icswx is a PowerPC co-processor instruction to send data to a 
co-processor. On Book-S processors the LPAR_ID and process ID (PID) of 
the owning process are registered in the window context of the
co-processor at initial time. When the icswx instruction is executed,
the L2 generates a cop-reg transaction on PowerBus. The transaction has
no address and the processor does not perform an MMU access to 
authenticate the transaction. The coprocessor compares the LPAR_ID and
the PID included in the transaction and the LPAR_ID and PID held in the
window context to determine if the process is authorized to generate the
transaction.
