Dong Aisheng 475d009429 of: Improve prom_update_property() function
prom_update_property() currently fails if the property doesn't
actually exist yet which isn't what we want. Change to add-or-update
instead of update-only, then we can remove a lot duplicated lines.

Paul Gortmaker b56eade55d powerpc: Fix up implicit stat.h users
They get it via module.h (via device.h) but we want to clean that up.
When we do, we'll get things like:

ibmebus.c:314: error: 'S_IWUSR' undeclared here (not in a function)
vio.c:972: error: 'S_IWUSR' undeclared here (not in a function)

so add in the stat header it is using explicitly in advance.

Nathan Fontenot 410bccf978 powerpc/pseries: Partition migration in the kernel
Enable partition migration in the kernel.  To do this a new sysfs file,
/sys/kernel/mobility/migration, is created.  In order to initiate a migration
the stream id (generated by the HMC managing the system) is written to this
file.

After a migration occurs, and what is the majority of this code, the device
tree needs to be updated for the new system the partition is running on. This
is done via the ibm,update-nodes and ibm,update-properties rtas calls which
return information regarding which nodes and properties of the device tree
are to be added/removed/updated.
