Paul Mackerras 18120f153d MMU: Implement a vestigial partition table
This implements a 1-entry partition table, so that instead of getting
the process table base address from the PRTBL SPR, the MMU now reads
the doubleword pointed to by the PTCR register plus 8 to get the
process table base address.  The partition table entry is cached.

Having the PTCR and the vestigial partition table reduces the amount
of software change required in Linux for Microwatt support.

Jordan Niethe 737ebd92f5 tests: Add tests for the PVR
The PVR is a privileged read-only SPR. Test reading and writing in both
supervisor and problem state. In supervisor state reading returns
microwatt's assigned PVR number and writing is a noop. In problem state
both reading and writing cause privileged instruction interrupts.

Paul Mackerras 2843c99a71 MMU: Implement reading of the process table
This adds the PID register and repurposes SPR 720 as the PRTBL
register, which points to the base of the process table.  There
doesn't seem to be any point to implementing the partition table given
that we don't have hypervisor mode.

The MMU caches entry 0 of the process table internally (in pgtbl3)
plus the entry indexed by the value in the PID register (pgtbl0).
Both caches are invalidated by a tlbie[l] with RIC=2 or by a move to
PRTBL.  The pgtbl0 cache is invalidated by a move to PID.  The dTLB
and iTLB are cleared by a move to either PRTBL or PID.

Which of the two page table root pointers is used (pgtbl0 or pgtbl3)
depends on the MSB of the address being translated.  Since the segment
checking ensures that address(63) = address(62), this is sufficient to
map quadrants 0 and 3.

Paul Mackerras bee0c94fb4 tests/privileged: Update for instruction translation
Since setting MSR[PR] = 1 forces instruction translation on, we need
to set up translations for the problem state code to use.

Paul Mackerras 10f4be4309 tests: Add a test for privileged instruction interrupts
This adds a test that tries to execute various privileged instructions
with MSR[PR] = 1.  This also incidentally tests some of the MSR bit
manipulations.
