powerpc: drop HPCD/MPC8610 evaluation platform support

This evaluation platform was essentially a single core 8641 with
integrated graphics/display support - in an effort to reduce chip count
on kiosk and similar applications.

Compared to other evaluation platforms considered for removal in other
recent commits, this platform was relatively rare. Unlike all the other
10+ platforms, I couldn't find any documentation on it - just a link to
downloading the 2007 era BSP in "LTIB" format as was done back then.

With all that in mind, it seems prudent to remove it here in 2023.

powerpc: drop HPC-NET/MPC8641D evaluation platform support

There is no denying that this was an interesting platform in its day.
Access to a SMP powerpc platform became a bit more obtainable for folks
in the BSP industry in the 2007 era, thanks to this platform.

Add to that the move to the black Antec case vs. the generic white 2005
era case of the MPC8548CDS or the retro 1950s 1/2 height horizontal case
of the HPC II, and it was pretty interesting to people like myself then.

However, like all the other evaluation platforms, the overall system
was complex out of necessity, as it tried to showcase all possible
features and use-cases. That included an AMP option, where you could run
two bootloaders and two kernels over two serial consoles. Peripheral
sharing got a bit more tricky when you got to the hard disk and similar.

In any case we still have the same circumstance. A relatively rare and
expensive evaluation platform that is now 15+ years old and not out there
in large numbers in the general public. Removal in 2023 just makes sense.

powerpc: retire sbc8641d board support

The support was for this was added to mainline over 12 years ago, in
v2.6.26 [4e8aae89a35d] just around the ppc --> powerpc migration.

I believe the board was introduced shortly after the sbc8548 board,
making it roughly a 14 year old platform - with the CPU speed and
memory size typical for that era.

I haven't had one of these boards for several years, and availability
was discontinued several years before that.

Given that, there is no point in adding a burden to testing coverage
that builds all possible defconfigs, so it makes sense to remove it.

Of course it will remain in the git history forever, for anyone who
happens to find a functional board and wants to tinker with it.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

powerpc/86xx: Add support for Emerson/Artesyn MVME7100

Add support for the Artesyn MVME7100 Single Board Computer.

The MVME7100 is a 6U form factor VME64 computer with:

- A two e600 cores Freescale MPC8641D CPU
- 2 GB of DDR2 onboard memory
- Four Gigabit Ethernets
- Five 16550 compatible UARTs
- One USB 2.0 port
- Two PCI/PCI eXpress Mezzanine Card (PMC/XMC) Slots
- A DS1375 Real Time Clock (RTC)
- 512 KB of Non-Volatile Memory (NVRAM)
- Two 64 KB EEPROMs
- 128 MB NOR and 4/8 GB NAND Flash

This patch is based on linux-4.7-rc1 and has been only boot tested.

Limitations:
This patch covers only models 171 and 173
No plans to support CPLD timers

Know issues:
All four PHYs work in polling mode

Configuration is missing for:
PCI IDSEL and PCI Interrupt definition

Support is missing for:
Cache and memory controllers (which are very similar to the 85xx ones
but right now I don't know if we can re-use their support)
Watchdog, USB, NVRAM, NOR, NAND, EEPROMs, VME, PMC/XMC and RTC
