[Skiboot] [RFC v1 0/4] Enable stop4 idle state

[Akshay Adiga]

The following patch series enabled the infrastructure to support deeper
idle states like STOP4 and STOP11 on POWER9 platform.

When cpu enters stop4 or deeper state it losses few critical hypervisor
sprs. In the POWER9 platform stop-api provides interface for opal to call
into low level platform firmware/microcode to configure and setup various
actions on wakeup from deep idle state. 

Some SPRs that have implicit value like HRMOR are directly set from
OPAL, while other are left to be configured from Linux using opal
calls.

p9 stop api is used to restore these hypervisor sprs with
correct values. Sprs like HRMOR is configured from skiboot,
where as LPCR, HID and MSR are configured by kernel. Kernel
uses opal_slw_set_reg() to configure these sprs.

Integration of stop-api framework from hostboot require few header
and definitions to be resolved, and hence this patch depends on 
"[RFC] Add support for glibc style endianess detection
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/758189/

Patch 1: Add p9_stop_api from hostboot code.
Patch 2: Enable  opal_slw_set_reg() for power9
Patch 3: Configure HRMOR restore
Patch 4: Expose stop4 in device-tree as a idle state with stateloss
