For booke3e _PAGE_ENDIAN is not defined. Infact what is defined
is "_PAGE_LENDIAN" which is wrong and that should be _PAGE_ENDIAN.
There are no compilation errors as
arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h defines _PAGE_ENDIAN to 0
as it is not defined anywhere.

Enable hugepages on Freescale BookE processors. This allows the kernel to
use huge TLB entries to map pages, which can greatly reduce the number of
TLB misses and the amount of TLB thrashing experienced by applications with
large memory footprints. Care should be taken when using this on FSL
processors, as the number of large TLB entries supported by the core is low
(16-64) on current processors.
The supported set of hugepage sizes include 4m, 16m, 64m, 256m, and 1g.
Page sizes larger than the max zone size are called "gigantic" pages and
must be allocated on the command line (and cannot be deallocated).
This is currently only fully implemented for Freescale 32-bit BookE
processors, but there is some infrastructure in the code for
64-bit BooKE.

Switch to using the Power ISA defined PTE format when we have a 64-bit
PTE. This makes the code handling between fsl-booke and book3e-64
similiar for TLB faults.
Additionally this lets use take advantage of the page size encodings and
full permissions that the HW PTE defines.
Also defined _PMD_PRESENT, _PMD_PRESENT_MASK, and _PMD_BAD since the
32-bit ppc arch code expects them.

Add defines for the other page sizes. Even if HW doesn't support them
we made them use them for hugetlbfs support.

This is an attempt at cleaning up a bit the way we handle execute
permission on powerpc. _PAGE_HWEXEC is gone, _PAGE_EXEC is now only
defined by CPUs that can do something with it, and the myriad of
#ifdef's in the I$/D$ coherency code is reduced to 2 cases that
hopefully should cover everything.
The logic on BookE is a little bit different than what it was though
not by much. Since now, _PAGE_EXEC will be set by the generic code
for executable pages, we need to filter out if they are unclean and
recover it. However, I don't expect the code to be more bloated than
it already was in that area due to that change.
I could boast that this brings proper enforcing of per-page execute
permissions to all BookE and 40x but in fact, we've had that now for
some time as a side effect of my previous rework in that area (and
I didn't even know it :-) We would only enable execute permission if
the page was cache clean and we would only cache clean it if we took
and exec fault. Since we now enforce that the later only work if
VM_EXEC is part of the VMA flags, we de-fact already enforce per-page
execute permissions... Unless I missed something

This adds the PTE and pgtable format definitions, along with changes
to the kernel memory map and other definitions related to implementing
support for 64-bit Book3E. This also shields some asm-offset bits that
are currently only relevant on 32-bit
We also move the definition of the "linux" page size constants to
the common mmu.h file and add a few sizes that are relevant to
embedded processors.
