First patch:

In preparation for my next set of patches to add device tree support
for Octeon, move some files out of drivers/staging/octeon to common
location.  There are two basic types of files I am moving:

1) Register definition files.  Most Octeon register definition files
   are in arch/mips/include/asm/octeon, put the rest there too.

2) Low level packet port type probing code.  This is needed by both
   the Ethernet driver and the code that fixes up the in-kernel device
   trees.  Although new board pass a device tree to the kernel,
   support of legacy boards requires that this probing code be used to
   fix up an in-kernel device tree template.


Second patch:

Update support for legacy boards.


Third patch:

Seperate probing and initialization of packet ports.


Since these are MIPS architecture files we could merge via Ralf's tree
if approved.

If Ralf approves of these changes, that's fine with me and they can go
through his tree:
