Pull powerpc merge from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
"Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window. It is going to be a
bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of
arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got
rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to
maintain and that nobody really used anymore.
Here are some of the highlights:
- Legacy iSeries is gone. Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits
and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but
they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks
hopefully.
- The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the
previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"... it's a rewrite of a
mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the
new implementation hopefully being much more reliable. Thanks
Mahesh Salgaonkar.
- The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling & recovery) got a big
spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a
new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare.
The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is
there. Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is
not very nice and which Grant objects to. I will have a patch soon
that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully
before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully
getting rid of the need for that pointer completely). Thanks Gavin
Shan.
- I dug into our exception & interrupt handling code to improve the
way we do lazy interrupt handling (and make it work properly with
"edge" triggered interrupt sources), and while at it found & fixed
a wagon of issues in those areas, including adding support for page
fault retry & fatal signals on page faults.
- Your usual random batch of small fixes & updates, including a bunch
of new embedded boards, both Freescale and APM based ones, etc..."
I fixed up some conflicts with the generalized irq-domain changes from
Grant Likely, hopefully correctly.

When the system is under heavy load, we occasionally saw a problem where
the system would get a legitimate interrupt when they should be
disabled.
This was caused by the data_dma_cb() DMA callback unconditionally
re-enabling FPGA interrupts even when data dumping is disabled. When
data dumping was re-enabled, the irq handler would fire while a DMA was
in progress. The "BUG_ON(priv->inflight != NULL);" during the second
invocation of the DMA callback caused the system to crash.
To fix the issue, the priv->enabled boolean is moved under the
protection of the priv->lock spinlock. The DMA callback checks the
boolean to know whether to re-enable FPGA interrupts before it returns.
Now that it is fixed, the driver keeps FPGA interrupts disabled when it
expects that they are disabled, fixing the bug.

Lockdep occasionally complains with the message:
INFO: HARDIRQ-safe -> HARDIRQ-unsafe lock order detected
This is caused by calling videobuf_dma_unmap() under spin_lock_irq(). To
fix the warning, we drop the lock before unmapping and freeing the
buffer.

This patch converts the drivers in drivers/misc/* to use the
module_platform_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.

This adds support for programming the data processing FPGAs on the OVRO
CARMA board. These FPGAs have a special programming sequence that
requires that we program the Freescale DMA engine, which is only
available inside the kernel.

This driver allows userspace to access the data processing FPGAs on the
OVRO CARMA board. It has two modes of operation:
1) random access
This allows users to poke any DATA-FPGA registers by using mmap to map
the address region directly into their memory map.
2) correlation dumping
When correlating, the DATA-FPGA's have special requirements for getting
the data out of their memory before the next correlation. This nominally
happens at 64Hz (every 15.625ms). If the data is not dumped before the
next correlation, data is lost.
The data dumping driver handles buffering up to 1 second worth of
correlation data from the FPGAs. This lowers the realtime scheduling
requirements for the userspace process reading the device.
