Paul Mackerras 6316222ea0 powerpc: Introduce toreal/fromreal assembly macros
On 32-bit platforms, these convert from kernel virtual addresses
to real (physical addresses), like tophys/tovirt but they use
the same register for the source and destination.  On 64-bit
platforms, they do nothing because the hardware ignores the top
two bits of the address in real mode.

These new macros are used in fpu.S now.

David Gibson 25c8a78b1e [PATCH] powerpc: Fix handling of fpscr on 64-bit
The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y.  FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.

The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU.  However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit.  This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.

While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S.  The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.

Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.

Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
longer do.

Paul Mackerras b3b8dc6c07 powerpc: Use reg.h instead of processor.h when we just want reg names
Now that the register names and bit definitions are all in reg.h,
use that instead of processor.h in assembly code in a few places.

Paul Mackerras b85a046af3 powerpc: Define 32/64 bit asm macros and use them in fpu.S
These macros help in writing assembly code that works for both ppc32
and ppc64.  With this we now have a common fpu.S.  This takes out
load_up_fpu from head_64.S.

Paul Mackerras 14cf11af6c powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc.
This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
of Kconfig files.  It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.  This is enough
to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.

For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel.  This makes some minor changes
to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.

The boot directory is still not merged.  That's going to be interesting.
