Chips such as e500mc that implement category E.HV in Power ISA 2.06
provide hardware virtualization features, including a new MSR mode for
guest state. The guest OS can perform many operations without trapping
into the hypervisor, including transitions to and from guest userspace.
Since we can use SRR1[GS] to reliably tell whether an exception came from
guest state, instead of messing around with IVPR, we use DO_KVM similarly
to book3s.
Current issues include:
- Machine checks from guest state are not routed to the host handler.
- The guest can cause a host oops by executing an emulated instruction
in a page that lacks read permission. Existing e500/4xx support has
the same problem.

The hardware maintains a per-set next victim hint. Using this
reduces conflicts, especially on e500v2 where a single guest
TLB entry is mapped to two shadow TLB entries (user and kernel).
We want those two entries to go to different TLB ways.
sesel is now only used for TLB1.

Split out the portions of tlbe_priv that should be associated with host
entries into tlbe_ref. Base victim selection on the number of hardware
entries, not guest entries.
For TLB1, where one guest entry can be mapped by multiple host entries,
we use the host tlbe_ref for tracking page references. For the guest
TLB0 entries, we still track it with gtlb_priv, to avoid having to
retranslate if the entry is evicted from the host TLB but not the
guest TLB.

Define HUGETLB_NEED_PRELOAD in mmu-book3e.h for CONFIG_PPC64 instead
of having a much more complicated #if block. This is easier to read
and maintain.

ICSWX is also used by the A2 processor to access coprocessors,
although not all "chips" that contain A2s have coprocessors.

Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors. This allows the kernel to
use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of
TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with
large memory footprints. Care should be taken when using this on FSL
processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low
(16-64) on current processors.
The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g.
Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and
must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated).
This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE
processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for
64-bit BooKE.

slb0_limit() wasn't a very descriptive name. This changes it along with
a comment explaining what it's used for, and provides a 64-bit BookE
implementation.

When we set up the TLB for ourselves on Book3E, we need to flush out any
old mappings established by the firmware or bootloader. At present we
attempt this with a tlbilx to flush everything, but this will leave behind
any entries with the IPROT bit set.
There are several good reason firmware might establish mappings with IPROT,
and in fact ePAPR compliant firmwares are required to establish their
initial mapped area with IPROT.
This patch, therefore adds more complex code to scan through the TLB upon
entry and flush away any entries that are not our own.

Update setup_page_sizes() to support for a MMU v1.0 FSL style MMU
implementation. In such a processor, we don't have TLB0PS or EPTCFG
registers (and access to these registers may cause exceptions). We need
to parse the older format of TLBnCFG for page size support. Additionaly,
assume since we are an FSL implementation that we have 2 TLB arrays and
the second array contains the variable size pages.

Use the MMU config registers to scan for available direct and
indirect page sizes and print out the result. Will be needed
for future hugetlbfs implementation.

The MMUCSR is now defined as part of the Book-3E architecture so we
can move it into mmu-book3e.h and add some of the additional bits
defined by the architecture specs.

The base TLB support didn't include support for SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, though
we did carve out some virtual space for it, the necessary support code
wasn't there. This implements it by using 16M pages for now, though the
page size could easily be changed at runtime if necessary.

This adds the PTE and pgtable format definitions, along with changes
to the kernel memory map and other definitions related to implementing
support for 64-bit Book3E. This also shields some asm-offset bits that
are currently only relevant on 32-bit
We also move the definition of the "linux" page size constants to
the common mmu.h file and add a few sizes that are relevant to
embedded processors.

The Power ISA 2.06 spec introduces a standard MMU programming model that
is based on the Freescale Book-E MMU programing model. The Freescale
version is pretty backwards compatiable with the ISA 2.06 definition so
we are starting to refactor some of the Freescale code so it can be
easily shared.
