Do this by adding flush_icache_all to cache_fns for ARMv6 and 7.
As flush_icache_all may neeed to be called from flush_kern_cache_all,
add it as the first entry in the cache_fns.
Note that now we can remove the ARM_ERRATA_411920 dependency
to !SMP so it can be selected on UP ARMv6 processors, such
as omap2.

workaround
Commit f4d6477f introduced a workaround for the lack of hardware
broadcasting of the cache maintenance operations on ARM11MPCore.
However, the workaround is only valid on CPUs that do not do speculative
loads into the D-cache.
This patch adds a Kconfig option with the corresponding help to make the
above clear. When the DMA_CACHE_RWFO option is disabled, the kernel
behaviour is that prior to the f4d6477f commit. This also allows ARMv6
UP processors with speculative loads to work correctly.
For other processors, a different workaround may be needed.

A recent patch for DMA cache maintenance on ARM11MPCore added a write
for ownership trick to the v6_dma_inv_range() function. Such operation
destroys data already present in the buffer. However, this function is
used with with dma_sync_single_for_device() which is supposed to
preserve the existing data transfered into the buffer. This patch adds a
combination of read/write for ownership to preserve the original data.

The Snoop Control Unit on the ARM11MPCore hardware does not detect the
cache operations and the dma_cache_maint*() functions may leave stale
cache entries on other CPUs. The solution implemented in this patch
performs a Read or Write For Ownership in the ARMv6 DMA cache
maintenance functions. These LDR/STR instructions change the cache line
state to shared or exclusive so that the cache maintenance operation has
the desired effect.

ARMv6 and ARMv7 CPUs can perform speculative prefetching, which makes
DMA cache coherency handling slightly more interesting. Rather than
being able to rely upon the CPU not accessing the DMA buffer until DMA
has completed, we now must expect that the cache could be loaded with
possibly stale data from the DMA buffer.
Where DMA involves data being transferred to the device, we clean the
cache before handing it over for DMA, otherwise we invalidate the buffer
to get rid of potential writebacks. On DMA Completion, if data was
transferred from the device, we invalidate the buffer to get rid of
any stale speculative prefetches.

This is needed because applications using the sys_cacheflush system call
can pass a memory range which isn't mapped yet even though the
corresponding vma is valid. The patch also adds unwinding annotations
for correct backtraces from the coherent_user_range() functions.

Patch from Catalin Marinas
ARM1136 erratum 371025 (category 2) specifies that, under rare
conditions, an invalidate I-cache by MVA (line or range) operation can
fail to invalidate a cache line. The recommended workaround is to
either invalidate the entire I-cache or invalidate the range by
set/way rather than MVA.
Note that for a 16K cache size, invalidating a 4K page by set/way is
equivalent to invalidating the entire I-cache.

Patch from Nicolas Pitre
Doing so adds a much larger cost to the loop than the cost implied by
simply invalidating the whole BTB at once.

Invalidate BTB entry instruction flushes two instruction

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
