Hi Linus !

Here are a few more fixes for powerpc. Some are regressions, the rest is
simple/obvious/nasty enough that I deemed it good to go now.

Here's also step one of deprecating legacy iSeries support: we are
removing it from the main defconfig.

Nobody seems to be using it anymore and the code is nasty to maintain,
(involves horrible hacks in various low level areas of the kernel) so we
plan to actually rip it out at some point. For now let's just avoid
building it by default. Stephen will proceed to do the actual removal
later (probably 3.4 or 3.5).

Cheers,
Ben.
