In testing the new clocksource and clockevent code on a PPC601 processor, I discovered that the clockevent multiplier value for the decrementer clockevent was overflowing. Because the RTCL register in the 601 effectively counts at 1GHz (it doesn't actually, but it increases by 128 every 128ns), and the shift value was 32, that meant the multiplier value had to be 2^32, which won't fit in an unsigned long on 32-bit. The same problem would arise on any platform where the timebase frequency was 1GHz or more (not that we actually have any such machines today). This fixes it by reducing the shift value to 16. Doing the calculations with a resolution of 2^-16 nanoseconds (15 femtoseconds) should be quite adequate. :) Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

On old powermacs, we sometimes set the decrementer to 1 in order to trigger a decrementer interrupt, which we use to handle an interrupt that was pending at the time when it was re-enabled. This was causing the decrementer clock event device to call the event function for the next event early, which was causing problems when high-res timers were not enabled. This fixes the problem by recording the timebase value at which the next event should occur, and checking the current timebase against the recorded value in timer_interrupt. If it isn't time for the next event, it just reprograms the decrementer and returns. This also subtracts 1 from the value stored into the decrementer, which is appropriate because the decrementer interrupts on the transition from 0 to -1, not when the decrementer reaches 0.

Some IBM machines supply a "logical" PVR (processor version register) value in the device tree in the cpu nodes rather than the real PVR. This is used for instance to indicate that the processors in a POWER6 partition have been configured by the hypervisor to run in POWER5+ mode rather than POWER6 mode. To cope with this, we call identify_cpu a second time with the logical PVR value (the first call is with the real PVR value in the very early setup code). However, POWER5+ machines can also supply a logical PVR value, and use the same value (the value that indicates a v2.04 architecture compliant processor). This causes problems for code that uses the performance monitor (such as oprofile), because the PMU registers are different in POWER6 (even in POWER5+ mode) from the real POWER5+. This change works around this problem by taking out the PMU information from the cputable entries for the logical PVR values, and changing identify_cpu so that the second call to it won't overwrite the PMU information that was established by the first call (the one with the real PVR), but does update the other fields. Specifically, if the cputable entry for the logical PVR value has num_pmcs == 0, none of the PMU-related fields get used. So that we can create a mixed cputable entry, we now make cur_cpu_spec point to a single static struct cpu_spec, and copy stuff from cpu_specs[i] into it. This has the side-effect that we can now make cpu_specs[] be initdata. Ultimately it would be good to move the PMU-related fields out to a separate structure, pointed to by the cputable entries, and change identify_cpu so that it saves the PMU info pointer, copies the whole structure, and restores the PMU info pointer, rather than identify_cpu having to list all the fields that are *not* PMU-related.

Don't allow cpu hotplug on systems lacking XICS interrupt controller (i.e. with an MPIC interrupt controller), since the current pSeries platform code is hardcoded for XICS. This works around the bug reported by Paul Mackerras where the disable_nonboot_cpus() call recently added to the shutdown path will cause an oops on older pSeries machines.

Our _GLOBAL macro does a ".align 2" so the alignment is fine for 32 bit, but on 64 bit it is possible for it to end up only 4 byte aligned. I don't know if it matters, but it can't hurt to 8 byte align it. It also means that when we build with --emit_relocs, none of our 64 bit relocations are to misaligned places.

Since bootdevice never gets initialized, it's always NULL, and hence a whole pile of code in arch/powerpc/platforms/setup.c never gets used. (This was the code that originally was there so that the automatic root partition selection mechanism would prefer a rootish-looking partition on the device that OF loaded the kernel from over a similar partition on other devices.)
