If watchdog is enabled, the arch/powerpc/lib/ticks.S::wait_ticks() function
calls the function specified by the WATCHDOG_RESET macro.
The wait_ticks function depends on the registers r0, r6 and r7 being
preserved however that is not guaranteed, e.g. if the reset function is a
C function this will probably overwrite r0 and cause an endless loop.
The following patch changes to using r14+r15 instead of r6+r7 (to resemble
what would have been generated by a C compiler) and saves all necessary
registers on the stack.
The patch has been tested on a custom MPC5125 based machine using the 512x
powerpc architecture.

wait_ticks() calls get_ticks() without building a back chain which
makes gdb unhappy when doing back trace. This can also cause
improper memory accesses.

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.

Also move lib_$ARCH/config.mk to arch/$ARCH/config.mk
This change is intended to clean up the top-level directory structure
and more closely mimic Linux's directory organization.
