<title>powerpc/debug: Add missing warn flag to WARN_ON's non-builtin path</title>

When trapped on WARN_ON(), report_bug() is expected to return
BUG_TRAP_TYPE_WARN so the caller will increment NIP by 4 and continue.
The __builtin_constant_p() path of the PPC's WARN_ON()
calls (indirectly) __WARN_FLAGS() which has BUGFLAG_WARNING set,
however the other branch does not which makes report_bug() report a
bug rather than a warning.

<title>debug: Add _ONCE() logic to report_bug()</title>

Josh suggested moving the _ONCE logic inside the trap handler, using a
bit in the bug_entry::flags field, avoiding the need for the extra
variable.

Sadly this only works for WARN_ON_ONCE(), since the others have
printk() statements prior to triggering the trap.

Still, this saves a fair amount of text and some data:

  text         data       filename
  10682460     4530992    defconfig-build/vmlinux.orig
  10665111     4530096    defconfig-build/vmlinux.patched

<title>panic: Allow warnings to set different taint flags</title>

WARN() is used in some places to report firmware or hardware bugs that
are then worked-around.  These bugs do not affect the stability of the
kernel and should not set the flag for TAINT_WARN.  To allow for this,
add WARN_TAINT() and WARN_TAINT_ONCE() macros that take a taint number
as argument.

Architectures that implement warnings using trap instructions instead
of calls to warn_slowpath_*() now implement __WARN_TAINT(taint)
instead of __WARN().

Instead of not defining it at all, this defines the macro as
being empty, thus avoiding ifdef's in call sites when CONFIG_BUG
is not set.

Also removes an extra whitespace in the existing definition.

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 &lt;asm-powepc/...&gt; was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
