSP, and waits for a message back.
The new device tree for OPAL sensors [1] adds new sensors that can be
read synchronously (core temperatures for instance) and that don't need
to wait for a response.
This patch modifies the opal call to accept an OPAL_SUCCESS return value
and cover the case above.

We currently have a "special" syscall for switching endianness. This is
syscall number 0x1ebe, which is handled explicitly in the 64-bit syscall
exception entry.
That has a few problems, firstly the syscall number is outside of the
usual range, which confuses various tools. For example strace doesn't
recognise the syscall at all.
Secondly it's handled explicitly as a special case in the syscall
exception entry, which is complicated enough without it.
As a first step toward removing the special syscall, we need to add a
regular syscall that implements the same functionality.
The logic is simple, it simply toggles the MSR_LE bit in the userspace
MSR. This is the same as the special syscall, with the caveat that the
special syscall clobbers fewer registers.
This version clobbers r9-r12, XER, CTR, and CR0-1,5-7.

During suspend/migration operation we must wait for the VASI state reported
by the hypervisor to become Suspending prior to making the ibm,suspend-me
RTAS call. Calling routines to rtas_ibm_supend_me() pass a vasi_state variable
that exposes the VASI state to the caller. This is unnecessary as the caller
only really cares about the following three conditions; if there is an error
we should bailout, success indicating we have suspended and woken back up so
proceed to device tree update, or we are not suspendable yet so try calling
rtas_ibm_suspend_me again shortly.
This patch removes the extraneous vasi_state variable and simply uses the
return code to communicate how to proceed. We either succeed, fail, or get
-EAGAIN in which case we sleep for a second before trying to call
rtas_ibm_suspend_me again. The behaviour of ppc_rtas() remains the same,
but migrate_store() now returns the propogated error code on failure.
Previously -1 was returned from migrate_store() in the failure case which
equates to -EPERM and was clearly wrong.

This function had been previously added but was removed by commit

The /sys/kernel/mobility/migration interface was added all the way back
in 2.6.37. However, the drmgr userspace tool was never augmented to use
this interface to perfrom migrations. Instead it has continued using a
faux rtas call coupled with performing the device tree update processing
in userspace and communicating it back to the kernel via the ugly
/proc/ppc64/ofdt interface.
Up until 3.12 the device tree update code in the kernel was badly broken
and bit rotting. This code was fixed in 3.12 and is now utilized by the
kernel suspend code as of 3.15. The kernel is now better suited to
handle the post-mobility fixup of the device tree and drmgr should be
transitioned to using the sysfs migration interface.
This patch introduces the api_version sysfs file to /sys/kernel/mobility
as a means for drmgr to query the current implementation level of the
kernel migration code. This initial versioning indicates it is capable
of perfroming all current PAPR requirements for migration including the
post-mobility firmware activation and device tree update.

The power7_nap(), power7_sleep() and power7_winkle() functions are
called from pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self(), which expects them to return the
SRR1 value set by the hardware on wakeup, or 0 if no nap/sleep/winkle
occurred. However, in the case where an interrupt needs to be
replayed, the logic in power7_powersave_common (the common code for
power7_nap et al.) doesn't set r3 to 0 in this case. Instead what we
get as the return value is the selector for the type of power-saving
mode requested (1, 2 or 3). In fact this should not affect the
operation of pnv_smp_cpu_kill_self(), but it is better to get this
correct, so this adds an instruction to set r3 to 0 in this case.

This patch extends pstore, a generic interface to platform dependent
persistent storage, support for powernv platform to capture certain
useful information, during dying moments. Such support is already in
place for pseries platform. This patch re-uses most of that code.
It is a common practice to compile kernels with both CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES=y
and CONFIG_PPC_POWERNV=y. The code in nvram_init_oops_partition() routine
still works as intended, as the caller is platform specific code which
passes the appropriate value for "rtas_partition_exists" parameter.
In all other places, where CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES or CONFIG_PPC_POWERNV
flag is used in this patchset, it is to reduce the kernel size in cases
where this flag is not set and doesn't have any impact logic wise.

With minor checks, we can move most of the code for nvram
under pseries to a common place to be re-used by other
powerpc platforms like powernv. This patch moves such
common code to arch/powerpc/kernel/nvram_64.c file.

Raghu noticed an issue with excessive memory allocation on power with a
simple cgroup test, specifically, in mem_cgroup_css_alloc ->
for_each_node -> alloc_mem_cgroup_per_zone_info(), which ends up blowing
up the kmalloc-2048 slab (to the order of 200MB for 400 cgroup
directories).
The underlying issue is that NODES_SHIFT on power is 8 (256 NUMA nodes
possible), which defines node_possible_map, which in turn defines the
value of nr_node_ids in setup_nr_node_ids and the iteration of
for_each_node.
In practice, we never see a system with 256 NUMA nodes, and in fact, we
do not support node hotplug on power in the first place, so the nodes
that are online when we come up are the nodes that will be present for
the lifetime of this kernel. So let's, at least, drop the NUMA possible
map down to the online map at runtime. This is similar to what x86 does
in its initialization routines.
mem_cgroup_css_alloc should also be fixed to only iterate over
memory-populated nodes and handle hotplug, but that is a separate
change.

The 'arg' argument to copy_thread() is only ever used when forking a new

The current VPHN parsing logic has some flaws that this patch aims to fix:
1) when the value 0xffff is read, the value 0xffffffff gets added to the
the output list and its element count isn't incremented. This is wrong.
According to PAPR+ the domain identifiers are packed into a sequence
terminated by the "reserved value of all ones". This means that 0xffff
is a stream terminator.
2) the combination of byteswaps and casts make the code hardly readable.
Let's parse the stream one 16-bit field at a time instead.
3) it is assumed that the hypercall returns 12 32-bit values packed into
6 64-bit registers. According to PAPR+, the domain identifiers may be
streamed as 16-bit values. Let's increase the number of expected numbers
to 24.

We have set CONFIG_PPC_OF to always 'y' in commit 0a498d96a332
("powerpc: set CONFIG_PPC_OF=y always for ARCH=powerpc") nine years
ago. And the arch/ppc also has gone away for many years. The OF
functionality was also moved to a common place and be used by many
archs. So it does make no sense to keep such a option in the current
kernel. Just kill it.
