sync performs a strict superset of the functions of eieio, so using both
is redundant. While here, expand bus barriers to all bus_space operations,
since many drivers do not correctly use bus_space_barrier().
In principle, we can also replace sync just with eieio, for a significant
performance increase, but it remains to be seen whether any poorly-written
drivers currently depend on the side effects of sync to properly function.

is that it possible to take an SLB fault at any time, on any address, for
any reason, at any point in the kernel.
This lets us do two important things. First, it removes the (soft) 16 GB RAM
ceiling on PPC64 as well as any architectural limitations on KVA space.
Second, it lets the kernel tolerate poorly designed hypervisors that
have a tendency to fail to restore the SLB properly after a hypervisor

instead of a PCPU field for curthread. This averts a race on SMP systems
with a high interrupt rate where the thread looking up the value of
curthread could be preempted and migrated between obtaining the PCPU
pointer and reading the value of pc_curthread, resulting in curthread being
observed to be the current thread on the thread's original CPU. This played
merry havoc with the system, in particular with mutexes. Many thanks to
jhb for helping me work this one out.

Renovate and improve the AIM Open Firmware support:

- Fix memory detection on IBM LPARs and systems with more than one /memory

Rewrite atomic operations for powerpc in order to achieve the following:
- Produce a type-clean implementation (in terms of functions arguments

- Fix errors with _long() atomics where they ended up with the wrong

- Follow the sys/type.h specifics that define the numbered types starting
from standard C types.
- Let _ptr() version to not auto-magically cast arguments, but leave

That is also reflected when building atomic operations, as the
size-bounded types are built from the base C types.
However, powerpc does the inverse thing, leading to a serie of nasty
bugs.
Cleanup the atomic implementation by defining as base the base C type
version and depending on them, appropriately.

already supported nested PICs, but was limited to having a nested
AT-PIC only. With G5 support the need for nested OpenPIC controllers
needed to be added. This was done the wrong way and broke the MPC8555
eval system in the process.
OFW, as well as FDT, describe the interrupt routing in terms of a
controller and an interrupt pin on it. This needs to be mapped to a
flat and global resource: the IRQ. The IRQ is the same as the PCI
intline and as such needs to be representable in 8 bits. Secondly,
ISA support pretty much dictates that IRQ 0-15 should be reserved
for ISA interrupts, because of the internal workins of south bridges.
Both were broken.
This change reverts revision 209298 for a big part and re-implements
it simpler. In particular:
o The id() method of the PIC I/F is removed again. It's not needed.
o The openpic_attach() function has been changed to take the OFW
or FDT phandle of the controller as a second argument. All bus
attachments that previously used openpic_attach() as the attach
method of the device I/F now implement as bus-specific method
and pass the phandle_t to the renamed openpic_attach().
o Change powerpc_register_pic() to take a few more arguments. In
particular:
- Pass the number of IPIs specificly. The number of IRQs carved
out for a PIC is the sum of the number of int. pins and IPIs.
- Pass a flag indicating whether the PIC is an AT-PIC or not.
This tells the interrupt framework whether to assign IRQ 0-15
or some other range.
o Until we implement proper multi-pass bus enumeration, we have to
handle the case where we need to map from PIC+pin to IRQ *before*
the PIC gets registered. This is done in a similar way as before,
but rather than carving out 256 IRQs per PIC, we carve out 128
IRQs (124 pins + 4 IPIs). This is supposed to handle the G5 case,
but should really be fixed properly using multiple passes.
o Have the interrupt framework set root_pic in most cases and not
put that burden in PIC drivers (for the most part).
o Remove powerpc_ign_lookup() and replace it with powerpc_get_irq().
Remove IGN_SHIFT, INTR_INTLINE and INTR_IGN.
Related to the above, fix the Freescale PCI controller driver, broken
by the FDT code. Besides not attaching properly, bus numbers were
assigned improperly and enumeration was broken in general. This
prevented the AT PIC from being discovered and interrupt routing to
work properly. Consequently, the ata(4) controller stopped functioning.
Fix the driver, and FDT PCI support, enough to get the MPC8555CDS
going again. The FDT PCI code needs a whole lot more work.
No breakages are expected, but lackiong G5 hardware, it's possible
that there are unpleasant side-effects. At least MPC85xx support is
back to where it was 7 months ago -- it's amazing how badly support
can be broken in just 7 months...
