    powerpc ioremap_prot · a1f242ff

    This adds ioremap_prot and pte_pgprot() so that one can extract protection
    bits from a PTE and use them to ioremap_prot() (in order to support ptrace
    of VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP as per Rik's patch).
    
    This moves a couple of flag checks around in the ioremap implementations
    of arch/powerpc.  There's a side effect of allowing non-cacheable and
    non-guarded mappings on ppc32 which before would always have _PAGE_GUARDED
    set whenever _PAGE_NO_CACHE is.
    
    (standard ioremap will still set _PAGE_GUARDED, but ioremap_prot will be
    capable of setting such a non guarded mapping).
