c5ff700116 [PATCH] powerpc: Merge signal.h
Having already merged the ppc and ppc64 versions of signal.c, this
patch finishes the job by merging signal.h.  The two versions were
almost identical already.  Notable changes:
	- We use BITS_PER_LONG to correctly size sigset_t
	- Remove some uneeded #includes and struct forward
declarations.  This does mean adding an include to signal_32.c which
relied on the indirect inclusion of sigcontext.h
	- As the ppc64 version, the merged signal.h has prototypes for
do_signal() and do_signal32().  Thus remove extra prototypes from
ppc_ksyms.c which had them directly.

Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc).  Built
for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc).

dcad47fc42 [PATCH] powerpc: Kill ppcdebug
The ancient ppcdebug/PPCDBG mechanism is now only used in two places.
First, in the hash setup code, one of the bits allows the size of the
hash table to be reduced by a factor of 8 - which would be better
accomplished with a command line option for that purpose.  The other
was a bunch of bus walking related messages in the iSeries code, which
would seem to be insufficient reason to keep the mechanism.

This patch removes the last traces of this mechanism.

Built and booted on iSeries and pSeries POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc).

25c8a78b1e [PATCH] powerpc: Fix handling of fpscr on 64-bit
The recent merge of fpu.S broken the handling of fpscr for
ARCH=powerpc and CONFIG_PPC64=y.  FP registers could be corrupted,
leading to strange random application crashes.

The confusion arises, because the thread_struct has (and requires) a
64-bit area to save the fpscr, because we use load/store double
instructions to get it in to/out of the FPU.  However, only the low
32-bits are actually used, so we want to treat it as a 32-bit quantity
when manipulating its bits to avoid extra load/stores on 32-bit.  This
patch replaces the current definition with a structure of two 32-bit
quantities (pad and val), to clarify things as much as is possible.
The 'val' field is used when manipulating bits, the structure itself
is used when obtaining the address for loading/unloading the value
from the FPU.

While we're at it, consolidate the 4 (!) almost identical versions of
cvt_fd() and cvt_df() (arch/ppc/kernel/misc.S,
arch/ppc64/kernel/misc.S, arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S,
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_64.S) into a single version in fpu.S.  The
new version takes a pointer to thread_struct and applies the correct
offset itself, rather than a pointer to the fpscr field itself, again
to avoid confusion as to which is the correct field to use.

Finally, this patch makes ARCH=ppc64 also use the consolidated fpu.S
code, which it previously did not.

Built for G5 (ARCH=ppc64 and ARCH=powerpc), 32-bit powermac (ARCH=ppc
and ARCH=powerpc) and Walnut (ARCH=ppc, CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y).
Booted on G5 (ARCH=powerpc) and things which previously fell over no
longer do.

e2b5530698 ppc64: Fix delivery of RT signals to 32-bit processes.
An error in merging led to 32-bit processes getting the wrong link
register value on entry to RT signal handlers, and the wrong stack
chain as well.  This fixes it.

b09a4913b1 powerpc: change sys32_ to compat_sys_
This allows us to get rid of one type of entry in systbl.S.

In passing we remove the duplicate compat_sys_getdents and
compat_sys_utimes for which there are generic versions.
