Without this patch, on an idle system I get:
cpu-power-0:21.638
cpu-power-1:27.102
cpu-power-2:29.343
cpu-power-3:25.784
Total: 103.8W
With this patch:
cpu-power-0:11.730
cpu-power-1:17.185
cpu-power-2:18.547
cpu-power-3:17.528
Total: 65.0W
If I lower HZ to 100, I can get it as low as:
cpu-power-0:10.938
cpu-power-1:16.021
cpu-power-2:17.245
cpu-power-3:16.145
Total: 60.2W
Another (older) Quad G5 went from 54W to 39W at HZ=250.
Coming back out of Deep Nap takes 40-70 cycles longer than coming back
from just Nap (which already takes quite a while). I don't think it'll
be a performance issue (interrupt latency on an idle system), but in
case someone does measurements feel free to report them.

Cleanup CPU inits a bit more, Geoff Levand already did some earlier.
* Move CPU state save to cpu_setup, since cpu_setup is only ever done
on cpu 0 on 64-bit and save is never done more than once.
* Rename __restore_cpu_setup to __restore_cpu_ppc970 and add
function pointers to the cputable to use instead. Powermac always
has 970 so no need to check there.
* Rename __970_cpu_preinit to __cpu_preinit_ppc970 and check PVR before
calling it instead of in it, it's too early to use cputable.
* Rename pSeries_secondary_smp_init to generic_secondary_smp_init since
everyone but powermac and iSeries use it.

Rename cpu_setup_power4.S to cpu_setup_ppc970.S, since that's
really what it is.

Removed the do-nothing routines __setup_cpu_power3 and
__setup_cpu_power4 and replaced them with a null pointer check
in the caller. Also removed the Cell processor specific
routine __setup_cpu_be which improperly accessed the
hypervisor page size configuration at SPR HID6.

This patch consolidates the variety of macros used for loading 32 or
64-bit constants in assembler (LOADADDR, LOADBASE, SET_REG_TO_*). The
idea is to make the set of macros consistent across 32 and 64 bit and
to make it more obvious which is the appropriate one to use in a given
situation. The new macros and their semantics are described in the
comments in ppc_asm.h.
In the process, we change several places that were unnecessarily using
immediate loads on ppc64 to use the GOT/TOC. Likewise we cleanup a
couple of places where we were clumsily subtracting PAGE_OFFSET with
asm instructions to use assemble-time arithmetic or the toreal() macro
instead.

This patch moves a bunch of files from arch/ppc64 and
include/asm-ppc64 which have no equivalents in ppc32 code into
arch/powerpc and include/asm-powerpc. The file affected are:
abs_addr.h
compat.h
lppaca.h
paca.h
tce.h
cpu_setup_power4.S
ioctl32.c
firmware.c
pacaData.c
The only changes apart from the move and corresponding Makefile
changes are:
- #ifndef/#define in includes updated to _ASM_POWERPC_ form
- trailing whitespace removed
- comments giving full paths removed
- pacaData.c renamed paca.c to remove studlyCaps
- Misplaced { moved in lppaca.h
Built and booted on POWER5 LPAR (ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc64), built
for 32-bit powermac (ARCH=powerpc).

This adds the basic support for running on BPA machines.
So far, this is only the IBM workstation, and it will
not run on others without a little more generalization.
It should be possible to configure a kernel for any
combination of CONFIG_PPC_BPA with any of the other
multiplatform targets.

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!
