This patch adds generic io{read|write}64[be]{_lo_hi|_hi_lo} macros if
they are not already defined by the architecture. (As they are provided
by the generic iomap library).
The patch also points io{read|write}64[be] to the variant specified by the
header name.
This is because new drivers are encouraged to use ioreadXX, et al instead
of readX[1], et al -- and mixing ioreadXX with readq is pretty ugly.

Fix an asymmetry in the io{read|write}XXbe functions in that the
big-endian variants make use of the raw io accessors while the
little-endian variants use the regular accessors. Some architectures
implement barriers to order against both spinlocks and DMA accesses
and for these case, the big-endian variant of the API would not be
protected.
Thus, change the mmio_XXXXbe macros to use the appropriate swab() function
wrapping the regular accessor. This is similar to what was done for PIO.
When this code was originally written, barriers in the IO accessors were
not common and the accessors simply wrapped the raw functions in a
conversion to CPU endianness. Since then, barriers have been added in
some architectures and are now missing in the big endian variant of the
API.
This also manages to silence a few sparse warnings that check
for using the correct endian types which the original code did
not annotate correctly.

This patch introduces a new API to get requirements and configure the
interconnect buses across the entire chipset to fit with the current
demand.
The API is using a consumer/provider-based model, where the providers are
the interconnect buses and the consumers could be various drivers.
The consumers request interconnect resources (path) between endpoints and
set the desired constraints on this data flow path. The providers receive
requests from consumers and aggregate these requests for all master-slave
pairs on that path. Then the providers configure each node along the path
to support a bandwidth that satisfies all bandwidth requests that cross
through that node. The topology could be complicated and multi-tiered and
is SoC specific.

Adopt nvram module to reduce code duplication. This means CONFIG_NVRAM
becomes available to PPC64 builds. Previously it was only available to
PPC32 builds because it depended on CONFIG_GENERIC_NVRAM.
The IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl as implemented on PPC64 validates the
offset returned by pmac_get_partition(). Do the same in the nvram module.
Note that the old PPC32 generic_nvram module lacked this test.
So when CONFIG_PPC32 && CONFIG_PPC_PMAC, the IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl
would have returned 0 (always). But when CONFIG_PPC64 && CONFIG_PPC_PMAC,
the IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl would have returned -1 (which is -EPERM)
when the requested partition was not found.
With this patch, the result is now -EINVAL on both PPC32 and PPC64 when
the requested PowerMac NVRAM partition is not found. This is a userspace-
visible change, in the non-existent partition case, which would be in
an error path for an IOC_NVRAM_GET_OFFSET ioctl syscall.

This patch addresses inconsistencies in Mac framebuffer drivers and their
use of Kconfig symbols relating to NVRAM, so PPC64 can use CONFIG_NVRAM.
The defined(CONFIG_NVRAM) condition is replaced with the weaker
IS_REACHABLE(CONFIG_NVRAM) condition, like atari_scsi.
Macintosh framebuffer drivers use default settings for color mode and
video mode that are found in NVRAM. On PCI Macs, MacOS stores display
settings in the Name Registry (NR) partition in NVRAM*. On NuBus Macs,
there is no NR partition and MacOS stores display mode settings in PRAM**.
Early-model Macs are the ones most likely to benefit from these settings,
since they are more likely to have a fixed-frequency monitor connected to
the built-in framebuffer device. Moreover, a single NV_CMODE value and
a single NV_VMODE value provide for only one display.
The NV_CMODE and NV_VMODE constants are apparently offsets into the NR
partition for Old World machines. This also suggests that these defaults
are not useful on later models. The NR partition seems to be optional on
New World machines. CONFIG_NVRAM cannot be enabled on PPC64 at present.
It is safe to say that NVRAM support in PowerMac fbdev drivers is only
applicable to CONFIG_PPC32 so make this condition explicit. This means
matroxfb driver won't crash on PPC64 when CONFIG_NVRAM becomes available
there.
For imsttfb, add the missing CONFIG_NVRAM test to prevent a build failure,
since PPC64 does not implement nvram_read_byte(). Also add a missing
machine_is(powermac) check. Change the inconsistent dependency on
CONFIG_PPC and the matching #ifdef tests to CONFIG_PPC_PMAC.
For valkyriefb, to improve clarity and consistency with the other PowerMac
fbdev drivers, test for CONFIG_PPC_PMAC instead of !CONFIG_MAC. Remove a
bogus comment regarding PRAM.

Refactor the RTC "CMOS" NVRAM functions so that they can be used as

operations to the nvram read/write operations. This makes the misc device
implementation more generic.
This preserves the locking mechanism such that "read if checksum valid"
and "write and update checksum" remain atomic operations.
Some platforms implement byte-range read/write methods which are similar
to file_operations struct methods. Other platforms provide only
byte-at-a-time methods. The former are more efficient but may be

On powerpc, setting CONFIG_NVRAM=n builds a kernel with no NVRAM support.
Setting CONFIG_NVRAM=m enables the /dev/nvram misc device module without
enabling NVRAM support in drivers. Setting CONFIG_NVRAM=y enables the
misc device (built-in) and also enables NVRAM support in drivers.
m68k shares the valkyriefb driver with powerpc, and since that driver uses
NVRAM, it is affected by CONFIG_ATARI_SCSI, because of the use of
"select NVRAM". We can avoid the "select" here, but drivers still have
to interpret the CONFIG_NVRAM symbol consistently regardless of platform.
In this patch and the subsequent fbdev driver patch, the convention is
adopted across all relevant platforms whereby NVRAM functionality gets
enabled in a given device driver when the nvram misc device is built-in
or when both drivers are modules.
