Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
"This is the first chunk of ARM updates for this merge window.
Conflicts are expected in two files - asm/timex.h and
mach-integrator/integrator_cp.c. Nothing particularly stands out more
than anything else.
Most of the growth is down to the opcodes stuff from Dave Martin,
which is countered by Rob's patches to use more of the asm-generic
headers on ARM."
(A few more conflicts grew since then, but it all looked fairly trivial)

Pull ARM soc multiplatform enablement from Olof Johansson:
"This is a pretty significant branch. It's the introduction of the
first multiplatform support on ARM, and with this (and the later
branch) merged, it is now possible to build one kernel that contains
support for highbank, vexpress, mvebu, socfpga, and picoxcell. More
platforms will be convered over in the next few releases.
Two critical last things had to be done for this to be practical and
possible:
* Today each platform has its own include directory under
mach-<mach>/include/mach/*, and traditionally that is where a lot
of driver/platform shared definitions have gone, such as platform
data structures. They now need to move out to a common location
instead, and this branch moves a large number of those out to
include/linux/platform_data.
* Each platform used to list the device trees to compile for its
boards in mach-<mach>/Makefile.boot.
Both of the above changes will mean that there are some merge
conflicts to come (and some to resolve here). It's a one-time move
and once it settles in, we should be good for quite a while. Sorry
for the overhead."
Fix conflicts as per Olof.

Enable initial ARM multi-platform support for highbank, mvebu,
socfpga, picoxcell, and vexpress.
Multi-platform support is dependent on mach/gpio.h removal and
restructuring of DEBUG_LL and dtb build rules included in this branch.
This has been built for all defconfigs, and booted on highbank with
all 5 platforms enabled.

The zImage loader needs to turn on the MMU in order to take
advantage of caching while decompressing the zImage. Running this
in hyp mode would require the LPAE pagetable format to be
supported; to avoid this complexity, this patch switches out of hyp
mode, and returns back to hyp mode just before booting the kernel.
This implementation assumes that the Hyp mode view of memory and the
PL1 view of memory are coherent, providing that the MMU and caches
are off in both, as required by the boot protocol. The zImage
decompression code must drain the write buffer on completion anyway, and
entry into Hyp mode should flush any prefetch buffer, avoiding hazards
associated with local write buffers and the pipeline.

This lets us build a multiplatform kernel for experimental purposes.
However, it will not be useful for any real work, because it relies
on a number of useful things to be disabled for now:
* SMP support must be turned off because of conflicting symbols.
Marc Zyngier has proposed a solution by adding a new SOC
operations structure to hold indirect function pointers
for these, but that work is currently stalled
* We turn on SPARSE_IRQ unconditionally, which is not supported
on most platforms. Each of them is currently in a different
state, but most are being worked on.
* A common clock framework is in place since v3.4 but not yet
being used. Work on this is on its way.
* DEBUG_LL for early debugging is currently disabled.
* THUMB2_KERNEL does not work with allyesconfig because the
kernel gets too big
[Rob Herring]: Rebased to not be dependent on the mass mach header rename.
As a result, omap2plus, imx, mxs and ux500 are not converted. Highbank,
picoxcell, mvebu, and socfpga are converted.

When enabling the MMU for ARMv7 CPUs, the decompressor does not touch
the ttbcr register, assuming that it will be zeroed (N == 0, EAE == 0).
Given that only EAE is defined as 0 for non-secure copies of the
register (and a bootloader such as kexec may leave it set to 1 anyway),
we should ensure that we reset the register ourselves before turning on
the MMU.
This patch zeroes TTBCR.EAE and TTBCR.N prior to enabling the MMU for
ARMv7 cores in the decompressor, configuring us exclusively for 32-bit
translation tables via TTBR0.

This patch allows the ATAG_CMDLINE provided by the bootloader to be
concatenated to the bootargs property of the device tree.
This is useful to merge static values defined in the device tree
with the boot loader's (possibly) more dynamic values, such as
startup reasons and more.
The bootloader should use the device tree to pass those values to
the kernel, but that's not always simple (old bootloader or very
small one).
The behaviour is the same as the one introduced by Victor Boivie in
4394c1244249198c6b85093d46935b761b36ae05 by extending the CONFIG_CMDLINE.

Pull first batch of arm-soc cleanups from Olof Johansson:
"These cleanups are basically all over the place. The idea is to
collect changes with minimal impact but large number of changes so we
can avoid them from distracting in the diffstat in the other series.
A significant number of lines get removed here, in particular because
the ixp2000 and ixp23xx platforms get removed. These have never been
extremely popular and have fallen into disuse over time with no active
maintainer taking care of them. The u5500 soc never made it into a
product, so we are removing it from the ux500 platform.
Many good cleanups also went into the at91 and omap platforms, as has
been the case for a number of releases."

We setup identity MMU mappings across the entire 4GB of space, which
are permissionless because the domain is set to manager.
This unfortunately allows ARMv6 and later CPUs to speculatively
prefetch from the entire address space, which can cause undesirable
side effects if those regions contain devices.
As we setup the mappings with read/write permission, we can switch
the domain to client mode, and then use the XN bit for ARMv6 and
above to control speculative prefetch to non-RAM areas.

