On POWER10 bit 12 in the PVR indicates if the core is SMT4 or SMT8.
Bit 12 is set for SMT4.

Without this patch, /proc/cpuinfo on a SMT4 DD1 POWER10 looks like
this:
  cpu             : POWER10, altivec supported
  revision        : 17.0 (pvr 0080 1100)

The replacement of &lt;asm/pgrable.h&gt; with &lt;linux/pgtable.h&gt; made the include
of the latter in the middle of asm includes.  Fix this up with the aid of
the below script and manual adjustments here and there.

The include/linux/pgtable.h is going to be the home of generic page table
manipulation functions.

Start with moving asm-generic/pgtable.h to include/linux/pgtable.h and
make the latter include asm/pgtable.h.

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value.  The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.

When kaslr is enabled, the kernel offset is different for every boot.
This brings some difficult to debug the kernel. Dump out the kernel
offset when panic so that we can easily debug the kernel.

This code is derived from x86/arm64 which has similar functionality.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "This is a bit late, partly due to me travelling, and partly due to a
  power outage knocking out some of my test systems *while* I was
  travelling.

   - Initial support for running on a system with an Ultravisor, which
     is software that runs below the hypervisor and protects guests
     against some attacks by the hypervisor.

   - Support for building the kernel to run as a "Secure Virtual
     Machine", ie. as a guest capable of running on a system with an
     Ultravisor.

   - Some changes to our DMA code on bare metal, to allow devices with
     medium sized DMA masks (&gt; 32 &amp;&amp; &lt; 59 bits) to use more than 2GB of
     DMA space.

   - Support for firmware assisted crash dumps on bare metal (powernv).

   - Two series fixing bugs in and refactoring our PCI EEH code.

   - A large series refactoring our exception entry code to use gas
     macros, both to make it more readable and also enable some future
     optimisations.

  As well as many cleanups and other minor features &amp; fixups.

<title>driver core: initialize a default DMA mask for platform device</title>

<content type='text'>
We still treat devices without a DMA mask as defaulting to 32-bits for
both mask, but a few releases ago we've started warning about such
cases, as they require special cases to work around this sloppyness.
Add a dma_mask field to struct platform_device so that we can initialize
the dma_mask pointer in struct device and initialize both masks to
32-bits by default, replacing similar functionality in m68k and
powerpc.  The arch_setup_pdev_archdata hooks is now unused and removed.

Note that the code looks a little odd with the various conditionals
because we have to support platform_device structures that are
statically allocated.
