> code
> 
> Modifications are aimed specifically at the e500mc/e5500 cpu setup code.
> Following modifications are introduced by this patchset:
> 1. Move the E.HV check to the cpu setup code. Based on this check we
> manipulte the
>    CPU_FTR_EMB_HV flag (added as a part of e500mc KVM support) in the
> cpu_spec
>    structure. We determine the presence of this feature based on the
> MMUCFG[LPIDSIZE]
>    check and decide if we can setup the E.HV mode ivors.
> 2. Merge the 32 bit cpu setup code for e500mc/e5500 and define the
> "cpu_restore"
>    routine (for e5500/e6500) only for the 64 bit case. The cpu_restore
> routine
>    is used in the 64 bit case for setting up the secondary cores.
> 3. For the 64 bit case separate out e5500 cpu_setup and cpu_restore
> functions.
>    The cpu_setup function (for the primary core) is passed the cpu_spec
> pointer,
>    which is not there in case of the cpu_restore function. Also, in our
> case
>    we will have to manipulate the CPU_FTR_EMB_HV flag on the the primary
> core.
> 4. Added CPU_FTR_EMB_HV check for e5500.
> 
> Varun Sethi (4):
>   Separate out E.HV check and ivor setup code.
>   Merge the PPC 32 e5500 setup code with e500mc setup and don't define
>   a restore routine for PPC 32.
>   Separate out restore_e5500/setup_e5500 routines and check for E.HV
>   mode before setting ivor setting code.
>   Add CPU_FTR_EMB_HV check for e5500.
