commit c3aae14e5d468d18dbb5d7c0c8c7e2968cc14aad upstream.

Clang warns:

../arch/powerpc/boot/4xx.c:231:3: warning: misleading indentation;
statement is not part of the previous 'else' [-Wmisleading-indentation]
        val = SDRAM0_READ(DDR0_42);
        ^
../arch/powerpc/boot/4xx.c:227:2: note: previous statement is here
        else
        ^

This is because there is a space at the beginning of this line; remove
it so that the indentation is consistent according to the Linux kernel
coding style and clang no longer warns.

<title>libfdt: define INT32_MAX and UINT32_MAX in libfdt_env.h</title>

[ Upstream commit a8de1304b7df30e3a14f2a8b9709bb4ff31a0385 ]

The DTC v1.5.1 added references to (U)INT32_MAX.

This is no problem for user-space programs since &lt;stdint.h&gt; defines
(U)INT32_MAX along with (u)int32_t.

For the kernel space, libfdt_env.h needs to be adjusted before we
pull in the changes.

In the kernel, we usually use s/u32 instead of (u)int32_t for the
fixed-width types.

Accordingly, we already have S/U32_MAX for their max values.
So, we should not add (U)INT32_MAX to &lt;linux/limits.h&gt; any more.

Instead, add them to the in-kernel libfdt_env.h to compile the
latest libfdt.

[ Upstream commit 3cfb9ebe906b51f2942b1e251009bb251efd2ba6 ]

The bamboo dts has a bug: it uses a non-naturally aligned range
for PCI memory space. This isnt' supported by the code, thus
causing PCI to break on this system.

This is due to the fact that while the chip memory map has 1G
reserved for PCI memory, it's only 512M aligned. The code doesn't
know how to split that into 2 different PMMs and fails, so limit
the region to 512M.

<title>powerpc/boot: Request no dynamic linker for boot wrapper</title>

commit ff45000fcb56b5b0f1a14a865d3541746d838a0a upstream.

The boot wrapper performs its own relocations and does not require
PT_INTERP segment. However currently we don't tell the linker that.

Prior to binutils 2.28 that works OK. But since binutils commit
1a9ccd70f9a7 ("Fix the linker so that it will not silently generate ELF
binaries with invalid program headers. Fix readelf to report such
invalid binaries.") binutils tries to create a program header segment
due to PT_INTERP, and the link fails because there is no space for it:

  ld: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N
  ld: final link failed: Bad value

So tell the linker not to do that, by passing --no-dynamic-linker.

[ Upstream commit 5564597d51c8ff5b88d95c76255e18b13b760879 ]

Commit 6975a783d7b4 ("powerpc/boot: Allow building the zImage wrapper
as a relocatable ET_DYN", 2011-04-12) changed the procedure descriptor
at the start of crt0.S to have a hard-coded start address of 0x500000
rather than a reference to _zimage_start, presumably because having
a reference to a symbol introduced a relocation which is awkward to
handle in a position-independent executable.  Unfortunately, what is
at 0x500000 in the COFF image is not the first instruction, but the
procedure descriptor itself, that is, a word containing 0x500000,
which is not a valid instruction.  Hence, booting a COFF zImage
results in a "DEFAULT CATCH!, code=FFF00700" message from Open
Firmware.

This fixes the problem by (a) putting the procedure descriptor in the
data section and (b) adding a branch to _zimage_start as the first
instruction in the program.

[ Upstream commit ee9d21b3b3583712029a0db65a4b7c081d08d3b3 ]

When building with clang crt0's _zimage_start is not marked weak, which
breaks the build when linking the kernel image:

 $ objdump -t arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.o |grep _zimage_start$
 0000000000000058 g       .text  0000000000000000 _zimage_start

 ld: arch/powerpc/boot/wrapper.a(crt0.o): in function '_zimage_start':
 (.text+0x58): multiple definition of '_zimage_start';
 arch/powerpc/boot/pseries-head.o:(.text+0x0): first defined here

Clang requires the .weak directive to appear after the symbol is
declared. The binutils manual says:

 This directive sets the weak attribute on the comma separated list of
 symbol names. If the symbols do not already exist, they will be
 created.

So it appears this is different with clang. The only reference I could
see for this was an OpenBSD mailing list post[1].

Changing it to be after the declaration fixes building with Clang, and
still works with GCC.

 $ objdump -t arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.o |grep _zimage_start$
 0000000000000058  w      .text	0000000000000000 _zimage_start

[ Upstream commit a674c7d470bb47e82f4eb1fa944eadeac2f6bbaf ]

It is not implemented on the kmcoge4 hardware and if not disabled it
leads to error messages with the corenet32_smp_defconfig.
