902137ba8e powerpc/32: Add VDSO version of getcpu on non SMP
Commit 18ad51dd34 ("powerpc: Add VDSO version of getcpu") added
getcpu() for PPC64 only, by making use of a user readable general
purpose SPR.

PPC32 doesn't have any such SPR.

For non SMP, just return CPU id 0 from the VDSO directly.
PPC32 doesn't support CONFIG_NUMA so NUMA node is always 0.

Before the patch, vdsotest reported:
getcpu: syscall: 1572 nsec/call
getcpu:    libc: 1787 nsec/call
getcpu:    vdso: not tested

Now, vdsotest reports:
getcpu: syscall: 1582 nsec/call
getcpu:    libc: 502 nsec/call
getcpu:    vdso: 187 nsec/call

152d44a853 powerpc: 32 bit getcpu VDSO function uses 64 bit instructions
I used some 64 bit instructions when adding the 32 bit getcpu VDSO
function. Fix it.

9d378dfac8 powerpc/booke64: Use SPRG7 for VDSO
Previously SPRG3 was marked for use by both VDSO and critical
interrupts (though critical interrupts were not fully implemented).

In commit 8b64a9dfb0 ("powerpc/booke64:
Use SPRG0/3 scratch for bolted TLB miss & crit int"), Mihai Caraman
made an attempt to resolve this conflict by restoring the VDSO value
early in the critical interrupt, but this has some issues:

 - It's incompatible with EXCEPTION_COMMON which restores r13 from the
   by-then-overwritten scratch (this cost me some debugging time).
 - It forces critical exceptions to be a special case handled
   differently from even machine check and debug level exceptions.
 - It didn't occur to me that it was possible to make this work at all
   (by doing a final "ld r13, PACA_EXCRIT+EX_R13(r13)") until after
   I made (most of) this patch. :-)

It might be worth investigating using a load rather than SPRG on return
from all exceptions (except TLB misses where the scratch never leaves
the SPRG) -- it could save a few cycles.  Until then, let's stick with
SPRG for all exceptions.

Since we cannot use SPRG4-7 for scratch without corrupting the state of
a KVM guest, move VDSO to SPRG7 on book3e.  Since neither SPRG4-7 nor
critical interrupts exist on book3s, SPRG3 is still used for VDSO
there.

18ad51dd34 powerpc: Add VDSO version of getcpu
We have a request for a fast method of getting CPU and NUMA node IDs
from userspace. This patch implements a getcpu VDSO function,
similar to x86.

Ben suggested we use SPRG3 which is userspace readable. SPRG3 can be
modified by a KVM guest, so we save the SPRG3 value in the paca and
restore it when transitioning from the guest to the host.

I have a glibc patch that implements sched_getcpu on top of this.
Testing on a POWER7:

baseline: 538 cycles
vdso:      30 cycles
