powerpc: Replace CONFIG_4xx with CONFIG_44x

Replace 4xx usage with 44x, and replace 4xx_SOC with 44x.

Also, as pointed out by Christophe, if 44x || BOOKE can be simplified to
just test BOOKE, because 44x always selects BOOKE.

Retain the CONFIG_4xx symbol, as there are drivers that use it to mean
4xx || 44x, those will need updating before CONFIG_4xx can be removed.

On pmac32_defconfig, we get a small size reduction.
On ppc64_defconfig, we get a very small size increase.

In both case that's in the noise (less than 0.1%).

powerpc: Convert flush_icache_range & friends to C

Similar to commit 22e9c88d486a
("powerpc/64: reuse PPC32 static inline flush_dcache_range()")
this patch converts the following ASM symbols to C:
flush_icache_range()
__flush_dcache_icache()
__flush_dcache_icache_phys()

This was done as we discovered a long-standing bug where the length of the
range was truncated due to using a 32 bit shift instead of a 64 bit one.

By converting these functions to C, it becomes easier to maintain.

flush_dcache_icache_phys() retains a critical assembler section as we must
ensure there are no memory accesses while the data MMU is disabled
(authored by Christophe Leroy). Since this has no external callers, it has
also been made static, allowing the compiler to inline it within
flush_dcache_icache_page().

powerpc/64: flush_inval_dcache_range() becomes flush_dcache_range()

On most arches having function flush_dcache_range(), including PPC32,
this function does a writeback and invalidation of the cache bloc.

On PPC64, flush_dcache_range() only does a writeback while
flush_inval_dcache_range() does the invalidation in addition.

In addition it looks like within arch/powerpc/, there are no PPC64
platforms using flush_dcache_range()

This patch drops the existing 64 bits version of flush_dcache_range()
and renames flush_inval_dcache_range() into flush_dcache_range().

powerpc/64s/radix: Fix missing ptesync in flush_cache_vmap

There is a typo in f1cb8f9beb ("powerpc/64s/radix: avoid ptesync after
set_pte and ptep_set_access_flags") config ifdef, which results in the
necessary ptesync not being issued after vmalloc.

This causes random kernel faults in module load, bpf load, anywhere
that vmalloc mappings are used.

After correcting the code, this survives a guest kernel booting
hundreds of times where previously there would be a crash every few
boots (I haven't noticed the crash on host, perhaps due to different
TLB and page table walking behaviour in hardware).

A memory clobber is also added to the flush, just to be sure it won't
be reordered with the pte set or the subsequent mapping access.

powerpc/64s/radix: avoid ptesync after set_pte and ptep_set_access_flags

The ISA suggests ptesync after setting a pte, to prevent a table walk
initiated by a subsequent access from missing that store and causing a
spurious fault. This is an architectual allowance that allows an
implementation's page table walker to be incoherent with the store
queue.

However there is no correctness problem in taking a spurious fault in
userspace -- the kernel copes with these at any time, so the updated
pte will be found eventually. Spurious kernel faults on vmap memory
must be avoided, so a ptesync is put into flush_cache_vmap.

On POWER9 so far I have not found a measurable window where this can
result in more minor faults, so as an optimisation, remove the costly
ptesync from pte updates. If an implementation benefits from ptesync,
it would be better to add it back in update_mmu_cache, so it's not
done for things like fork(2).

fork --fork --exec benchmark improved 5.2% (12400->13100).

powerpc: Move cpu_has_feature() to a separate file

We plan to use jump label for cpu_has_feature(). In order to implement
this we need to include the linux/jump_label.h in asm/cputable.h.

Unfortunately if we do that it leads to an include loop. The root of the
problem seems to be that reg.h needs cputable.h (for CPU_FTRs), and then
cputable.h via jump_label.h eventually pulls in hw_irq.h which needs
reg.h (for MSR_EE).

So move cpu_has_feature() to a separate file on its own.

Various e500 core have different cache architecture, so they

operation for the specific kind of e500 is selected at init time.
The callback function will flush all caches inside the current cpu.
