system can hang when large FDT is in use

[int0dster_gmail.com]

Summary

kernel maps only one page of FDT. When FDT is more than one page in size, data TLB miss occurs on memmove()
when FDT is moved to kernel storage (sys/powerpc/booke/booke_machdep.c, booke_init())

Test Plan

1. Build kernel, create uImage

mkimage -A ppc -O linux -e 0x4001000 -a 0x3ffffc0 -C none -d /tftpboot/fbsd /tftpboot/fbsd.uImage

2. Boot uImage on the QorIQ system

> tftpboot 0x3ffffc0 k1

Using FM1@DTSEC3 device
TFTP from server 192.168.2.23; our IP address is 192.168.2.22
Filename 'k1'.
Load address: 0x3ffffc0
Loading: #############

1. ############# ############# ############# ############# ############# ############# ############# ##############

	 3.1 MiB/s

done
Bytes transferred = 9380388 (8f2224 hex)

3. Boot the image, ensure that kernel successfully reaches mi_startup() (you shall see greeting

when it does)

Bytes transferred = 9380388 (8f2224 hex)

> bootm 0x3ffffc0 - 0xec800000

Overall, good work. Just a couple nits and it'll be fine. This should definitely fix the hang problem I've seen booting from ubldr on one of my boards, so I'm excited about it.

This probably belongs with D7604, and should be conditional on EARLY_PRINTF. Also, if this line does go in, the PA argument should be a compile-time value, settable in the conf file. I can help you with that, but will comment on it in the D7604 review.

This will only work right if the mapping completely encloses the region, it won't work if the region spans multiple TLB mappings, which is possible to do in pmap_early_io_map(). Since it's only used in one location right now, I guess it's okay, but just add a comment here that it should be fixed in the future.

Revision 2 of the initial patch. Addresses reviewer comments.

Looks good, I'll see if I can commit it tonight.

I put a few minutes of thought into the pmap_early_io_unmap() problem, and I think it'll be pretty easy to address, but it'll need either a new function (good idea) or some inline asm, to search for each TLB entry by VA. It's more complicated, and not needed right now, but something to think about for later on.
