[PATCH v2 0/3] ieee1275: find and claim more memory

[Daniel Axtens]

I've posted a couple of RFC patches that attempted to claim some more
memory on ieee1275 platforms, which is necessary for the verifiers to
do their work. The RFCs were a bit unsatisfactory and also it turns
out they broke in some corner cases.

This, I believe, is a proper, upstream-worthy solution for getting
more memory on ieee1275 platforms and powerpc-ieee1275 in
particular. It is also, sadly, an set of quite complex solutions, as
the commit messages for patches 2 and 3 show! It seems this is the
cost of broad platform support and backwards compatibility.

There's no reason for this to go into 2.06.

Kind regards,
Daniel

v2: fix the bug where I mixed up model and compatible.

  ieee1275: drop HEAP_MAX_ADDR, HEAP_MIN_SIZE
  ieee1275: claim more memory
  ieee1275: request memory with ibm,client-architecture-support
