Currently, we never set _PAGE_COHERENT in the PTEs, we just OR it in
in the hash code based on some CPU feature bit. We also manipulate
_PAGE_NO_CACHE and _PAGE_GUARDED by hand in all sorts of places.
This changes the logic so that instead, the PTE now contains
_PAGE_COHERENT for all normal RAM pages thay have I = 0 on platforms
that need it. The hash code clears it if the feature bit is not set.
It also adds some clean accessors to setup various valid combinations
of access flags and change various bits of code to use them instead.
This should help having the PTE actually containing the bit
combinations that we really want.
I also removed _PAGE_GUARDED from _PAGE_BASE on 44x and instead
set it explicitely from the TLB miss. I will ultimately remove it
completely as it appears that it might not be needed after all
but in the meantime, having it in the TLB miss makes things a
lot easier.

The typesafe version of the powerpc pagetable handling (with
USE_STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS defined) has bitrotted again. This patch
makes a bunch of small fixes to get it back to building status.
It's still not enabled by default as gcc still generates worse
code with it for some reason.

This rearranges a bit of code, and adds support for
36-bit physical addressing for configs that use a
hashed page table. The 36b physical support is not
enabled by default on any config - it must be
explicitly enabled via the config system.
This patch *only* expands the page table code to accomodate
large physical addresses on 32-bit systems and enables the
PHYS_64BIT config option for 86xx. It does *not*
allow you to boot a board with more than about 3.5GB of
RAM - for that, SWIOTLB support is also required (and
coming soon).

Implement _PAGE_SPECIAL and pte_special() for 32-bit powerpc. This bit will
be used by the fast get_user_pages() to differenciate PTEs that correspond
to a valid struct page from special mappings that don't such as IO mappings
obtained via io_remap_pfn_ranges().
We currently only implement this on sub-arch that support SMP or will so
in the future (6xx, 44x, FSL-BookE) and not (8xx, 40x).

There are some minor issues with support 64-bit PTEs on a 32-bit processor
when dealing with SMP.
* We need to order the stores in set_pte_at to make sure the flag word
is set second.
* Change pte_clear to use pte_update so only the flag word is cleared
* Added a WARN_ON to set_pte_at to ensure the pte isn't present for
the 64-bit pte/SMP case (to ensure our assumption of this fact).

from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a
mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm
Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
