Some assembly code in head_fsl_booke.S hard-coded the size of struct tlbcam to 20 when it indexed the TLBCAM table. Anyone changing the size of struct
tlbcam would not know to expect that.

The kernel already has a system to get the size of C structures into
assembly language files, asm-offsets, so let's use it.

The definition of the struct gets moved to a header, so that asm- offsets.c
can include it.

I don't mean to be overly picky, but your patch subjects and changelog
descriptions are a bit wrong. This series pertains to FSL BookE chips,
not BookE in general.  There are other variants of BookE, such as 4xx.

If you could keep that in mind for future revisions, I'd appreciate
it.  Something like:

[PATCH] powerpc/fsl-booke:

or something similar would be a bit more correct.  Unless you really
are changing something global to all BookE processors (which is sort of
rare at the moment).

I fixed this in the actually commit ;)
