f048aace29 powerpc/mm: Add SMP support to no-hash TLB handling
This commit moves the whole no-hash TLB handling out of line into a
new tlb_nohash.c file, and implements some basic SMP support using
IPIs and/or broadcast tlbivax instructions.

Note that I'm using local invalidations for D->I cache coherency.

At worst, if another processor is trying to execute the same and
has the old entry in its TLB, it will just take a fault and re-do
the TLB flush locally (it won't re-do the cache flush in any case).

df3b861155 powerpc: Add a local_flush_tlb_page to handle kmap_atomic invalidates
The tlb invalidates in kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic can be called from
IRQ context, however they are only local invalidates (on the processor
that the kmap was called on).  In the future we want to use IPIs to
do tlb invalidates this causes issue since flush_tlb_page() is considered
a broadcast invalidate.

Add local_flush_tlb_page() as a non-broadcast invalidate and use it in
kmap_atomic() since we don't have enough information in the
flush_tlb_page() call to determine its local.

9bf2b5cdc5 powerpc: Fixes for CONFIG_PTE_64BIT for SMP support
There are some minor issues with support 64-bit PTEs on a 32-bit processor
when dealing with SMP.

* We need to order the stores in set_pte_at to make sure the flag word
  is set second.
* Change pte_clear to use pte_update so only the flag word is cleared
* Added a WARN_ON to set_pte_at to ensure the pte isn't present for
  the 64-bit pte/SMP case (to ensure our assumption of this fact).

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.
