<content type='text'>
Just compiling pseries in the kernel causes it to override
memory_block_size_bytes() regardless of what is the runtime
platform.

This cleans up the implementation of that function, fixing
a bug or two while at it, so that it's harmless (and potentially
useful) for other platforms. Without this, bugs in that code
would trigger a WARN_ON() in drivers/base/memory.c when
booting some different platforms.

If/when we have another platform supporting memory hotplug we
might want to either move that out to a generic place or
make it a ppc_md. callback.

<title>powerpc/pmac: Don't register pmac PIC syscore ops when HW not present</title>

The Apple custom PIC only exist in some earlier machine models,
anything with an MPIC will crash on suspend if we register those
syscore ops unconditionally.

This is a regression caused by commit f5a592f7d74e ("PM / PowerPC: Use
struct syscore_ops instead of sysdevs for PM")

<title>powerpc/cell: Rename ipi functions to match current abstractions</title>

<id>d5a1c1937090d72c08c72e8abaa906b26459608e</id>
<content type='text'>
Rename functions and arguments to reflect current usage.  iic_cause_ipi
becomes iic_message_pass and iic_ipi_to_irq becomes iic_msg_to_irq,
and iic_request_ipi now takes a message (msg) instead of an ipi number.
Also mesg is renamed to msg.

Commit f1072939b6 (powerpc: Remove checks for MSG_ALL and
MSG_ALL_BUT_SELF) connected the smp_message_pass hook for cell to the
underlying iic_cause_IPI, a platform unique name.  Later 23d72bfd8f
(powerpc: Consolidate ipi message mux and demux) added a cause_ipi
hook to the smp_ops, also used in message passing, but for controllers
that can not send 4 unique messages and require multiplexing.  It is
even more confusing that the both take two arguments, but one is the
small message ordinal and the other is an opaque long data associated
with the cpu.

Since cell iic maps messages one to one to ipi irqs, rename the
function and argument to translate from ipi to message.  Also make it
clear that iic_request_ipi takes a message number as the argument
for which ipi to create and request.

No functionional change, just renames to avoid future confusion.

<title>powerpc/cell: Use common smp ipi actions</title>

<id>7ef71d753ea0286bfeb4251b9ba592716ebdd9e8</id>
<content type='text'>
The cell iic interrupt controller has enough software caused interrupts
to use a unique interrupt for each of the 4 messages powerpc uses.
This means each interrupt gets its own irq action/data combination.

Use the seperate, optimized, arch common ipi action functions
registered via the helper smp_request_message_ipi instead passing the
message as action data to a single action that then demultipexes to
the required acton via a switch statement.

smp_request_message_ipi will register the action as IRQF_PER_CPU
and IRQF_DISABLED, and WARN if the allocation fails for some reason,
so no need to print on that failure.  It will return positive if
the message will not be used by the kernel, in which case we can
free the virq.

In addition to elimiating inefficient code, this also corrects the
error that a kernel built with kexec but without a debugger would
not register the ipi for kdump to notify the other cpus of a crash.

This also restores the debugger action to be static to kernel/smp.c.

When using a property refering to the availibily of dynamic dma windows
call it ddw_avail not ddr_avail.

dupe_ddw_if_already_created does not dupilcate anything, it only finds

find_existing_ddw.  Also, it does not need the pci device node, so

Move the discovery of windows previously setup from when the pci driver
calls set_dma_mask to an arch_initcall.

When kexecing into a kernel with dynamic dma windows allocated, we need
to find the windows early so that memory hot remove will be able to
delete the tces mapping the to be removed memory and memory hotplug add
will map the new memory into the window.  We should not wait for the
driver to be loaded and the device to be probed.  The iommu init hooks
are before kmalloc is setup, so defer to arch_initcall.
