powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc. This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch of Kconfig files. It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm, arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac. This is enough to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc. For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel. This makes some minor changes to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc. The boot directory is still not merged. That's going to be interesting. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

powerpc: replace #include <asm/export.h> with #include <linux/export.h> Commit ddb5cdbafaaa ("kbuild: generate KSYMTAB entries by modpost") deprecated <asm/export.h>, which is now a wrapper of <linux/export.h>. Replace #include <asm/export.h> with #include <linux/export.h>. After all the <asm/export.h> lines are converted, <asm/export.h> and <asm-generic/export.h> will be removed.

powerpc/lib: Adjust .balign inside string functions for PPC32 commit 87a156fb18fe1 ("Align hot loops of some string functions") degraded the performance of string functions by adding useless nops A simple benchmark on an 8xx calling 100000x a memchr() that matches the first byte runs in 41668 TB ticks before this patch and in 35986 TB ticks after this patch. So this gives an improvement of approx 10% Another benchmark doing the same with a memchr() matching the 128th byte runs in 1011365 TB ticks before this patch and 1005682 TB ticks after this patch, so regardless on the number of loops, removing those useless nops improves the test by 5683 TB ticks.

[POWERPC] Add hand-coded assembly strcmp We have an assembly version of strncmp for the bootwrapper, but not for the kernel, so we end up using the C version in the kernel. This takes the strncmp code from the bootup and copies it to the kernel proper, adding two instructions so it copes correctly with len==0.

powerpc: Fix string library functions The powerpc strncmp implementation does not correctly handle a zero length, despite the claim in 0119536cd314ef95553604208c25bc35581f7f0a (Add hand-coded assembly strcmp). Additionally, all the length arguments are size_t, not int, so use PPC_LCMPI and eq instead of cmpwi and le throughout.

powerpc: Fix handling of strncmp with zero len Commit 0119536c, which added the assembly version of strncmp to powerpc, mentions that it adds two instructions to the version from boot/string.S to allow it to handle len=0. Unfortunately, it doesn't always return 0 when that is the case. The length is passed in r5, but the return value is passed back in r3. In certain cases, this will happen to work. Otherwise it will pass back the address of the first string as the return value. This patch lifts the len <= 0 handling code from memcpy to handle that case.
