Commit 17278a91e04f ("MIPS: CPS: Fix r1 .set mt assembler warning")
added .set MIPS_ISA_LEVEL_RAW to silence warnings about .set mt on r1,
however this can result in a MOVE being encoded as a 64-bit DADDU
instruction on certain version of binutils (e.g. 2.22), and reserved
instruction exceptions at runtime on 32-bit hardware.
Reduce the sizes of the push/pop sections to include only instructions
that are part of the MT ASE or which won't convert to 64-bit
instructions after .set mips64r2/mips64r6.

MIPS will soon not be a part of Imagination Technologies, and as such
many @imgtec.com email addresses will no longer be valid. This patch
updates the addresses for those who:
- Have 10 or more patches in mainline authored using an @imgtec.com
email address, or any patches dated within the past year.
- Are still with Imagination but leaving as part of the MIPS business
unit, as determined from an internal email address list.
- Haven't already updated their email address (ie. JamesH) or expressed
a desire to be excluded (ie. Maciej).
- Acked v2 or earlier of this patch, which leaves Deng-Cheng, Matt &
myself.
New addresses are of the form firstname.lastname@mips.com, and all
verified against an internal email address list. An entry is added to
.mailmap for each person such that get_maintainer.pl will report the new
addresses rather than @imgtec.com addresses which will soon be dead.
Instances of the affected addresses throughout the tree are then
mechanically replaced with the new @mips.com address.

On pre-r6 systems with the MT ASE the CPS SMP code included checks to
halt the VPE running mips_cps_boot_vpes() if its bit in the struct
core_boot_config vpe_mask field is clear. This was largely done in order
to allow us to start arbitrary VPEs within a core despite the fact that
hardware is typically configured to run only VPE0 after powering up a
core. VPE0 would start the desired other VPEs, halt itself, and the fact
that VPE0 started would be largely hidden & irrelevant.
In MIPSr6 multithreading we have control over which VPs start executing
when a core powers up via the cores CPC registers accessed remotely
through the redirect block. For this reason the MIPSr6 multithreading
path in mips_cps_boot_vpes() hasn't bothered up until now to handle
halting the VP running it.
However it is possible to power up cores entirely in hardware by using a
pwr_up pin associated with the core. Unfortunately some systems wire
this pin to a logic 1, which means that it is possible for a core to
power up at a point that software doesn't expect. The result is that we
generally go execute the kernel on a CPU that ought not to be running &
the results can be unpredictable.
Handle this case by stopping VPs that we don't expect to be running in
mips_cps_boot_vpes() - with this change even if a core powers up it will
do nothing useful & all VPs within it will stop running before they
proceed to run general kernel code & do any damage. Ideally we would
produce some sort of warning here, but given the stage of core bringup
this happens at that would be non-trivial. We also will only hit this if
a core starts up after being offlined via hotplug, and when that happens
we will already produce a warning that the CPU didn't power down in
cps_cpu_die() which seems sufficient.

The vpe_mask member of struct core_boot_config is of type atomic_t,
which is a 32bit type. In cps-vec.S this member was being retrieved by a
PTR_L macro, which on 64bit systems is a 64bit load. On little endian
systems this is OK, since the double word that is retrieved will have
the required less significant word in the correct position. However, on
big endian systems the less significant word of the load is retrieved
from address+4, and the more significant from address+0. The destination
register therefore ends up with the required word in the more
significant word
e.g. when starting the second VP of a big endian 64bit system, the load
PTR_L ta2, COREBOOTCFG_VPEMASK(a0)
ends up setting register ta2 to 0x0000000300000000
When this value is written to the CPC it is ignored, since it is
invalid to write anything larger than 4 bits. This results in any VP
other than VP0 in a core failing to start in 64bit big endian systems.
Change the load to a 32bit load word instruction to fix the bug.

When CONFIG_MIPS_CPS_NS16550 is enabled, some register state is dumped
to the UART when an exception is taken via the BEV on secondary cores.
EJTAG exceptions are architecturally expected to be handled by the BEV
even when Status.BEV is 0. This effectively means that if userland
executes an sdbbp instruction on a secondary core then the kernel dumps
register state to the UART even though the exception is perfectly normal
& expected. Prevent this by simply not dumping information to the UART
for EJTAG exceptions.

Introduce support for bringing up Virtual Processors in MIPSr6 systems
as CPUs, much like their VPE parallel from the now-deprecated MT ASE.
The existing mips_cps_boot_vpes function fits the MIPSr6 architecture
pretty well - it can now simply write the mask of running VPs to the
VC_RUN register, rather than looping through each & starting or stopping
as appropriate as is done for VPEs from the MT ASE. Thus the VP support
is in general an extension & simplification of the existing MT ASE VPE
(aka SMVP) support.

