Various thing are torn down when a CPU is hot-unplugged. That CPU
is expected to go back to start_secondary when re-plugged to re
initialize everything, such as clock sources, maps, ...
Some implementations just return from cpu_die() callback
in the idle loop when the CPU is "re-plugged". This is not enough.
We fix it using a little asm trampoline which resets the stack
and calls back into start_secondary as if we were all fresh from
boot. The trampoline already existed on ppc64, but we add it for
ppc32

To try to avoid future confusion, rename irq to hwirq when it refers
to a xics domain number instead of a linux irq number.

commit 79f26c268ebad29bd75d078cfc09d3d82b30ccbd (powerpc:
platforms/pseries irq_data conversion) pushed irq_desc down into many
functions, dererencing the descriptor irq field as late as possible.
But it incorrectly passed a linix virtural irq number to RTAS,
resulting in the interrupt not being disabled and possibly
other bad things, such as another interrupt being disabled and/or
a checkstop.
In addition this missed the point of xics_mask_unknown_vec and
the seperation of xics_mask_real_irq from xics_mask_irq. When
xics_mask_unknown_vec is called it's because the hardware delivered an
irq source for which we have no linux irq allocated, and thefore we can
not have an irq_desc allocated.
Revert xics_mask_real_irq to its prior version, naming the argument
hwirq to highlight the difference.

On upcoming hardware, we have a PCI adapter with two functions, one of
which uses MSI and the other uses MSI-X. This adapter, when MSI is
disabled using the "old" firmware interface (RTAS_CHANGE_FN), still
signals an MSI-X interrupt and triggers an EEH. We are working with the
vendor to ensure that the hardware is not at fault, but if we use the
"new" interface (RTAS_CHANGE_MSI_FN) to disable MSI, we also
automatically disable MSI-X and the adapter does not appear to signal
any stray MSI-X interrupt.

Currently, ppc32 uses sysdata for the pci_controller pointer, and
ppc64 uses it to hold the device_node pointer. This patch moves the
of_node pointer into (struct pci_bus*)->dev.of_node and
(struct pci_dev*)->dev.of_node so that sysdata can be converted to always
use the pci_controller pointer instead. It also fixes up the
allocating of pci devices so that the of_node pointer gets assigned
consistently and increments the ref count.

The FWNMI code uses a global buffer without any locks to read the RTAS error
information. If two CPUs take a machine check at once then we will corrupt
this buffer.
Since most FWNMI rtas messages are not of the extended type, we can create a
64bit percpu buffer and use it where possible. If we do receive an extended
RTAS log then we fall back to the old behaviour of using the global buffer.

Rework pseries machine check handler:
- If MSR_RI isn't set, we cannot recover even if the machine check was fully
recovered
- Rename nonfatal to recovered
- Handle RTAS_DISP_LIMITED_RECOVERY
- Use BUS_MCEERR_AR instead of BUS_ADRERR
- Don't check all the RTAS error log fields when receiving a synchronous
machine check. Recent versions of the pseries firmware do not fill them
in during a machine check and instead send a follow up error log with
the detailed information. If we see a synchronous machine check, and we
came from userspace then kill the task.

machine check
Newer versions of the System p firwmare send a partial RTAS error log in the
machine check handler with a more detailed response appearing sometime later
via check event.
This means at machine check time we do not have enough information to
ascertain exactly what went on. Furthermore, I have found the RTAS error
logs in the machine check handler contain no useful information, so halting on
them makes little sense. If we want to halt it would make more sense to do
it following the error log received sometime later via check event.
In light of this, never halt the error log in the pseries machine
check handler.

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.
This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).
Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

Create sysfs interface to export data from H_BEST_ENERGY hcall
that can be used by administrative tools on supported pseries
platforms for energy management optimizations.
sys/device/system/cpu/pseries_(de)activate_hint_list and
sys/device/system/cpu/cpuN/pseries_(de)activate_hint will provide
hints for activation and deactivation of cpus respectively.
These hints are abstract number given by the hypervisor based
on the extended knowledge the hypervisor has regarding the
system topology and resource mappings.
The activate and the deactivate sysfs entry is for the two
distinct operations that we could do for energy savings. When
we have more capacity than required, we could deactivate few
core to save energy. The choice of the core to deactivate
will be based on /sys/devices/system/cpu/deactivate_hint_list.
The comma separated list of cpus (cores) will be the preferred
choice. If we have to activate some of the deactivated cores,
then /sys/devices/system/cpu/activate_hint_list will be used.
The per-cpu file
/sys/device/system/cpu/cpuN/pseries_(de)activate_hint further
provide more fine grain information by exporting the value of
the hint itself.
