With this, new system calls only have to be wired up in one place
for ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc, rather than 2.

When I removed the powermac support from arch/ppc/kernel/pci.c,
I overlooked the fact that that file is used in 32-bit ARCH=powerpc
builds.  To prevent problems in future, restore the original version
of that file as arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_32.c, and use that.

Commit 5388fb1025443ec223ba556b10efc4c5f83f8682 made signal_32.c
use discard_lazy_cpu_state, which broke ARCH=ppc because that
uses the common signal_32.c but has its own process.c.  Make ARCH=ppc
use the common process.c to fix this and to reduce the amount
of duplicated code.

<title>[PATCH] sanitize building of fs/compat_ioctl.c</title>

<content type='text'>
Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can
build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft.  We need a
special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done.
This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures.  Also remove some
superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c

Tested on ppc64.

[1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct
    for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd
    kick in for all netdevice users.  We can introduce a proper handler
    in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to
    struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't
    compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this
    patchset.

<title>powerpc: Introduce a new config symbol to control 16550 early debug code</title>

<id>13b8a272297b29870d5bf5f8db7a381dd9e82382</id>
<content type='text'>
The previous change by Kumar Gala in this area led to legacy_serial.c
and udbg_16550.c being built as modules when CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=m.
Fix this by introducing a new symbol, CONFIG_PPC_UDBG_16550, to
control whether these files get built, and arrange for it to be selected
for those platforms that need it.

The CONFIG_PPC_OF symbol is used to mean that the firmware device tree
access functions are available.  Since we always have a device tree
with ARCH=powerpc, make CONFIG_PPC_OF always Y for ARCH=powerpc.

This fixes some compile errors reported by Kumar Gala, but in a
different way to his patch.  This also makes prom_parse.o be compiled
only if CONFIG_PPC_OF so that non-OF ARCH=ppc platforms will compile.
