This adds support for 16k and 64k page sizes on PowerPC 44x processors.
The PGDIR table is much smaller than a page when using 16k or 64k
pages (512 and 32 bytes respectively) so we allocate the PGDIR with
kzalloc() instead of __get_free_pages().
One PTE table covers rather a large memory area when using 16k or 64k
pages (32MB or 512MB respectively), so we can easily put FIXMAP and
PKMAP in the area covered by one PTE table.

Manual merge of:

There are two issues when we enable CONFIG_RELOCATABLE. The first is due
to the fact that phys_addr_t is now defined in linux/types.h. The second
is due to the fact that the DMA code changes expose memstart_addr to
prom_init.c

m32r: fix build due to notify_cpu_starting() change
powerpc: fix linux-next build failure

Today's linux-next build (powerpc allyesconfig) failed like this:
In file included from arch/powerpc/include/asm/mmu-hash64.h:17,
from arch/powerpc/include/asm/mmu.h:8,

arch/powerpc/include/asm/page.h:77: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'kernstart_addr'
Caused by commit 600715dcdf567c86f8b2c6173fcfb4b873e25a19 ("generic: add
phys_addr_t for holding physical addresses") from the tip-core tree.
This only fails if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set.
So include that instead of asm/types.h in asm/page.h for
the CONFIG_RELOCATABLE case.

This implements CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for 64-bit by making the kernel as
a position-independent executable (PIE) when it is set. This involves
processing the dynamic relocations in the image in the early stages of
booting, even if the kernel is being run at the address it is linked at,
since the linker does not necessarily fill in words in the image for
which there are dynamic relocations. (In fact the linker does fill in
such words for 64-bit executables, though not for 32-bit executables,
so in principle we could avoid calling relocate() entirely when we're
running a 64-bit kernel at the linked address.)
The dynamic relocations are processed by a new function relocate(addr),
where the addr parameter is the virtual address where the image will be
run. In fact we call it twice; once before calling prom_init, and again
when starting the main kernel. This means that reloc_offset() returns
0 in prom_init (since it has been relocated to the address it is running
at), which necessitated a few adjustments.
This also changes __va and __pa to use an equivalent definition that is
simpler. With the relocatable kernel, PAGE_OFFSET and MEMORY_START are
constants (for 64-bit) whereas PHYSICAL_START is a variable (and
KERNELBASE ideally should be too, but isn't yet).
With this, relocatable kernels still copy themselves down to physical
address 0 and run there.

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.
