This patch adds full cell iommu support (and iommu disabled mode).
It implements mapping/unmapping of iommu pages on demand using the
standard powerpc iommu framework. It also supports running with
iommu disabled for machines with less than 2GB of memory. (The
default is off in that case, though it can be forced on with the
kernel command line option iommu=force).

This patch completely refactors DMA operations for 64 bits powerpc. 32 bits
is untouched for now.
We use the new dev_archdata structure to add the dma operations pointer
and associated data to struct device. While at it, we also add the OF node
pointer and numa node. In the future, we might want to look into merging
that with pci_dn as well.
The old vio, pci-iommu and pci-direct DMA ops are gone. They are now replaced
by a set of generic iommu and direct DMA ops (non PCI specific) that can be
used by bus types. The toplevel implementation is now inline.

The 10Gigabit ethernet device drivers appear to be able to chew
up all 256MB of TCE mappings on pSeries systems, as evidenced by
numerous error messages:
iommu_alloc failed, tbl c0000000010d5c48 vaddr c0000000d875eff0 npages 1
Some experimentation indicates that this is essentially because
one 1500 byte ethernet MTU gets mapped as a 64K DMA region when
the large 64K pages are enabled. Thus, it doesn't take much to
exhaust all of the available DMA mappings for a high-speed card.
This patch changes the iommu allocator to work with its own
unique, distinct page size. Although the patch is long, its
actually quite simple: it just #defines a distinct IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE
and then uses this in all the places that matter.
As a side effect, it also dramatically improves network performance
on platforms with H-calls on iommu translation inserts/removes (since
we no longer call it 16 times for a 1500 bytes packet when the iommu HW
is still 4k).
In the future, we might want to make the IOMMU_PAGE_SIZE a variable
in the iommu_table instance, thus allowing support for different HW
page sizes in the iommu itself.

It seems that the occasional data corruption observed with the tg3
driver wasn't due to missing barriers after all, but rather seems to
be due to the DART (= IOMMU) in the U4 northbridge reading stale
IOMMU table entries from memory due to a race. This fixes it by
making the CPU read the entry back from memory before using it.

Turn on the DART already at 1GB. This is needed because of crippled
devices in some systems, i.e. Airport Extreme cards, only supporting
30-bit DMA addresses.
Otherwise, users with between 1 and 2GB of memory will need to manually
enable it with iommu=force, and that's no good.
Some simple performance tests show that there's a slight impact of
enabling DART, but it's in the 1-3% range (kernel build with disk I/O
as well as over NFS).
iommu=off can still be used for those who don't want to deal with the
overhead (and don't need it for any devices).

Currently most callers of lmb_alloc() don't check if it worked or not, if it
ever does weird bad things will probably happen. The few callers who do check
just panic or BUG_ON.
So make lmb_alloc() panic internally, to catch bugs at the source. The few
callers who did check the result no longer need to.
The only caller that did anything interesting with the return result was
careful_allocation(). For it we create __lmb_alloc_base() which _doesn't_ panic
automatically, a little messy, but passable.

The patch enabling the new G5's with U4 broke initialization of the DART
driver, causing it to trigger a BUG_ON for a case that is actually
valid. This patch fixes it:

This adds some very basic support for the new machines, including the
Quad G5 (tested), and other new dual core based machines and iMac G5
iSight (untested). This is still experimental ! There is no thermal
control yet, there is no proper handing of MSIs, etc.. but it
boots, I have all 4 cores up on my machine. Compared to the previous
version of this patch, this one adds DART IOMMU support for the U4
chipset and thus should work fine on setups with more than 2Gb of RAM.
