The e200 core is a Book-E core (similar to e500) that has a unified L1 cache
and is not cache coherent on the bus.  The e200 core also adds a separate
exception level for debug exceptions.  Part of this patch helps to cleanup a
few cases that are true for all Freescale Book-E parts, not just e500.

This patch avoids recursive crash (leading to kernel stack overflow) in
die() on CHRP/PReP machines when CONFIG_PMAC_BACKLIGHT=y.  set_backlight_*
functions are placed in pmac section, which is discarded when _machine !=
_MACH_Pmac.

The error checking for emulation of load string instructions was overly
generous and would cause certain valid forms of the instructions to be
treated as illegal.  We drop the range checking since the architecture
allows this to be boundedly undefined.  Tests on CPUs that support these
instructions appear not do cause illegal instruction traps on range errors
and just allow the execution to occur.

Thanks to Kim Phillips for debugging this and figuring out what real HW was
doing.

Moved common FPU exception handling code out of head.S so it can be used by
several of the sub-architectures that might of a full PowerPC FPU.

Also, uses new CONFIG_PPC_FPU define to fix alignment exception handling
for floating point load/store instructions to only occur if we have a
hardware FPU.

replaced declaration of EA from u32 to unsigned long - this beast is
used only to cast it to (userland) pointer and proper integer type for
that is unsigned long.

On ppc, we emulate instructions that cause alignment exceptions.  If we are
single-stepping an instruction and it causes an alignment exception, we
will currently do the next instruction as well before taking the
single-step exception.  This patch fixes that, so we take the single-step
exception after emulating the instruction.

If we should happen to get an altivec assist exception while executing in
the kernel, we will currently try to handle it and fail, and end up oopsing
with (apparently) a segfault.  (An altivec assist exception occurs for
floating-point altivec instructions with denormalized inputs or outputs if
the altivec unit is in java mode.)

This patch checks explicitly if we are in user mode and prints a useful
message if not.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
