The current timer-based delay loop relies on the architected timer to
initiate the switch away from the polling-based implementation. This is
unfortunate for platforms without the architected timers but with a
suitable delay source (that is, constant frequency, always powered-up
and ticking as long as the CPUs are online).
This patch introduces a registration mechanism for the delay timer
(which provides an unconditional read_current_timer implementation) and
updates the architected timer code to use the new interface.

When a CPU is hotplugged out caches that reside in its power domain
lose their contents and so must be cleaned to the next memory level.
Currently, __cpu_disable calls flush_cache_all() that for new generation
processor like A15/A7 ends up cleaning and invalidating all cache levels
up to Level of Coherency, which includes the unified L2.
This ends up being a waste of cycles since the L2 cache contents are not
lost on power down.
This patch updates __cpu_disable to use the new LoUIS API cache operations.

In processors like A15/A7 L2 cache is unified and integrated within the
processor cache hierarchy, so that it is not considered an outer cache
anymore. For processors like A15/A7 flush_cache_all() ends up cleaning
all cache levels up to Level of Coherency (LoC) that includes
the L2 unified cache.
When a single CPU is suspended (CPU idle) a complete L2 clean is not
required, so generic cpu_suspend code must clean the data cache using the
newly introduced cache LoUIS function.
The context and stack pointer (context pointer) are cleaned to main memory
using cache area functions that operate on MVA and guarantee that the data
is written back to main memory (perform cache cleaning up to the Point of
Coherency - PoC) so that the processor can fetch the context when the MMU
is off in the cpu_resume code path.
outer_cache management remains unchanged.

It looks that the warning is caused by that twd_update_frequency() gets
called from an atomic context while it calls clk_get_rate() where a
mutex gets held.
To fix the warning, let's convert common clk users over to clk notifiers
in place of CPUfreq notifiers. This works out nicely for Cortex-A9
MPcore designs that scale all CPUs at the same frequency.
Platforms that have not been converted to the common clk framework and
support CPUfreq will rely on the old mechanism. Once these platforms
are converted over fully then we can remove the CPUfreq-specific bits
for good.

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 patch does two things:
* Ensure that asynchronous aborts are masked at kernel entry.
The bootloader should be masking these anyway, but this reduces
the damage window just in case it doesn't.
* Enter svc mode via exception return to ensure that CPU state is
properly serialised. This does not matter when switching from
an ordinary privileged mode ("PL1" modes in ARMv7-AR rev C
parlance), but it potentially does matter when switching from a
another privileged mode such as hyp mode.
This should allow the kernel to boot safely either from svc mode or
hyp mode, even if no support for use of the ARM Virtualization
Extensions is built into the kernel.

This adds a 'struct smp_operations' to abstract the CPU initialization
and hot plugging functions on SMP systems, which otherwise conflict
in a multiplatform kernel. This also helps shmobile and potentially
others that have more than one method to do these.
To allow the kernel to continue building, the platform hooks are
defined as weak symbols which are overrided by the platform code.
Once all platforms are converted, the "weak" attribute will be
removed and the function made static.
Unlike the original version from Marc, this new version from Arnd
does not use a generalized abstraction for per-soc data structures
but only tries to solve the problem for the SMP operations. This
way, we can collapse the previous four data structures into a
single struct, which is less systematic but also easier to follow

a nontrivial way in arch/arm/mm/mmu.c.
Rob Herring explains:
The PCI i/o reserved area has a dummy physical address of 0 and
needs to be skipped by ioremap searches. So we don't set
VM_ARM_STATIC_MAPPING to prevent matches by ioremap. The vm_struct
settings don't really matter when we do the real mapping of the

From ARM debug architecture v7.1 onwards, a watchpoint exception causes

determine the access type that triggered the watchpoint.
This patch forbids watchpoints without an overflow handler from
specifying a specific access type (load/store). Those with overflow
handlers must be able to handle false positives potentially triggered by
a watchpoint of a different access type on the same address. For
SIGTRAP-based handlers (i.e. ptrace), this should have no impact.

The CPU PMU is probed using the current cpuid information as part of the
early_initcall initialising the architecture perf backend. For
architectures without NMI (such as ARM), this does not need to be
performed early and can be deferred to the driver probe callback. This
also allows us to probe the devicetree in preference to parsing the
current cpuid, which may be invalid on a big.LITTLE multi-cluster
system.
This patch defers the PMU probing and uses the devicetree information
when available.

There's a rather strange compiler barrier in the PMU disabling code
which was presumably placed there by aliens. There's no valid reason for
the barrier and one can only suspect that it's up to no good.
This patch removes it before it has a chance to spread.

The PMU reservation mechanism was originally intended to allow OProfile
and perf-events to co-ordinate over access to the CPU PMU. Since then,
OProfile for ARM has moved to using perf as its backend, so the
reservation code is no longer used.
This patch removes the reservation code for the CPU PMU on ARM.
