We have several instances of inline assembly code that use the addic

in the list of clobbers (the carry bit is in the XER register).
This adds "xer" to the list of clobbers for those inline asm

This patch adds the ability to enable the digital filter in the device
tree (with the "clock-filter" boolean property) and automates the
predivider selection according to the clock-frequency and clock-filter
properties. This allows use of a wider range of I2C bus frequencies.

This patch fixes the setting of the Book-E watchdog timer interval setup
on initialization and by ioctl().
On initialization the period bits have to be masked before setting
a new period.
In WDIOC_SETTIMEOUT ioctl we have to use the correct mask.

Hi,
we build some 4xx based PMC modules in the past. These boards can
run as host ("processor PMC" or so called "monarch" mode) or as PCI endpoint
("non-monarch" mode). I would like to use the same DT (and kernel) in both
modes.
Currently I set the "status" property of the PCI node to "disabled"

I'm trying to reboot the mpc8544 and pass the reason of the reboot (two
bits would be enough). I've been told the a PowerPC cpu has usually a
few registers which will survive a soft reset.
The "normal" reboot is done via the HRESET_REQ line which is handeled

The new context may not be 16-byte aligned, so the real address of the
mcontext structure should be read from the uc_regs pointer instead of
