<title>powerpc/iommu: Move tce_xxx callbacks from ppc_md to iommu_table</title>

<id>da004c3600f52e4f05017f60970e5010978006bc</id>
<content type='text'>
This adds a iommu_table_ops struct and puts pointer to it into
the iommu_table struct. This moves tce_build/tce_free/tce_get/tce_flush
callbacks from ppc_md to the new struct where they really belong to.

This adds the requirement for @it_ops to be initialized before calling
iommu_init_table() to make sure that we do not leave any IOMMU table
with iommu_table_ops uninitialized. This is not a parameter of
iommu_init_table() though as there will be cases when iommu_init_table()
will not be called on TCE tables, for example - VFIO.

This does s/tce_build/set/, s/tce_free/clear/ and removes "tce_"
redundant prefixes.

This removes tce_xxx_rm handlers from ppc_md but does not add
them to iommu_table_ops as this will be done later if we decide to
support TCE hypercalls in real mode. This removes _vm callbacks as
only virtual mode is supported by now so this also removes @rm parameter.

For pSeries, this always uses tce_buildmulti_pSeriesLP/
tce_buildmulti_pSeriesLP. This changes multi callback to fall back to
tce_build_pSeriesLP/tce_free_pSeriesLP if FW_FEATURE_MULTITCE is not
present. The reason for this is we still have to support "multitce=off"
boot parameter in disable_multitce() and we do not want to walk through
all IOMMU tables in the system and replace "multi" callbacks with single
ones.

For powernv, this defines _ops per PHB type which are P5IOC2/IODA1/IODA2.
This makes the callbacks for them public. Later patches will extend
callbacks for IODA1/2.

No change in behaviour is expected.

<title>powerpc/cell: Move MSI-related ops to pci_controller_ops</title>

Move the Cell platform to use the pci_controller_ops structure rather
than ppc_md for MSI related PCI controller operations.

We can be confident that the functions will be added to the platform's
ops struct before any PCI controller's ops struct is populated
because:

1) These ops are added to the struct in a subsys initcall.

We populate the ops in axon_msi_probe, which is the probe call for the
axon-msi driver. However the driver is registered in axon_msi_init,
which is a subsys initcall, so this will happen at the subsys level.

2) The controller recieves the struct later, in a device initcall.

Cell populates the controller in cell_setup_phb, which is hooked up to
ppc_md.pci_setup_phb. ppc_md.pci_setup_phb is only ever called in
of_platform.c, as part of the OpenFirmware PCI driver's probe
routine. That driver is registered in a device initcall, so it will
occur *after* the struct is properly populated.

<content type='text'>
The recent patch to convert cell to use pci_controller_ops had a small
bug which broke machines using an iommu.

The set of phb-&gt;controller_ops was added after the check for name !=
"pci", meaning pcix/pcie PHBs weren't getting their ops set correctly.

smp_ops-&gt;probe() is currently supposed to return the number of cpus in
the system.

The last actual usage of the value was removed in May 2007 in e147ec8f1808
"[POWERPC] Simplify smp_space_timers". We still passed the value around
until June 2010 when even that was finally removed in c1aa687d499a
"powerpc: Clean up obsolete code relating to decrementer and timebase".

So drop that requirement, probe() now returns void, and update all
implementations.
