Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window.  Some of the
  highlights are:

   - A bunch of endian fixes ! We don't have full LE support yet in that
     release but this contains a lot of fixes all over arch/powerpc to
     use the proper accessors, call the firmware with the right endian
     mode, etc...

   - A few updates to our "powernv" platform (non-virtualized, the one
     to run KVM on), among other, support for bridging the P8 LPC bus
     for UARTs, support and some EEH fixes.

   - Some mpc51xx clock API cleanups in preparation for a clock API
     overhaul

   - A pile of cleanups of our old math emulation code, including better
     support for using it to emulate optional FP instructions on
     embedded chips that otherwise have a HW FPU.

   - Some infrastructure in selftest, for powerpc now, but could be
     generalized, initially used by some tests for our perf instruction
     counting code.

   - A pile of fixes for hotplug on pseries (that was seriously
     bitrotting)

   - The usual slew of freescale embedded updates, new boards, 64-bit
     hiberation support, e6500 core PMU support, etc..."

<title>powerpc/dts: update MSI bindings doc for MPIC v4.3</title>

<id>03daa99ef50873651e363fc12ae0b5facdb3f831</id>
<content type='text'>
Add compatible "fsl,mpic-msi-v4.3" for MPIC v4.3. MPIC v4.3 contains
MSIIR and MSIIR1. MSIIR supports 8 MSI registers and MSIIR1 supports
16 MSI registers, but uses different IBS and SRS shift. When using
MSIR1, the interrupt number is not consecutive. It is hard to use
'msi-available-ranges' to describe the ranges of the available
interrupt, so MPIC v4.3 does not support this property.

The Interlaken is a narrow, high speed channelized chip-to-chip interface. To
facilitate interoperability between a data path device and a look-aside
co-processor, the Interlaken Look-Aside protocol is defined for short
transaction-related transfers. Although based on the Interlaken protocol,
Interlaken Look-Aside is not directly compatible with Interlaken and can be
considered a different operation mode.

The Interlaken LA controller connects internal platform to Interlaken serial
interface. It accepts LA command through software portals, which are system
memory mapped 4KB spaces. The LA commands are then translated into the
Interlaken control words and data words, which are sent on TX side to TCAM
through SerDes lanes.

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "So from the depth of frozen Minnesota, here's the powerpc pull request
  for 3.9.  It has a few interesting highlights, in addition to the
  usual bunch of bug fixes, minor updates, embedded device tree updates
  and new boards:

   - Hand tuned asm implementation of SHA1 (by Paulus &amp; Michael
     Ellerman)

   - Support for Doorbell interrupts on Power8 (kind of fast
     thread-thread IPIs) by Ian Munsie

   - Long overdue cleanup of the way we handle relocation of our open
     firmware trampoline (prom_init.c) on 64-bit by Anton Blanchard

   - Support for saving/restoring &amp; context switching the PPR (Processor
     Priority Register) on server processors that support it.  This
     allows the kernel to preserve thread priorities established by
     userspace.  By Haren Myneni.

   - DAWR (new watchpoint facility) support on Power8 by Michael Neuling

   - Ability to change the DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) which
     controls cache prefetching on a running process via ptrace by
     Alexey Kardashevskiy

   - Support for context switching the TAR register on Power8 (new
     branch target register meant to be used by some new specific
     userspace perf event interrupt facility which is yet to be enabled)
     by Ian Munsie.

   - Improve preservation of the CFAR register (which captures the
     origin of a branch) on various exception conditions by Paulus.

   - Move the Bestcomm DMA driver from arch powerpc to drivers/dma where
     it belongs by Philippe De Muyter

   - Support for Transactional Memory on Power8 by Michael Neuling
     (based on original work by Matt Evans).  For those curious about
     the feature, the patch contains a pretty good description."

The PAMU caches use the LIODNs to determine which cache lines hold the
entries for the corresponding LIODs.  The LIODNs must therefore be
carefully assigned to avoid cache thrashing -- two active LIODs with
LIODNs that put them in the same cache line.

Currently, LIODNs are statically assigned by U-Boot, but this has
limitations.  LIODNs are assigned even for devices that may be disabled
or unused by the kernel.  Static assignments also do not allow for device
drivers which may know which LIODs can be used simultaneously.  In
other words, we really should assign LIODNs dynamically in Linux.

To do that, we need to describe the PAMU device and cache topologies in
the device trees.
