memmove may be called from module code copy_pages(btrfs), and it may
call memcpy, which may call back to C code, so it needs to use
_GLOBAL_TOC to set up r2 correctly.

This fixes following error when I tried to boot an le guest:

<title>powerpc/pseries: dynamically added OF nodes need to call of_node_init</title>

Commit 75b57ecf9 refactored device tree nodes to use kobjects such that they
can be exposed via /sysfs. A secondary commit 0829f6d1f furthered this rework
by moving the kobect initialization logic out of of_node_add into its own
of_node_init function. The inital commit removed the existing kref_init calls
in the pseries dlpar code with the assumption kobject initialization would
occur in of_node_add. The second commit had the side effect of triggering a
BUG_ON during DLPAR, migration and suspend/resume operations as a result of
dynamically added nodes being uninitialized.

This patch fixes this by adding of_node_init calls in place of the previously
removed kref_init calls.

We now support TASK_SIZE of 16TB, hence the array should be 8.

Fixes the below crash:

This fixes some bugs in emulate_step().  First, the setting of the carry
bit for the arithmetic right-shift instructions was not correct on 64-bit
machines because we were masking with a mask of type int rather than
unsigned long.  Secondly, the sld (shift left doubleword) instruction was
using the wrong instruction field for the register containing the shift
count.

These processors do not currently support doorbell IPIs, so remove them
from the feature list if we are at DD 1.xx for the 0x004d part.

This fixes a regression caused by d4e58e5928f8 (powerpc/powernv: Enable
POWER8 doorbell IPIs). With that patch the kernel would hang at boot
when calling smp_call_function_many, as the doorbell would not be
received by the target CPUs:

Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The locking department delivers:

   - A rather large and intrusive bundle of fixes to address serious
     performance regressions introduced by the new rwsem / mcs
     technology.  Simpler solutions have been discussed, but they would
     have been ugly bandaids with more risk than doing the right thing.

   - Make the rwsem spin on owner technology opt-in for architectures
     and enable it only on the known to work ones.

   - A few fixes to the lockdep userspace library"

* 'locking-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  locking/rwsem: Add CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER
  locking/mutex: Disable optimistic spinning on some architectures
  locking/rwsem: Reduce the size of struct rw_semaphore
  locking/rwsem: Rename 'activity' to 'count'
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Micro-optimize osq_unlock()
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Introduce and use init macro and function for osq locks
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Convert osq lock to atomic_t to reduce overhead
  locking/spinlocks/mcs: Rename optimistic_spin_queue() to optimistic_spin_node()
  locking/rwsem: Allow conservative optimistic spinning when readers have lock
  tools/liblockdep: Account for bitfield changes in lockdeps lock_acquire
  tools/liblockdep: Remove debug print left over from development
  tools/liblockdep: Fix comparison of a boolean value with a value of 2

The optimistic spin code assumes regular stores and cmpxchg() play nice;
this is found to not be true for at least: parisc, sparc32, tile32,
metag-lock1, arc-!llsc and hexagon.

There is further wreckage, but this in particular seemed easy to
trigger, so blacklist this.

Opt in for known good archs.
