[PATCH] ppc64: clean up virtual <-> absolute code
From: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> The iSeries has an arch-specific mapping from physical <-> absolute addresses. Fortunately this is only used in a few places. However, the following arch-specific macros/functions are provided in addition to the standard macros: __a2p() __a2v() __p2a() __p2v() __v2a() __v2p() absolute_to_phys() phys_to_absolute() virt_to_absolute() absolute_to_virt() Reduce them to these, with slightly shorter names, and taking either pointers or unsigned long (as per __va and __pa) rather than making the caller cast: abs_to_phys() phys_to_abs() And helper macros: virt_to_abs() abs_to_virt() As is standard, virtual addresses are returned as void *, physical and absolute as unsigned long. Note that the change the iSeries_setup is a little subtle: ea is set to __va(pa) above, so "phys_to_abs(pa)" is the same as "virt_to_abs(ea)". Also, REALADDR is renamed to ISERIES_HV_ADDR and used in a couple of places where appropriate.
