commit 41dd03a9 may cause Oops in rtas_stop_self().

The reason is that the rtas_args was moved into stack space. For a box
with more that 4GB RAM, the stack could easily be outside 32bit range,
but RTAS is 32bit.

So the patch moves rtas_args away from stack by adding static before
it.

This results in oddball messages at boot on other platforms telling us
that CPU hotplug isn't supported even when it is.

<title>powerpc/le: Ensure that the 'stop-self' RTAS token is handled correctly</title>

Currently we're storing a host endian RTAS token in
rtas_stop_self_args.token.  We then pass that directly to rtas.  This is
fine on big endian however on little endian the token is not what we
expect.

This will typically result in hitting:
	panic("Alas, I survived.\n");

To fix this we always use the stop-self token in host order and always
convert it to be32 before passing this to rtas.

As a part of pseries_idle backend driver cleanup to make
the code common to both pseries and powernv platforms, it
is necessary to move the backend-driver code to drivers/cpuidle.

As a pre-requisite for that, it is essential to move plpar_wrapper.h
to include/asm.

<title>powerpc: Stop using non-architected shared_proc field in lppaca</title>

Although the shared_proc field in the lppaca works today, it is
not architected. A shared processor partition will always have a non
zero yield_count so use that instead. Create a wrapper so users
don't have to know about the details.

In order for older kernels to continue to work on KVM we need
to set the shared_proc bit. While here, remove the ugly bitfield.

The pseries CPU hotplug code uses cede_processor without properly
synchronizing the SW and HW interrupt enable state. This fixes
it using the same helpers that were written for the idle code.

<title>powerpc+of: Add of node/property notification chain for adds and removes</title>

<id>1cf3d8b3d24cd383ddfd5442c83ec5c355ffc2f7</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch moves the notification chain for updates to the device tree
from the powerpc/pseries code to the base OF code. This makes this
functionality available to all architectures.

Additionally the notification chain is updated to allow notifications
for property add/remove/update. To make this work a pointer to a new
struct (of_prop_reconfig) is passed to the routines in the notification chain.
The of_prop_reconfig property contains a pointer to the node containing the
property and a pointer to the property itself. In the case of property
updates, the property pointer refers to the new property.