First batch of AT91 cleanup for 3.5 kernel.
- The biggest improvement of this series is the ability to compile several
AT91 SoCs in one kernel image.
For now on it's limited to the DT-enabled boards but we can compile all
the core together.
- The Kconfig series is stacked before other patches as it is simple and
non-intrusive. Its goal is to remove too restrictive dependencies on
SoC names. This will allow to add support for newer SoC seamlessly.
- Some very "cosmetic" Kconfig changes are also added (entry names,

ixp2xxx platforms have had no real changes since ~2006 and the maintainer

13:05 < nico> do you still care about ixp2000?
13:22 < lennert> not really, no
13:58 < nico> do you think we could remove it from the kernel tree?
14:01 < lennert> go for it, and remove ixp23xx too while you're at it

Some old bootloaders can't be updated to a device tree capable one,
yet they provide ATAGs with memory configuration, the ramdisk address,
the kernel cmdline string, etc. To allow a device tree enabled
kernel to be used with such bootloaders, it is necessary to convert those
ATAGs into FDT properties and fold them into the DTB appended to zImage.
Currently the following ATAGs are converted:
ATAG_CMDLINE
ATAG_MEM
ATAG_INITRD2
If the corresponding information already exists in the appended DTB, it
is replaced, otherwise the required node is created to hold it.
The code looks for ATAGs at the location pointed by the value of r2 upon
entry into the zImage code. If no ATAGs are found there, an attempt at
finding ATAGs at the typical 0x100 offset from start of RAM is made.
Otherwise the DTB is left unchanged.
Thisstarted from an older patch from John Bonesio <bones@secretlab.ca>,

This is a small subset of string functions needed by commits to come.
Except for memcpy() which is unchanged from its original location, their
implementation is meant to be small, and -Os is enforced to prevent gcc
from doing pointless loop unrolling.

The appended DTB gets relocated with the decompressor code to get out
of the way of the decompressed kernel. However the kernel's .bss section
may be larger than the relocated code and data, and then the DTB gets
overwritten. Let's make sure the relocation takes care of moving zImage
far enough so no such conflict with .bss occurs.
Thanks to Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com> for figuring out this issue.
While at it, let's clean up the code a bit so that the wont_overwrite
symbol is used while determining if a conflict exists, making the above
change more precise as well as eliminating some ARM/THUMB alternates.

This patch provides the ability to boot using a device tree that is appended
to the raw binary zImage (e.g. cat zImage <filename>.dtb > zImage_w_dtb).

This corrects a logic-error that I made in the original implementation.
An alternate patch would be to just remove these lines and
leave the clock running as it is reconfigured later on during
boot anyway.

Currently, the documented kernel entry requirements are not
explicit about whether the kernel should be entered in ARM or
Thumb, leading to an ambiguitity about how to enter Thumb-2
kernels. As a result, the kernel is reliant on the zImage
decompressor to enter the kernel proper in the correct instruction
set state.
This patch changes the boot entry protocol for head.S and Image to
be the same as for zImage: in all cases, the kernel is now entered
in ARM.
Documentation/arm/Booting is updated to reflect this new policy.
A different rule will be needed for Cortex-M class CPUs as and when
support for those lands in mainline, since these CPUs don't support
the ARM instruction set at all: a note is added to the effect that
the kernel must be entered in Thumb on such systems.

Place read-only data in a .rodata output section, and the compressed
piggy data in .piggydata. Place the .got.plt section before the .got
section as is standard ELF practise.
This allows the piggydata to be more easily extracted from the
compressed vmlinux file for verification purposes.

This allows a ROM-able zImage to be written to eSD and for SuperH Mobile
ARM to boot directly from the SDHI hardware block.
This is achieved by the MaskROM loading the first portion of the image into
MERAM and then jumping to it. This portion contains loader code which
copies the entire image to SDRAM and jumps to it. From there the zImage
boot code proceeds as normal, uncompressing the image into its final
location and then jumping to it.

It is easy to mis-maintain the proc_types table such that the
entries become wrongly-sized and misaligned when the kernel is
built in Thumb-2.
This patch adds an assembly-time check which will turn most common
size/alignment mistakes in this table into build failures, to avoid
having to debug the boot-time kernel hang which would happen if the
resulting kernel were actually booted.

Commit af3e4fd37a "ARM: 6859/1: Add writethrough dcache support for
ARM926EJS processor" broke Thumb2 compilation by omitting to maintain
the wide encoding for the added branch instructions which made the
ARM926EJ-S record smaller than expected, breaking the record walk code.

The ARM kernel supports writethrough data cache via the
CONFIG_CPU_DCACHE_WRITETHROUGH option. However, that
functionality wasn't implemented in the arch/arm/boot/compressed
code. It is now necessary due to a new ARM926EJS processor
that has an issue with writeback data cache.

To be able to relocate the .bss section at run time independently from
the rest of the code, we must make sure that no GOTOFF relocations are
used with .bss symbols. This usually means that no global variables can
be marked static unless they're also const.
To enforce this, suffice to fail the build whenever a private symbol
is allocated to .bss and list those symbols for convenience.
The user_stack and user_stack_end labels in head.S were converted into
non exported symbols to remove false positives.
