In commit 27f4488872d9 "Add OPAL takeover from PowerVM" we added support
for "takeover" on OPAL v1 machines.

This was a mode of operation where we would boot under pHyp, and query
for the presence of OPAL. If detected we would then do a special
sequence to take over the machine, and the kernel would end up running
in hypervisor mode.

OPAL v1 was never a supported product, and was never shipped outside
IBM. As far as we know no one is still using it.

Newer versions of OPAL do not use the takeover mechanism. Although the
query for OPAL should be harmless on machines with newer OPAL, we have
seen a machine where it causes a crash in Open Firmware.

The code in early_init_devtree() to copy boot_command_line into cmd_line
was added in commit 817c21ad9a1f "Get kernel command line accross OPAL
takeover", and AFAIK is only used by takeover, so should also be
removed.

EEH information fetched from OPAL need fix before using in LE environment.
To be included in sparse's endian check, declare them as __beXX and
access them by accessors.

struct OpalMemoryErrorData is passed to us from firmware, so we

When running as a powernv "host" system on P8, we need to switch
the endianness of interrupt handlers. This does it via the appropriate
call to the OPAL firmware which may result in just switching HID0:HILE
but depending on the processor version might need to do a few more
things. This call must be done early before any other processor has
been brought out of firmware.

Firmware update on PowerNV platform takes several minutes. During
this time one CPU is stuck in FW and the kernel complains about "soft
lockups".

This patch returns all secondary CPUs to firmware before starting
firmware update process.

We have two copies of code that creates an OPAL sg list. Consolidate
these into a common set of helpers and fix the endian issues.

The flash interface embedded a version number in the num_entries
field, whereas the dump interface did did not. Since versioning
wasn't added to the flash interface and it is impossible to add
this in a backwards compatible way, just remove it.

Using size_t in our APIs is asking for trouble, especially
