IBM Cell Blades used the Cell processor and the "blade" server form
factor. They were sold as models QS20, QS21 & QS22 from roughly 2006 to
2012 [1]. They were used in a few supercomputers (eg. Roadrunner) that
have since been dismantled, and were not that widely used otherwise.
Until recently I still had a working QS22, which meant I was able to
keep the platform support working, but unfortunately that machine has
now died.
I'm not aware of any users. If there is a user that wants to keep the
upstream support working, we can look at bringing some of the code back
as appropriate.
See previous discussion at [2].
Remove the top-level config symbol PPC_IBM_CELL_BLADE, and then
the dependent symbols PPC_CELL_NATIVE, PPC_CELL_COMMON, CBE_RAS,
PPC_IBM_CELL_RESETBUTTON, PPC_IBM_CELL_POWERBUTTON, CBE_THERM, and
AXON_MSI. Then remove the associated C files and headers, and trim
unused header content (some is shared with PS3).
Note that PPC_CELL_COMMON sounds like it would build code shared with
PS3, but it does not. It's a relic from when code was shared between the
Blade support and QPACE support.
Most of the primary authors already have CREDITS entries, with the
exception of Christian, so add one for him.

These are declared in ras.h and defined in ras.c so remove them from
pervasive.h

This patch adds a config option for the sysreset_hack used for
IBM Cell blades. The code is moves from pervasive.c into ras.c and
gets it's own init method.

This is a first version of support for the Cell BE "Reliability,
Availability and Serviceability" features.
It doesn't yet handle some of the RAS interrupts (the ones described in
iic_is/iic_irr), I'm still working on a proper way to expose these. They
are essentially a cascaded controller by themselves (sic !) though I may
just handle them locally to the iic driver. I need also to sync with
David Erb on the way he hooked in the performance monitor interrupt.
So that's all for 2.6.17 and I'll do more work on that with my rework of
the powerpc interrupt layer that I'm hacking on at the moment.

This patch enables support for pause(0) power management state
for the Cell Broadband Processor, which is import for power efficient
operation. The pervasive infrastructure will in the future enable
us to introduce more functionality specific to the Cell's
pervasive unit.
