Diagnostic data for PHBs currently works by allocated a fixed-sized buffer.
This is simple, but either wastes memory (though only a few kilobytes) or
in the case of PHB4 isn't enough to fit the whole data blob.
For machines that don't describe the diagnostic data size in the device
tree, use the hardcoded buffer size as before. For those that do, only
allocate exactly what's needed.
In the special case of P7IOC (which has two types of diag data), the larger
should be specified in the device tree.

Bits Configuration

1 : Scale out 24 cores
2 : Scale up 12 cores
3 : Scale up 24 cores
DD1 doesn't use this but DD2 does. Linux will mostly use the "Scale

This converts the powerpc VDSO time update function to use the new
interface introduced in commit 576094b7f0 ("time: Introduce new
GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL", 2012-09-11). Where the old interface gave
us the time as of the last update in seconds and whole nanoseconds,
with the new interface we get the nanoseconds part effectively in
a binary fixed-point format with tk->tkr_mono.shift bits to the
right of the binary point.
With the old interface, the fractional nanoseconds got truncated,
meaning that the value returned by the VDSO clock_gettime function
would have about 1ns of jitter in it compared to the value computed
by the generic timekeeping code in the kernel.
The powerpc VDSO time functions (clock_gettime and gettimeofday)
already work in units of 2^-32 seconds, or 0.23283 ns, because that
makes it simple to split the result into seconds and fractional
seconds, and represent the fractional seconds in either microseconds
or nanoseconds. This is good enough accuracy for now, so this patch
avoids changing how the VDSO works or the interface in the VDSO data
page.
This patch converts the powerpc update_vsyscall_old to be called
update_vsyscall and use the new interface. We convert the fractional
second to units of 2^-32 seconds without truncating to whole nanoseconds.
(There is still a conversion to whole nanoseconds for any legacy users
of the vdso_data/systemcfg stamp_xtime field.)
In addition, this improves the accuracy of the computation of tb_to_xs
for those systems with high-frequency timebase clocks (>= 268.5 MHz)
by doing the right shift in two parts, one before the multiplication and
one after, rather than doing the right shift before the multiplication.
(We can't do all of the right shift after the multiplication unless we
use 128-bit arithmetic.)

When the CPU wakes from low power state, it begins at the system reset

Today, powernv idle wakeup ignores the wakeup reason (except a special

exception will fire after the idle wakeup exits.
Change this to replay the interrupt from the idle wakeup before
interrupts are hard-enabled.

POWER9 DD1 requires the copy buffer to always be cleared on context

The syscall exit code that branches to restore_math is quite heavy on
Book3S, consisting of 2 mtmsr instructions. Threads that don't use both
FP and vector can get caught here if the kernel ever uses FP or vector.
Lazy-FP/vec context switching also trips this case.
So check for lazy FP and vector before switching RI for restore_math.
Move most of this case out of line.
For threads that do want to restore math registers, the MSR switches are
still suboptimal. Future direction may be to use a soft-RI bit to avoid
MSR switches in kernel (similar to soft-EE), but for now at least the
no-restore

It turns out there are a some volatile registers common to both system

avoid the SPR and some other overheads. This brings getppid to 320 cycles
(+4%).
