[PATCH] powerpc: Extends HCALL interface for Infiniband usage

[Michal Ostrowski]

For the sake of discussion...

A generic hcall wrapper through which any hcall may be made; an
alternative to having to wwrite-out each possible combination of
numbers of input and output arguments.

Needs the obvious fix to meek Heiko's requirements (9-in, 9-out).