In preparation for supporting MIPSr6 multithreading (ie. VPs) which will
begin execution from the core reset vector, skip core level setup if the
core is already coherent. This is never the case when a core is first
started, since boot_core explicitly clears the cores GCR_Cx_COH_EN
register, and always the case when secondary VPs start since the first
VP to start will have enabled coherence after initialising the core &
its caches.
One notable side effect of this patch is that eva_init gets called
slightly earlier, prior to mips_cps_core_init rather than after it.

Commit 977e043d5ea1 ("MIPS: kernel: cps-vec: Replace mips32r2 ISA level
with mips64r2") leads to .set mips64r2 directives being present in 32
bit (ie. CONFIG_32BIT=y) kernels. This is incorrect & leads to MIPS64
instructions being emitted by the assembler when expanding
pseudo-instructions. For example the "move" instruction can legitimately
be expanded to a "daddu". This causes problems when the kernel is run on
a MIPS32 CPU, as CONFIG_32BIT kernels of course often are...
Fix this by dropping the .set <ISA> directives entirely now that Kconfig
should be ensuring that kernels including this code are built with a
suitable -march= compiler flag.

The has_mt macro ended with a branch, leaving its callers with a delay
slot that would be executed if Config3.MT is not set. However it would
not be executed if Config3 (or earlier Config registers) don't exist
which makes it somewhat inconsistent at best. Fill the delay slot in the
macro & fix the mips_cps_boot_vpes caller appropriately.

Commit b677bc03d757 ("MIPS: cps-vec: Use macros for various arithmetics
and memory operations") replaced various load & store instructions
through cps-vec.S with the PTR_L & PTR_S macros. However it was somewhat
overzealous in doing so for CM GCR accesses, since the bit width of the
CM doesn't necessarily match that of the CPU. The registers accessed
(GCR_CL_COHERENCE & GCR_CL_ID) should be safe to simply always access
using 32b instructions, so do so in order to avoid issues when using a
32b CM with a 64b CPU.

This patch adds code to generate entry & exit code for various low power
states available on systems based around the MIPS Coherent Processing
System architecture (ie. those with a Coherence Manager, Global
Interrupt Controller & for >=CM2 a Cluster Power Controller). States
supported are:
- Non-coherent wait. This state first leaves the coherent domain and
then executes a regular MIPS wait instruction. Power savings are
found from the elimination of coherency interventions between the
core and any other coherent requestors in the system.
- Clock gated. This state leaves the coherent domain and then gates
the clock input to the core. This removes all dynamic power from the
core but leaves the core at the mercy of another to restart its
clock. Register state is preserved, but the core can not service
interrupts whilst its clock is gated.
- Power gated. This deepest state removes all power input to the core.
All register state is lost and the core will restart execution from
its BEV when another core powers it back up. Because register state
is lost this state requires cooperation with the CONFIG_MIPS_CPS SMP
implementation in order for the core to exit the state successfully.
The code will detect which states are available on the current system
during boot & generate the entry/exit code for those states. This will
be used by cpuidle & hotplug implementations.

When hotplug and/or a powered down idle state are supported cases will
arise where a non-zero VPE must be brought online without VPE 0, and it
where multiple VPEs must be onlined simultaneously. This patch prepares
for that by:
- Splitting struct boot_config into core & VPE boot config structures,
allocated one per core or VPE respectively. This allows for multiple
VPEs to be onlined simultaneously without clobbering each others
configuration.
- Indicating which VPEs should be online within a core at any given
time using a bitmap. This allows multiple VPEs to be brought online
simultaneously and also indicates to VPE 0 whether it should halt
after starting any non-zero VPEs that should be online within the
core. For example if all VPEs within a core are offlined via hotplug
and the user onlines the second VPE within that core:
1) The core will be powered up.
2) VPE 0 will run from the BEV (ie. mips_cps_core_entry) to
initialise the core.
3) VPE 0 will start VPE 1 because its bit is set in the cores
bitmap.
4) VPE 0 will halt itself because its bit is clear in the cores
bitmap.
- Moving the core & VPE initialisation to assembly code which does not
make any use of the stack. This is because if a non-zero VPE is to
be brought online in a powered down core then when VPE 0 of that
core runs it may not have a valid stack, and even if it did then
it's messy to run through parts of generic kernel code on VPE 0
before starting the correct VPE.

This patch introduces a new SMP implementation for systems implementing
the MIPS Coherent Processing System architecture. The kernel will make
use of the Coherence Manager, Cluster Power Controller & Global
Interrupt Controller in order to detect, bring up & make use of other
cores in the system. SMTC is not supported, so only a single TC per VPE
in the system is used. That is, this option enables an SMVP style setup
but across multiple cores.
