71e3c3083b sys/powerpc: further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

1cd30eb6dd Deallocate any leftover page table entries in the LPAR at boot. This
prevents contamination from a previous kernel (e.g. after shutdown -r).

17763042e4 The POWER7 has only 32 SLB slots instead of 64, like other supported
64-bit PowerPC CPUs. Add infrastructure to support variable numbers of
SLB slots and move the user slot from 63 to 0, so that it is always
available.

54c562081f Restructure the way the copyin/copyout segment is stored to prevent a
concurrency bug. Since all SLB/SR entries were invalidated during an
exception, a decrementer exception could cause the user segment to be
invalidated during a copyin()/copyout() without a thread switch that
would cause it to be restored from the PCB, potentially causing the
operation to continue on invalid memory. This is now handled by explicit
restoration of segment 12 from the PCB on 32-bit systems and a check in
the Data Segment Exception handler on 64-bit.

While here, cause copyin()/copyout() to check whether the requested
user segment is already installed, saving some pipeline flushes, and
fix the synchronization primitives around the mtsr and slbmte
instructions to prevent accessing stale segments.

3b4b38304e Improve hash coverage for kernel page table entries by modifying the kernel
ESID -> VSID map function. This makes ZFS run stably on PowerPC under
heavy loads (repeated simultaneous SVN checkouts and updates).

c3e289e1ce MFppc64:
Kernel sources for 64-bit PowerPC, along with build-system changes to keep
32-bit kernels compiling (build system changes for 64-bit kernels are
coming later). Existing 32-bit PowerPC kernel configurations must be
updated after this change to specify their architecture.
