Albert Herranz b8e8efaa86 powerpc: reserve fixmap entries for early debug
Add a set of entries to the fixmap table to allow usage of known
reserved virtual address space by early debug code.

The address space reserved is the top 128K of the 32-bit address
space. This allows, if required, the use of a BAT to do the mappings.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt f637a49e50 powerpc: Minor cleanups of kernel virt address space definitions
Make FIXADDR_TOP a compile time constant and cleanup a
couple of definitions relative to the layout of the kernel
address space on ppc32. We also print out that layout at
boot time for debugging purposes.

This is a pre-requisite for properly fixing non-coherent
DMA allocactions.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 8d1cf34e7a powerpc/mm: Tweak PTE bit combination definitions
This patch tweaks the way some PTE bit combinations are defined, in such a
way that the 32 and 64-bit variant become almost identical and that will
make it easier to bring in a new common pte-* file for the new variant
of the Book3-E support.

The combination of bits defining access to kernel pages are now clearly
separated from the combination used by userspace and the core VM. The
resulting generated code should remain identical unless I made a mistake.

Note: While at it, I removed a non-sensical statement related to CONFIG_KGDB
in ppc_mmu_32.c which could cause kernel mappings to be user accessible when
that option is enabled. Probably something that bitrot.

Stephen Rothwell b8b572e101 powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm
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.
