Subject: [09/17] powerpc/pseries: Add hcall to read 4 ptes at a time in real mode

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Michael Neuling <mikey@...ling.org>

commit f90ece28c1f5b3ec13fe481406857fe92f4bc7d1 upstream.

This adds plpar_pte_read_4_raw() which can be used read 4 PTEs from
PHYP at a time, while in real mode.

It also creates a new hcall9 which can be used in real mode.  It's the
same as plpar_hcall9 but minus the tracing hcall statistics which may
require variables outside the RMO.
