This patch changes the syscall handler to doom (tabort) active
transactions when a syscall is made and return very early without
performing the syscall and keeping side effects to a minimum (no CPU
accounting or system call tracing is performed). Also included is a
new HWCAP2 bit, PPC_FEATURE2_HTM_NOSC, to indicate this
behaviour to userspace.

Currently, the system call instruction automatically suspends an
active transaction which causes side effects to persist when an active
transaction fails.

This does change the kernel's behaviour, but in a way that was
documented as unsupported.  It doesn't reduce functionality as
syscalls will still be performed after tsuspend; it just requires that
the transaction be explicitly suspended.  It also provides a
consistent interface and makes the behaviour of user code
substantially the same across powerpc and platforms that do not
support suspended transactions (e.g. x86 and s390).

Performance measurements using
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/null_syscall.c indicate the cost of
a normal (non-aborted) system call increases by about 0.25%.

This patch adds a new documentation file explaining the DSCR support on
powerpc platforms. This explains DSCR related data structure, code paths
and also available user interfaces. Any further functional changes to
the DSCR support in the kernel should definitely update the
documentation here.

This reverts commit feba40362b11341bee6d8ed58d54b896abbd9f84.

Although the principle of this change is good, the implementation has a
few issues.

Firstly we can sometimes fail to abort a syscall because r12 may have
been clobbered by C code if we went down the virtual CPU accounting
path, or if syscall tracing was enabled.

Secondly we have decided that it is safer to abort the syscall even
earlier in the syscall entry path, so that we avoid the syscall tracing
path when we are transactional.

So that we have time to thoroughly test those changes we have decided to
revert this for this merge window and will merge the fixed version in
the next window.

NB. Rather than reverting the selftest we just drop tm-syscall from
TEST_PROGS so that it's not run by default.

In order to enable SRIOV on PowerNV platform, the PF's IOV BAR needs to be
adjusted:

    1. size expanded
    2. aligned to M64BT size

This patch documents this change on the reason and how.

The 440 target hasn't been properly functioning for a few releases and
before I was the only one who fixes a very serious bug that indicates to
me that nobody used it before either.

Furthermore KVM on 440 is slow to the extent of unusable.

We don't have to carry along completely unused code. Remove 440 and give
us one less thing to worry about.
