1af1717dbf powerpc: uaccess s/might_sleep/might_fault/ 
The only reason uaccess routines might sleep
is if they fault. Make this explicit.

Arnd Bergmann suggested that the following code
	if (!is_kernel_addr((unsigned long)__pu_addr))
		might_fault();
can be further simplified by adding a version of might_fault
that includes the kernel addr check.

Will be considered as a further optimization in future.

1629372caa powerpc: Use the new generic strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user() 
This is much the same as for SPARC except that we can do the find_zero()
function more efficiently using the count-leading-zeroes instructions.
Tested on 32-bit and 64-bit PowerPC.

b8b572e101 powerpc: Move include files to arch/powerpc/include/asm 
from include/asm-powerpc.  This is the result of a

mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm

Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly.  Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
