This patch series fixes nonfaulting load ASIs and traps related to them.
According to "8.3.4 Non-Faulting Load" in the UltraSPARC-IIi User's Manual,
a CPU should raise a TLB miss to the system software if the load is for
unmapped area:
  "When a non-faulting load encounters a TLB miss, the operating system
  should attempt to translate the page. If the translation results in
  an error (for example, address out of range), a 0 is returned and the
  load completes silently."

The first 4 patches are not directly related to nonfaulting load
but are cleanups and fixes for preparing for the fix.  The next 2 patches
fix the problem and the last one is for related faults other than
the TLB miss.

Tsuneo Saito (7):
  SPARC64: TTE bits cleanup
  SPARC64: SFSR cleanup and fix
  SPARC64: introduce a convenience function for getting physical
    addresses
  SPARC64: split cpu_get_phys_page_debug() from
    cpu_get_phys_page_nofault()
  SPARC64: fix fault status overwritten on nonfaulting load
  SPARC64: implement MMU miss traps on nonfaulting loads
  SPARC64: implement addtional MMU faults related to nonfaulting load
