6ebbf2ce43 ARM: convert all "mov.* pc, reg" to "bx reg" for ARMv6+
ARMv6 and greater introduced a new instruction ("bx") which can be used
to return from function calls.  Recent CPUs perform better when the
"bx lr" instruction is used rather than the "mov pc, lr" instruction,
and this sequence is strongly recommended to be used by the ARM
architecture manual (section A.4.1.1).

We provide a new macro "ret" with all its variants for the condition
code which will resolve to the appropriate instruction.

Rather than doing this piecemeal, and miss some instances, change all
the "mov pc" instances to use the new macro, with the exception of
the "movs" instruction and the kprobes code.  This allows us to detect
the "mov pc, lr" case and fix it up - and also gives us the possibility
of deploying this for other registers depending on the CPU selection.

031bd879f7 ARM: mm: implement LoUIS API for cache maintenance ops
ARM v7 architecture introduced the concept of cache levels and related
control registers. New processors like A7 and A15 embed an L2 unified cache
controller that becomes part of the cache level hierarchy. Some operations in
the kernel like cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable do not require a flush of the
entire cache hierarchy to DRAM but just the cache levels belonging to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS), which in most of ARM v7 systems
correspond to L1.

The current cache flushing API used in cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable,
flush_cache_all(), ends up flushing the whole cache hierarchy since for
v7 it cleans and invalidates all cache levels up to Level of Coherency
(LoC) which cripples system performance when used in hot paths like hotplug
and cpuidle.

Therefore a new kernel cache maintenance API must be added to cope with
latest ARM system requirements.

This patch adds flush_cache_louis() to the ARM kernel cache maintenance API.

This function cleans and invalidates all data cache levels up to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS) and invalidates the instruction
cache for processors that support it (> v7).

This patch also creates an alias of the cache LoUIS function to flush_kern_all
for all processor versions prior to v7, so that the current cache flushing
behaviour is unchanged for those processors.

v7 cache maintenance code implements a cache LoUIS function that cleans and
invalidates the D-cache up to LoUIS and invalidates the I-cache, according
to the new API.

c5102f5935 ARM: 7408/1: cacheflush: return error to userspace when flushing syscall fails
The cacheflush syscall can fail for two reasons:

(1) The arguments are invalid (nonsensical address range or no VMA)

(2) The region generates a translation fault on a VIPT or PIPT cache

This patch allows do_cache_op to return an error code to userspace in
the case of the above. The various coherent_user_range implementations
are modified to return 0 in the case of VIVT caches or -EFAULT in the
case of an abort on v6/v7 cores.

c8c90860cd ARM: 6466/1: implement flush_icache_all for the rest of the CPUs
Commit 81d11955bf ("ARM: 6405/1: Handle __flush_icache_all for
CONFIG_SMP_ON_UP") added a new function to struct cpu_cache_fns:
flush_icache_all(). It also implemented this for v6 and v7 but not
for v5 and backwards. Without the function pointer in place, we
will be calling wrong cache functions.

For example with ep93xx we get following:

    Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ee070f38
    pgd = c0004000
    [ee070f38] *pgd=00000000

__dma_alloc() calls (inlined) __dma_alloc_buffer() which ends up
calling dmac_flush_range(). Now since the entries in the
arm920_cache_fns are shifted by one, we jump into address 0xee070f38
which is actually next instruction after the arm920_cache_fns
structure.

So implement flush_icache_all() for the rest of the supported CPUs
using a generic 'invalidate I cache' 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!
