Please help to pick this patch up. It addresses a great performance regression
for RAID offloading.

Interesting, I didn't think that couple of percent of pwm would be
noticable (there's probably too much ambiant noise in the lab here for
me to notice).

This fuzzing is what makes it much more annoying.

Add routines to allow Linux based bootloaders to create and/or
modify highmem region info in the PS3 system repository where
it can be retrived by later boot stages.

This support will allow Linux based bootloaders to manage data

Hi Ben,
I queued up the PS3 updates I have for v3.5. Please pull.

Real mode memory can be limited and runs out quickly as memory is allocated
during kernel startup. Having the highmem available sooner fixes this.
This change simplifies the memory management code by converting from hotplug
memory to logical memory blocks.

Add repository helper routines to read highmem region info.
Bootloaders that preallocate highmem regions must place the
region info into the repository at these well known nodes.
These routines allow second stage kernles to read the region
info from those nodes.

Rename these repo routines:

Use any preallocated highmem region setup by the bootloader.
This implementation only checks for the existance of a single
region at region_index=0.
This feature allows the bootloader to preallocate highmem
regions and pass the region locations to the kernel through
the repository. Preallocated r

The old driver keeps the cpu fans running at 300 rpm (lowest speed?)
for much longer when the cpus are put busy. Only when the cpus are back
idle it speeds them up to 1200 rpm or more for some time depending on
