The page size encoding passed to tlbie is incorrect for new-style large pages. This fixes it. This doesn't affect anything on older machines because mmu_psize_defs[psize].penc (the page size encoding) is 0 for 4k and 16M pages (the two are distinguished by a separate "is a large page" bit).

The IBM Cell blade firmware might confuse the kernel to think it's a pSeries machine. This fixes it for now. With a bit of luck, the firmware will be updated to avoid that in the future but currently that patch is needed.

The code in prom_init.c calling the firmware ibm,client-architecture-support method on pSeries has a bug where it fails to properly pass the instance handle of the firmware object when trying to call a method. Result ranges from the call doing nothing to the firmware crashing. (Found by Segher, thanks !)

This fixes a bug found by Dave Jones that means that it is possible for userspace to provoke a machine check on 32-bit kernels. This also fixes a couple of other places where I found similar problems by inspection. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Prevent calling of some platform functions on the clock chips of the eMac as it seems to cause it to lockup at boot. For now, add a quirk to prevent that from happening. Later, I might find out what's wrong and fix it but that doesn't seem to be important as the machine appear to work fine without running those. It's possible that Darwin doesn't run them.

* 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulus/powerpc: [PATCH] powerpc: fix RTC/NVRAM accesses on Maple [PATCH] ppc32 CPM_UART: various fixes for pq2 uart users [PATCH] powerpc: linuxppc64.org no more
For a very long time, echoing 'standby' or 'mem' into /sys/power/state has killed the machine on powerpc. This patch fixes that. This patch adds the .valid callback to pm_ops on PowerMac so that only the suspend to disk state can be entered. Note that just returning 0 would suffice since the upper layers don't pass PM_SUSPEND_DISK down, but we handle it there regardless just in case that changes.

Due to a firmware device tree bug, RTC and NVRAM accesses (including halt/reboot) on Maple have been broken since January, when an untested build fix went in. This code patches the device tree in Linux.
