The PROM library function prom_meminit() builds a table,
prom_phys_avail[], just so that probe_memory() in
arch/sparc/mm/fault.c can copy it into sp_banks[].

Just have prom_meminit() fill in the sp_banks[] array directly, and
remove duplicated sort() function.

The idea of this thing is we could save/restore the firmware's
palette when breaking in and out of the firmware prompt.

Only one driver implemented this (atyfb) and it's value is
questionable.  If you're just debugging you don't really
care that the characters end up being purple or whatever.

And we can provide better debugging and firmware command
facilities with minimal in-kernel console I/O drivers.

<title>[SPARC]: Fix serial console device detection.</title>

The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which
is wrong.

The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias
or similar to a full path name to the console device.

Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a
colon at the end of the path.  The option area is used to specify
which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a
device node drives multiple ports.  'a' is assumed if the option
specification is missing.

This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator.  The 'output-device'
property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this
is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'.  Instead we saw it
as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console.

The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve
the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too.

Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

<title>move die notifier handling to common code</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code.  Previous
various architectures had exactly the same code for it.  Note that the new
code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to
the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka
sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place)

arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to
arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's
declared and used at.  avr32 used to pass slightly less information through
this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.
