[PATCH] Big powermac update

[Benjamin Herrenschmidt]

Hi !

Time for a big PowerMac merge, a bunch of these things are driver
updates and machine support fixes that went in after the 2.6.0-rc
code freeze, and support for newer machines (including 32 bits support
for the G5).

This is for inclusion with -mm and possible comments, currently, the 51
changesets are folded in one big patch. When it's time to merge with
linus, he'll get them as separate csets.

The full support for the G5 also need a sungem driver update currently
in davem's hands.

The full support for all recent pmacs also wants some fbdev updates that
will come separately.

Too big to be posted here (and I didn't feel like using Greg's script to
post 51 emails in burst to lkml :) so here's an URL to pick it up:

http://gate.crashing.org/~benh/big-pmac.diff
or

Can you please put the 970 register definitions into
include/asm-ppc/reg_970.h or something along those lines?

I won't create a file for 3 registers :) Also, HID2/3 are defined
on other CPUs, as HIOR, none of these are strictly 970 specific
in fact though we only use them on it (coment may need fixing, bu
that's ok at this point).

Are they found on regular, classic PPCs or just on others in the
64bit family?  The problem is we don't want to let <asm/reg.h> get to be
as bad as it used to be.

HID2 exist on some 750FX afaik, HID3 and upper probably only on
POWER4/GPUL at this point and HIOR is specific to HV capable CPUs,
but then, afgain, it's only 3 registers :)

But that's how it starts out... :)  If it turns out that you need to add
more regs in later, can you please move all of the POWER4/GPUL
definitions into their own file?  Thanks.

Will do if it's really necessary. At this point it is really not :)
