Christophe Leroy a1f3ae3fe8 powerpc/32: Use stmw/lmw for registers save/restore in asm
arch/powerpc/Makefile activates -mmultiple on BE PPC32 configs
in order to use multiple word instructions in functions entry/exit.

The patch does the same for the asm parts, for consistency.

On processors like the 8xx on which insn fetching is pretty slow,
this speeds up registers save/restore.

[mpe: PPC32 is BE only, so drop the endian checks]

Stephen Rothwell 46f5221049 powerpc: Remove second definition of STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD
Since STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD is defined in asm/ptrace.h and that
is ASSEMBER safe, we can just include that instead of going via
asm-offsets.h.

Anton Vorontsov 322b439455 powerpc: Prepare xmon_save_regs for use with kdump
Today the arch/powerpc/xmon/setjmp.S file contains only the
xmon_save_regs function.  We want to use it for kdump purposes, so
let's move the file into arch/powerpc/kernel/ and give the function a
more generic name (ppc_save_regs).
