Michael Neuling 78fbc824ed powerpc: Fix uninitialised variable in VSX alignment code
This fixes an uninitialised variable in the VSX alignment code.  It can
cause warnings from GCC (noticed with gcc-4.1.1).  Gcc is actually
correct in this instance, and this bug could cause the alignment
interrupt handler to send a SIGSEGV to the process on a legitimate
access.

Michael Neuling cd6f37be7f powerpc: Add VSX load/store alignment exception handler
VSX loads and stores will take an alignment exception when the address
is not on a 4 byte boundary.

This add support for these alignment exceptions and will emulate the
requested load or store.

Michael Neuling 9c75a31c35 powerpc: Add macros to access floating point registers in thread_struct.
We are going to change where the floating point registers are stored
in the thread_struct, so in preparation add some macros to access the
floating point registers.  Update all code to use these new macros.

Kumar Gala 26caeb2ee1 [POWERPC] Handle alignment faults on SPE load/store instructions
This adds code to handle alignment traps generated by the following
SPE (signal processing engine) load/store instructions, by emulating
the instruction in the kernel (as is done for other instructions that
generate alignment traps):

evldd[x]         Vector Load Double Word into Double Word [Indexed]
evldw[x]         Vector Load Double into Two Words [Indexed]
evldh[x]         Vector Load Double into Four Half Words [Indexed]
evlhhesplat[x]   Vector Load Half Word into Half Words Even and Splat [Indexed]
evlhhousplat[x]  Vector Load Half Word into Half Word Odd Unsigned and Splat [Indexed]
evlhhossplat[x]  Vector Load Half Word into Half Word Odd Signed and Splat [Indexed]
evlwhe[x]        Vector Load Word into Two Half Words Even [Indexed]
evlwhou[x]       Vector Load Word into Two Half Words Odd Unsigned (zero-extended) [Indexed]
evlwhos[x]       Vector Load Word into Two Half Words Odd Signed (with sign extension) [Indexed]
evlwwsplat[x]    Vector Load Word into Word and Splat [Indexed]
evlwhsplat[x]    Vector Load Word into Two Half Words and Splat [Indexed]
evstdd[x]        Vector Store Double of Double [Indexed]
evstdw[x]        Vector Store Double of Two Words [Indexed]
evstdh[x]        Vector Store Double of Four Half Words [Indexed]
evstwhe[x]       Vector Store Word of Two Half Words from Even [Indexed]
evstwho[x]       Vector Store Word of Two Half Words from Odd [Indexed]
evstwwe[x]       Vector Store Word of Word from Even [Indexed]
evstwwo[x]       Vector Store Word of Word from Odd [Indexed]

Paul Mackerras c6d4267ece [POWERPC] Handle alignment faults on new FP load/store instructions
This adds code to handle alignment traps generated by the following
new floating-point load/store instructions, by emulating the
instruction in the kernel (as is done for other instructions that
generate alignment traps):

lfiwax	load floating-point as integer word algebraic indexed
stfiwx	store floating-point as integer word indexed
lfdp	load floating-point double pair
lfdpx	load floating-point double pair indexed
stfdp	store floating-point double pair
stfdpx	store floating-point double pair indexed

All these except stfiwx are new in POWER6.

lfdp/lfdpx/stfdp/stfdpx load and store 16 bytes of memory into an
even/odd FP register pair.  In little-endian mode each 8-byte value is
byte-reversed separately (i.e. not as a 16-byte unit).  lfiwax/stfiwx
load or store the lower 4 bytes of a floating-point register from/to
memory; lfiwax sets the upper 4 bytes of the FP register to the sign
extension of the value loaded.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt e4ee3891db [POWERPC] Alignment exception uses __get/put_user_inatomic
Make the alignment exception handler use the new _inatomic variants
of __get/put_user. This fixes erroneous warnings in the very rare
cases where we manage to have copy_tofrom_user_inatomic() trigger
an alignment exception.

Paul Mackerras fab5db97e4 [PATCH] powerpc: Implement support for setting little-endian mode via prctl
This adds the PowerPC part of the code to allow processes to change
their endian mode via prctl.

This also extends the alignment exception handler to be able to fix up
alignment exceptions that occur in little-endian mode, both for
"PowerPC" little-endian and true little-endian.

We always enter signal handlers in big-endian mode -- the support for
little-endian mode does not amount to the creation of a little-endian
user/kernel ABI.  If the signal handler returns, the endian mode is
restored to what it was when the signal was delivered.

We have two new kernel CPU feature bits, one for PPC little-endian and
one for true little-endian.  Most of the classic 32-bit processors
support PPC little-endian, and this is reflected in the CPU feature
table.  There are two corresponding feature bits reported to userland
in the AT_HWCAP aux vector entry.

This is based on an earlier patch by Anton Blanchard.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 5daf9071b5 [PATCH] powerpc: merge align.c
This patch merges align.c, the result isn't quite what was in ppc64 nor
what was in ppc32 :) It should implement all the functionalities of both
though. Kumar, since you played with that in the past, I suppose you
have some test cases for verifying that it works properly before I dig
out the 601 machine ? :)

Since it's likely that I won't be able to test all scenario, code
inspection is much welcome.
