The fixmap code from x86 allows us to have compile time virtual addresses
that we change the physical addresses of at run time.
This is useful for applications like kmap_atomic, PCI config that is done
via direct memory map, kexec/kdump.
We got ride of CONFIG_HIGHMEM_START as we can now determine a more optimal
location for PKMAP_BASE based on where the fixmap addresses start and
working back from there.
Additionally, the kmap code in asm-powerpc/highmem.h always had debug
enabled. Moved to using CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM to determine if we should
have the extra debug checking.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
