On POWER6 and POWER7 if the input operand to an instruction is a
denormalised single precision binary floating point value we can take
a denormalisation exception where it's expected that the hypervisor
(HV=1) will fix up the inputs before the instruction is run.

This adds code to handle this denormalisation exception for POWER6 and
POWER7.

It also add a CONFIG_PPC_DENORMALISATION option and sets it in
pseries/ppc64_defconfig.

This is useful on bare metal systems only.  Based on patch from Milton

The ns_cgroup is an annoying cgroup at the namespace / cgroup frontier and
leads to some problems:

  * cgroup creation is out-of-control
  * cgroup name can conflict when pids are looping
  * it is not possible to have a single process handling a lot of
    namespaces without falling in a exponential creation time
  * we may want to create a namespace without creating a cgroup

  The ns_cgroup was replaced by a compatibility flag 'clone_children',
  where a newly created cgroup will copy the parent cgroup values.
  The userspace has to manually create a cgroup and add a task to
  the 'tasks' file.

This patch removes the ns_cgroup as suggested in the following thread:

https://lists.linux-foundation.org/pipermail/containers/2009-June/018616.html

The 'cgroup_clone' function is removed because it is no longer used.

This is a userspace-visible change.  Commit 45531757 ("cgroup: notify
ns_cgroup deprecated") (merged into 2.6.27) caused the kernel to emit a
printk warning users that the feature is planned for removal.  Since that
time we have heard from XXX users who were affected by this.

The pseries and ppc64 defconfigs have drifted apart over the years. Reduce

Now we have high res timers there is less of a reason for a high HZ value.
Furthermore I think there a few reasons we should reduce HZ to 100:

- Timer interrupt overhead. While this overhead is small, there are
  applications that are very sensitive to jitter (eg some HPC apps).

- Issues with the timer wheel code. When coming out of NO_HZ idle we work our
  way through the timer code one tick at a time.  If we have been idle a long
  time, this adds up - I sometimes see milliseconds of time spent in that
  loop.

  Long term we should fix the timer wheel algorithm, but for now if we reduce
  HZ then we reduce the amount of work the timer code has to do when coming
  out of idle.
