note_scsi_host() has been an empty function since
commit 6ee0d9f744d4 ("[POWERPC] Remove unused old code
from powermac setup code").

Remove it.

This is the end of the work started with commit 76222808fc25 ("powerpc:
Move C prototypes out of asm-prototypes.h")

Now that asm/machdep.h doesn't include asm/setup.h anymore, there are
no conflicts anymore with the function prom_init() defined in
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/bios/shadowrom.o

So we can move it to asm/setup.h

We originally added asm-prototypes.h in commit 42f5b4cacd78 ("powerpc:
Introduce asm-prototypes.h"). It's purpose was for prototypes of C
functions that are only called from asm, in order to fix sparse
warnings about missing prototypes.

A few months later Nick added a different use case in
commit 4efca4ed05cb ("kbuild: modversions for EXPORT_SYMBOL() for asm")
for C prototypes for exported asm functions. This is basically the
inverse of our original usage.

Since then we've added various prototypes to asm-prototypes.h for both
reasons, meaning we now need to unstitch it all.

Dispatch prototypes of C functions into relevant headers and keep
only the prototypes for functions defined in assembly.

For the time being, leave prom_init() there because moving it
into asm/prom.h or asm/setup.h conflicts with
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/bios/shadowrom.o
This will be fixed later by untaggling asm/pci.h and asm/prom.h
or by renaming the function in shadowrom.c

Use KVM_CAP_PPC_AIL_MODE_3 to advertise the capability to set the AIL
resource mode to 3 with the H_SET_MODE hypercall. This capability
differs between processor types and KVM types (PR, HV, Nested HV), and
affects guest-visible behaviour.

QEMU will implement a cap-ail-mode-3 to control this behaviour[1], and
use the KVM CAP if available to determine KVM support[2].

initmem is about to be released and is redundant with init_mem_is_free.

deserving of an `__init` macro attribute. These functions are only

This reverts commit 8b8a8f0ab3f5519e45c526f826a655817486c5bb.

As reported[1] by Sachin this causes problems with ftrace, and it also
causes the code patching selftests to fail as reported[2] by Stephen.

So revert it for now.
