Hi,

This patchset adds the emulation of the IBM RS/6000 7020 (40p). The real machine is
able to run AIX (up to 4.3.3), Windows NT (up to 4.0 SP1), the beta of OS/2 PowerPC,
Solaris, Linux, NetBSD/PReP ...

I've tested current emulation with Open Hack'Ware, OpenBIOS and official firmware.

Linux kernel starts, and freezes during boot (seems like a problem with the SCSI adapter).
Windows NT starts up to the point where it wants to change endianness.
Other OSes have not been tested.

This machine is a superset of the 'prep' one, because we know exactly what is/should
emulated, and that operating system list running on it is quite wide.
I hope that 'prep' machine can be deprecated soon and then later removed.

Patch 1 is a cleanup, and can probably be committed first.
Patches 2 to 4  are the real implementation of the IBM 40p.

Changes since v1:
- removed patches related to display adapter:
  Let's wait for an emulation of the real display adapter (an S3 Trio), as current
  VGA adapter already mostly works with Open Hack'Ware and OpenBIOS
- various changes due to David Gibson's remarks

Hervé Poussineau (4):
  prep: do not use global variable to access nvram
  prep: add PReP System I/O
  prep: add IBM RS/6000 7020 (40p) memory controller
  prep: add IBM RS/6000 7020 (40p) machine emulation
