* rtems/powerpc/registers.h, rtems/score/ppc.h: Per PR213, add
	the following:
	    - support for the MPC74000 (AKA G4); there is no
	      AltiVec support yet, however.
	    - the cache flushing assembly code uses hardware-flush on the G4.
	      Also, a couple of hardcoded numerical values were replaced
	      by more readable symbolic constants.
	    - extended interrupt-disabled code section so enclose the entire
	      cache flush/invalidate procedure (as recommended by the book).
	      This is not (latency) critical as it is only used by
	      init code but prevents possible corruption.
	    - Trivial page table support as been added.
	      (1:1 effective-virtual-physical address mapping which is only
	      useful only on CPUs which feature hardware TLB replacement,
	      e.g. >604.  This allows for write-protecting memory regions,
	      e.g. text/ro-data which makes catching corruptors a lot easier.
	      It also frees one DBAT/IBAT and gives more flexibility
	      for setting up address maps :-)
	    - setdbat() allows changing BAT0 also (since the BSP may use
	      a page table, BAT0 could be available...).
	    - asm_setdbatX() violated the SVR ABI by using
	      r20 as a scratch register; changed for r0
	    - according to the book, a context synchronizing instruction is
	      necessary prior to and after changing a DBAT -> isync added

This is the top level of the RTEMS directory structure.  The following
is a description of the files and directories in this directory:

  Makefile.in
    The top-level Make command file used to build the C implementation
    of RTEMS.  [RTEMS assumes the use of GNU make.]

  README
    This file.

  REQUIRES
    A list of the other tools which are assumed to be installed
    before RTEMS is built.

  SUPPORT
    Information on third-party support for RTEMS.

  build-tools
    This directory contains the source for various utilities
    needed to build RTEMS.

  make
    Make command files "included" from those in the source distribution.
    [RTEMS assumes the use of GNU make.]

  patches
    This directory contains patches for this release of RTEMS.

  src
    This directory contains the source code for the C
    implementation of RTEMS as well as the test suites, sample
    applications, Board Support Packages, Device Drivers, and
    support libraries.
