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.

Add the missing invocation of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro to all

This includes 85xx/t1042rdb_diu.c and chrp/nvram.c which, although
they did not produce a warning with the powerpc allmodconfig
configuration, may cause this warning with other configurations.

Don't inherit headers "by chances" from asm/prom.h, asm/mpc52xx.h,
asm/pci.h etc...
Include the needed headers, and remove asm/prom.h when it was
needed exclusively for pulling necessary headers.

This patch adds support for the power button on future IBM cell blades.
It actually doesn't shut down the machine. Instead it exposes an
input device /dev/input/event0 to userspace which sends KEY_POWER
if power button has been pressed.
haldaemon actually recognizes the button, so a plattform independent acpid
replacement should handle it correctly.
