By default the OpenPIC on PWRficient will bias to one core (since that

since setting an interrupt to be delivered to either core doesn't really

Some PWRficient-based boards have a NMI button that's wired up to a GPIO
as interrupt source. By configuring the openpic accordingly, these get
delivered as a machine check with high priority, instead of as an external
interrupt.
The device tree contains a property "nmi-source" in the openpic node
for these systems, and it's the (hwirq) source for the input.
Also, for these interrupts, the IACK is read from another register than
the regular (MCACK instead), but they are EOI'd as usual. So implement
said function for the mpic driver.
Finally, move a couple of external function defines to include/ instead
of local under sysdev. Being able to mask/unmask and eoi directly saves
us from setting up a dummy irq handler that will never be called.

is still asserted by the device, even if the interrupt is already masked.
So, to really de-assert the interrupt we need to de-assert the external
source first *and* ack it on UIC then. The handle_level_irq() function
masks and ack's the interrupt with mask_ack callback prior to calling
the actual ISR and unmasks it at the end. So, to use it with UIC interrupts
we need to ack level irqs in the unmask callback instead, after the ISR
has de-asserted the external interrupt source. Even if we ack the interrupt
that we didn't handle (unmask/ack it at the end of the handler, while
next irq is already pending) it will not de-assert the irq, untill we
de-assert its exteral source.

[POWERPC] Optimize counting distinct entries in the relocation sections
When a module has relocation sections with tens of thousands of

The sore point is the count_relocs() function which is called as part
of the architecture specific module loading processing path:
Here count_relocs is being called to find out how many distinct
targets of R_PPC_REL24 relocations there are, since each distinct
target needs a PLT entry or a stub created for it.
The previous counting algorithm has O(n^2) complexity. Basically two
solutions were proposed on the e-mail list: a hash based approach and
a sort based approach.
The hash based approach is the fastest (O(n)) but the has it needs
additional memory and for certain corner cases it could take lots of
memory due to the degeneration of the hash. One such proposal was
submitted here:
The sort based approach is slower (O(n * log n + n)) but if the
sorting is done "in place" it doesn't need additional memory.
This has O(n + n * log n) complexity with no additional memory
requirements.
