POWERPC: Allow 32-bit hashed pgtable code to support 36-bit physical
This rearranges a bit of code, and adds support for
36-bit physical addressing for configs that use a
hashed page table. The 36b physical support is not
enabled by default on any config - it must be
explicitly enabled via the config system.
This patch *only* expands the page table code to accomodate
large physical addresses on 32-bit systems and enables the
PHYS_64BIT config option for 86xx. It does *not*
allow you to boot a board with more than about 3.5GB of
RAM - for that, SWIOTLB support is also required (and
coming soon).
