GCC's __builtin_prefetch() was introduced a long time ago, all
supported GCC versions have it. Lets do what the big boys up in
linux/prefetch.h do, except we use '1' as the third parameter to
provoke 'PREF 0,...' and 'PREF 1,...' instead of other prefetch
hints.
This allows for better code generation. In theory the existing
embedded asm could be optimized, but the compiler has these builtins,
so there is really no point.

ar7_regiser_devices needs ar7_clocks_init to have been called first,
however clock.o is currently linked later due to its order in the Makefile,
therefore ar7_clocks_init always gets called later than ar7_register_devices
because both have the same initcall level. Fix this by moving
ar7_register_devices to the right initcall level.

The "nofpu" and "nodsp" kernel command line options currently do not
affect CPUs that are brought online later in the boot process or
hotplugged at runtime. It is desirable to apply the nofpu/nodsp options
to all CPUs in the system, so that surprising results are not seen when
a process migrates from one CPU to another.
[Ralf: Moved definitions of mips_fpu_disabled, fpu_disable,
mips_dsp_disabled and dsp_disable from setup.c to cpu-probe.c to allow
making mips_fpu_disabled and mips_dsp_disabled static.]

Modifications to the boot memory allocation structures to make them easier
to read and maintain. Note that this will not pass checkpatch because
it wants a structure element initializer to be enclosed in a
do {...} while(...), which is obvious nonsensical.

The only way the debugger can handle a trap in inside rcu_lock,
notify_die, or atomic_notifier_call_chain without a recursive fault is
to have a low level "first opportunity handler" do_trap_or_bp() handler.
Generally this will be something the vast majority of folks will not
need, but for those who need it, it is added as a kernel .config
option called KGDB_LOW_LEVEL_TRAP.
Also added was a die notification for oops such that kdb can catch an
oops for analysis.
There appeared to be no obvious way to pass the struct pt_regs from
the original exception back to the stack back tracer, so a special
case was added to show_stack() for when kdb is active because you
generally desire to generally look at the back trace of the original
exception.

These are the minimum changes to the kgdb core in order to enable an
API to connect a new front end (kdb) to the debug core.
This patch introduces the dbg_kdb_mode variable controls where the
user level I/O is routed. It will be routed to the gdbstub (kgdb) or
to the kdb front end which is a simple shell available over the kgdboc
connection.
You can switch back and forth between kdb or the gdb stub mode of
operation dynamically. From gdb stub mode you can blindly type
"$3#33", or from the kdb mode you can enter "kgdb" to switch to the
gdb stub.
The logic in the debug core depends on kdb to look for the typical gdb
connection sequences and return immediately with KGDB_PASS_EVENT if a
gdb serial command sequence is detected. That should allow a
reasonably seamless transition between kdb -> gdb without leaving the
kernel exception state. The two gdb serial queries that kdb is
responsible for detecting are the "?" and "qSupported" packets.

In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register
are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases,
this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero
exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to
restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In
this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would
cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution
is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of
the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware
that the code is emulating.
This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes
to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words:
I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The
Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the
CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that
actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would
work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of
the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic
(which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't
necessarily writable.

As documented in the Loongson 2F User Manual [2, 3], the old Loongson2F
series (2F01 / 2F02) have the NOP & JUMP issues which requires workarounds
in the kernel and binutils. This issue has been rectified in Loongson 2F
series 2F03 so no workarounds needed.
Now that the workarounds [1] adding the the -mfix-loongson2f-nop and
-mfix-loongson2f-jump options have been comitted to the binutils the CVS
repository), we can add the workarounds in the kernel.
The workarounds have no significant side effect on the system but may
decrease performance so we control them through a a new
CPU_LOONGSON2F_WORKAROUNDS config option allowing the users to only enable
it as necessary.
