Michael Ellerman 6b98f2bec5 powerpc/configs: Re-enable CONFIG_SCSI_DH
Commit 086b91d052 ("scsi_dh: integrate into the core SCSI code")
changed CONFIG_SCSI_DH from tristate to bool.

Our defconfigs have CONFIG_SCSI_DH=m, which the kconfig machinery warns
us is invalid, but instead of converting it to =y it leaves it unset.
This means we loose the CONFIG_SCSI_DH code and everything that depends
on it.

So convert the values in the defconfigs to =y.

Fixes: 086b91d052 ("scsi_dh: integrate into the core SCSI code")

Vasant Hegde d690740f22 powerpc/powernv: Enable LEDS support
Commit 84ad6e5c added LEDS support for PowerNV platform. Lets
update ppc64_defconfig to pick LEDS driver.

PowerNV LEDS driver looks for "/ibm,opal/leds" node in device
tree and loads if this node exists. Hence added it as 'm'.

Also note that powernv LEDS driver needs NEW_LEDS and LEDS_CLASS
as well. Hence added them to config file.

mpe: Also add them to pseries_defconfig, which is currently also used
for powernv systems.

Michael Ellerman bf4981a006 powerpc: Remove the celleb support
The celleb code has seen no actual development for ~7 years.

We (maintainers) have no access to test hardware, and it is highly
likely the code has bit-rotted.

As far as we're aware the hardware was never widely available, and is
certainly no longer available, and no one on the list has shown any
interest in it over the years.

So remove it. If anyone has one and cares please speak up.

Michael Ellerman a85cade676 powerpc: Update all configs using savedefconfig
It looks like it's ~4 years since we updated some of these, so do a bulk
update.

Verified that the before and after generated configs are exactly the
same.

Which begs the question why update them? The answer is that it can be
confusing when the stored defconfig drifts too far from the generated
result.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Here's a first pull request for powerpc updates for 3.18.

  The bulk of the additions are for the "cxl" driver, for IBM's Coherent
  Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI).  Most of it's in drivers/misc,
  which Greg & Arnd maintain, Greg said he was happy for us to take it
  through our tree.

  There's the usual minor cleanups and fixes, including a bit of noise
  in drivers from some of those.  A bunch of updates to our EEH code,
  which has been getting more testing.  Several nice speedups from
  Anton, including 20% in clear_page().

Michael Neuling b92a66a65c powerpc: Add denormalisation exception handling for POWER6/7
On POWER6 and POWER7 if the input operand to an instruction is a
denormalised single precision binary floating point value we can take
a denormalisation exception where it's expected that the hypervisor
(HV=1) will fix up the inputs before the instruction is run.

This adds code to handle this denormalisation exception for POWER6 and

It also add a CONFIG_PPC_DENORMALISATION option and sets it in
pseries/ppc64_defconfig.

This is useful on bare metal systems only.  Based on patch from Milton

Michael Neuling 40a5a4435f powerpc: Build-in e1000e for pseries & ppc64_defconfig
The e1000e device is becoming more common these days, so let's just
build it in for pseries & ppc64_defconfig.

Anton Blanchard b926a88a7b powerpc: Reduce differences between pseries and ppc64 defconfigs
The pseries and ppc64 defconfigs have drifted apart over the years. Reduce
some of the differences while still keeping the idea that the ppc64 defconfig
is cross platform but enables fewer features than pseries, eg NR_CPUS is
lower.

Also enable a number of common adapters as modules.

Hamish Guthrie c1596b75c2 ps3_gelic_wireless: Remove PS3 gelic legacy wpa support
The current PS3 gelic wireless driver has support for wireless
extensions. The original PS3 gelic wireless driver exposed a
dedicated API for a dedicated wpa_supplicant driver. This old
API could be enabled with CONFIG_GELIC_WIRELESS_OLD_PSK_INTERFACE,
however, as this is not being used by any distros, and it is being
removed from the driver and from wpa_supplicant.

Anton Blanchard 030bdc3fd0 powerpc/defconfigs: Set HZ=100 on pseries and ppc64 defconfigs
Now we have high res timers there is less of a reason for a high HZ value.
Furthermore I think there a few reasons we should reduce HZ to 100:

- Timer interrupt overhead. While this overhead is small, there are
  applications that are very sensitive to jitter (eg some HPC apps).

- Issues with the timer wheel code. When coming out of NO_HZ idle we work our
  way through the timer code one tick at a time.  If we have been idle a long
  time, this adds up - I sometimes see milliseconds of time spent in that
  loop.

  Long term we should fix the timer wheel algorithm, but for now if we reduce
  HZ then we reduce the amount of work the timer code has to do when coming
  out of idle.

Token what? Lets save some space in our powerpc kernels and remove token
ring support.
