When we switched sparc from using 'int's to 'phandle's (which is a u32), we
neglected to do anything with the various checks for -1.  For those tests,

David S. Miller 595a251c07 sparc: Write to prom console using indirect buffer.
sparc64 systems have a restriction in that passing in buffer
addressses above 4GB to prom calls is not reliable.

We end up violating this when we do prom console writes, because we
use an on-stack buffer to translate '\n' into '\r\n'.

So instead, do this translation into an intermediate buffer, which is
in the kernel image and thus below 4GB, then pass that to the PROM
console write calls.

On the 32-bit side we don't have to deal with any of these issues, so
the new prom_console_write_buf() uses the existing prom_nbputchar()
implementation.  However we can now mark those routines static.

Since the 64-bit side completely uses new code we can delete the
putchar bits as they are now completely unused.

David Howells df9ee29270 Fix IRQ flag handling naming
Fix the IRQ flag handling naming.  In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
it maps:

	local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
	local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
	...

and under the other configuration, it maps:

	raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
	raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
	...

This is quite confusing.  There should be one set of names expected of the
arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
by users of this facility.

Change this to have the arch provide:

	flags = arch_local_save_flags()
	flags = arch_local_irq_save()
	arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
	arch_local_irq_disable()
	arch_local_irq_enable()
	arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	arch_irqs_disabled()
	arch_safe_halt()

Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:

	raw_local_save_flags(flags)
	raw_local_irq_save(flags)
	raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
	raw_local_irq_disable()
	raw_local_irq_enable()
	raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	raw_irqs_disabled()
	raw_safe_halt()

with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:

	local_save_flags(flags)
	local_irq_save(flags)
	local_irq_restore(flags)
	local_irq_disable()
	local_irq_enable()
	irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
	irqs_disabled()
	safe_halt()

with tracing included if enabled.

The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
having to be macros.

David S. Miller 25edd6946a sparc64: Get rid of indirect p1275 PROM call buffer.
This is based upon a report by Meelis Roos showing that it's possible
that we'll try to fetch a property that is 32K in size with some
devices.  With the current fixed 3K buffer we use for moving data in
and out of the firmware during PROM calls, that simply won't work.

In fact, it will scramble random kernel data during bootup.

The reasoning behind the temporary buffer is entirely historical.  It
used to be the case that we had problems referencing dynamic kernel
memory (including the stack) early in the boot process before we
explicitly told the firwmare to switch us over to the kernel trap
table.

So what we did was always give the firmware buffers that were locked
into the main kernel image.

But we no longer have problems like that, so get rid of all of this
indirect bounce buffering.

Besides fixing Meelis's bug, this also makes the kernel data about 3K
smaller.

It was also discovered during these conversions that the
implementation of prom_retain() was completely wrong, so that was
fixed here as well.  Currently that interface is not in use.

David S. Miller bd4352cadf sparc64: Fix bootup with mcount in some configs.
Functions invoked early when booting up a cpu can't use
tracing because mcount requires a valid 'current_thread_info()'
and TLB mappings to be setup.

The code path of sun4v_register_mondo_queues --> register_one_mondo
is one such case.  sun4v_register_mondo_queues already has the
necessary 'notrace' annotation, but register_one_mondo does not.

Normally register_one_mondo is inlined so the bug doesn't trigger,
but with some config/compiler combinations, it won't be so we
must properly mark it notrace.

While we're here, add 'notrace' annoations to prom_printf and
prom_halt so that early error handling won't have the same problem.

of total memory, the list of available memory (total minus what
firmware is using), and the list of firmware taken memory.

Only the available memory list is even used.

Therefore, kill those unused tables and make prom_meminfo() return
just the available memory list.

David S. Miller 667bc389c7 [SPARC]: Kill 'prom_palette'.
The idea of this thing is we could save/restore the firmware's
palette when breaking in and out of the firmware prompt.

Only one driver implemented this (atyfb) and it's value is
questionable.  If you're just debugging you don't really
care that the characters end up being purple or whatever.

And we can provide better debugging and firmware command
facilities with minimal in-kernel console I/O drivers.

David S. Miller c73fcc846c [SPARC]: Fix serial console device detection.
The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which
is wrong.

The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias
or similar to a full path name to the console device.

Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a
colon at the end of the path.  The option area is used to specify
which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a
device node drives multiple ports.  'a' is assumed if the option
specification is missing.

This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator.  The 'output-device'
property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this
is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'.  Instead we saw it
as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console.

The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve
the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too.

Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

The m68k port's sun3 asm/oplib.h had a stray reference too, so I
killed that off as well.
