[RFC PATCH 00/10] ppc/pnv: Better big-core model, lpar-per-core, PC unit

[Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>]

Primary motivation for this series is to improve big-core support.
Other things like SPR indirect, timebase state, PC xscom, are required
for minimal big core support.

I'm still not 100% happy with the big-core topology model after this.
Maybe one day we add pnv big core and pnv small core structures. But
nothing is completely clean because big core mode still has certain
small core restrictions. I think for now we take a bit of mostly
abstracted ugliness in TCG code for the benefit of not spreading
hacks through pervasive (xscom) core addressing.

After this series, power9 and power10 get through skiboot/Linux boot
in SMT8 big-core mode. Not all big core registers are modeled
exactly (some are not shared between small core halves), but that
mostly doesn't matter for OPAL and it can be improved later.

Thanks,
Nick
