Paul, here is the final version of the patch with all review
comments incorporated. 

Thanks
-Sachin


plain text document attachment (kexec-kdump-support-on-POWER6)
* On Power machines supporting VRMA, Kexec/Kdump does not work.
* Hypervisor stores VRMA mapping used by the OS, in the hpte hash tables.
* Make sure these hpte entries are left untouched.
*
* This patch also adds plpar_pte_read_raw() on the lines of
* plpar_pte_remove_raw().
