In __get_user_nosleep, we create an intermediate pointer for the
user address we're about to fetch. We currently don't tag this
pointer as const. Make it const, as we are simply dereferencing
it, and it's scope is limited to the __get_user_nosleep macro.

This macro is taken from s390, and allows more flexibility in
changing exception table format.
mpe: Put it in ppc_asm.h and only define one version using
stringinfy_in_c(). Add some empty definitions and headers to keep the

Pull uaccess fixes from Al Viro:
"Fixes for broken uaccess primitives - mostly lack of proper zeroing
in copy_from_user()/get_user()/__get_user(), but for several
architectures there's more (broken clear_user() on frv and
strncpy_from_user() on hexagon)"

Instead of having each caller of check_object_size() need to remember to
check for a const size parameter, move the check into check_object_size()
itself. This actually matches the original implementation in PaX, though
this commit cleans up the now-redundant builtin_const() calls in the
various architectures.

We see a large number of duplicate const errors in the user access
code when building with llvm/clang:
include/linux/pagemap.h:576:8: warning: duplicate 'const' declaration specifier
[-Wduplicate-decl-specifier]
ret = __get_user(c, uaddr);
The problem is we are doing const __typeof__(*(ptr)), which will hit the
warning if ptr is marked const.
Removing const does not seem to have any effect on GCC code generation.

At the moment, if p and x are both of the same bitwise type
(eg. __le32), get_user(x, p) produces a sparse warning.
This is because *p is loaded into a long then cast back to typeof(*p).
When typeof(*p) is a bitwise type (which is uncommon), such a cast needs
__force, otherwise sparse produces a warning.
For non-bitwise types __force should have no effect, and should not hide
any legitimate errors.
Note that we are casting to typeof(*p) not typeof(x). Even with the
cast, if x and *p are of different types we should get the warning, so I
think we are not loosing the ability to detect any actual errors.
virtio would like to use bitwise types with get_user() so fix these
spurious warnings by adding __force.

The only reason uaccess routines might sleep
is if they fault. Make this explicit.
Arnd Bergmann suggested that the following code
if (!is_kernel_addr((unsigned long)__pu_addr))
might_fault();
can be further simplified by adding a version of might_fault
that includes the kernel addr check.
Will be considered as a further optimization in future.

git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm
Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places

one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
