powerpc/iseries: Fix early init access to lppaca
The combination of commit 8154c5d22d91cd16bd9985b0638c8957e4688d0e and 93c22703efa72c7527dbd586d1951c1f4a85fd70 Broke boot on iSeries. The problem is that iSeries very early boot code, which generates the device-tree and runs before our normal early initializations does need access the lppaca's very early, before the PACA array is initialized, and in fact even before the boot PACA has been initialized (it contains all 0's at this stage). However, the first patch above makes that code use the new llpaca_of(cpu) accessor, which itself is changed by the second patch to use the PACA array. We fix that by reverting iSeries to directly dereferencing the array. In addition, we fix all iterators in the iSeries code to always skip CPU whose number is above 63 which is the maximum size of that array and the maximum number of supported CPUs on these machines. Additionally, we make sure the boot_paca is properly initialized in our early startup code. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
