powerpc: Add Initiate Coprocessor Store Word (icswx) support
Icswx is a PowerPC instruction to send data to a co-processor. On Book-S processors the LPAR_ID and process ID (PID) of the owning process are registered in the window context of the co-processor at initialization time. When the icswx instruction is executed the L2 generates a cop-reg transaction on PowerBus. The transaction has no address and the processor does not perform an MMU access to authenticate the transaction. The co-processor compares the LPAR_ID and the PID included in the transaction and the LPAR_ID and PID held in the window context to determine if the process is authorized to generate the transaction. The OS needs to assign a 16-bit PID for the process. This cop-PID needs to be updated during context switch. The cop-PID needs to be destroyed when the context is destroyed.
