Convert arch/powerpc/ over to long long based u64:

 -#ifdef __powerpc64__
 -# include &lt;asm-generic/int-l64.h&gt;
 -#else
 -# include &lt;asm-generic/int-ll64.h&gt;
 -#endif
 +#include &lt;asm-generic/int-ll64.h&gt;

This will avoid reoccuring spurious warnings in core kernel code that
comes when people test on their own hardware. (i.e. x86 in ~98% of the
cases) This is what x86 uses and it generally helps keep 64-bit code
32-bit clean too.

[Adjusted to not impact user mode (from paulus) - sfr]

Impact: change existing irq_chip API

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?

In the CONFIG_SMP case the irq_choose_cpu() code was returning back
a logical cpu id not the physical id.  We were writing that directly
into the HW register.

We need to be calling get_hard_smp_processor_id() so irq_choose_cpu()
always returns a physical cpu id.

<title>powerpc/mpic: Don't reset affinity for secondary MPIC on boot</title>

<content type='text'>
Kexec/kdump currently fails on the IBM QS2x blades when the kexec happens
on a CPU other than the initial boot CPU.  It turns out that this is the
result of mpic_init trying to set affinity of each interrupt vector to the
current boot CPU.

As far as I can tell,  the same problem is likely to exist on any
secondary MPIC, because they have to deliver interrupts to the first
output all the time. There are two potential solutions for this: either
not set up affinity at all for secondary MPICs, or assume that a single
CPU output is connected to the upstream interrupt controller and hardcode
affinity to that per architecture.

This patch implements the second approach, defaulting to the first output.
Currently, all known secondary MPICs are routed to their upstream port
using the first destination, so we hardcode that.

MPIC has 4 ipis, so it can use the new smp_request_message_ipi to
reduce pathlength when receiving an ipi.

This has the side effect of using the common ipi names, and also
continuing to try request the remaining messages when one fails.

<title>powerpc/mpic: Fix regression caused by change of default IRQ affinity</title>

The Freescale implementation of MPIC only allows a single CPU destination
for non-IPI interrupts.  We add a flag to the mpic_init to distinquish
these variants of MPIC.  We pull in the irq_choose_cpu from sparc64 to
select a single CPU as the destination of the interrupt.

This is to deal with the fact that the default smp affinity was
changed by commit 18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 ("genirq:
Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)") to be all CPUs.

This converts ppc to use the new helpers for smp_call_function() and
friends, and adds support for smp_call_function_single().

ppc loses the timeout functionality of smp_call_function_mask() with
this change, as the generic code does not provide that.
