5e696617c4 powerpc/mm: Split mmu_context handling
This splits the mmu_context handling between 32-bit hash based
processors, 64-bit hash based processors and everybody else.  This is
preliminary work for adding SMP support for BookE processors.

4ee5f55175 powerpc: Fix ppc32 mm_struct CPU tracking in SMP
The 32-bit hash code didn't need it so far so we don't update
mm->cpu_vm_mask on context switch.  This however will break when we
merge the RCU based page table freeing patch and other upcoming 32-bit
embedded SMP work, so this adds the update.

3fadc52b2c powerpc: Fix loss of vdso on fork on 32-bit
When we fork, init_new_context() improperly resets the vdso_base
of the new context to 0.  That means that the new process loses
access to the vdso for signal trampolines.

The initialization should be unnecessary anyway as the context
on a fresh mm should be 0 in the first place and binfmt_elf
will initialize that value for a newly loaded process.

b8b572e101 powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm
from include/asm-powerpc.  This is the result of a

mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
