a2302b45d8 ARM: 5985/2: ARM: Fix Samsung build after "ARM: Eliminate decompressor -Dstatic= PIC hack"
Commit 5de813b6 (ARM: Eliminate decompressor -Dstatic= PIC hack) among
other things changed the declared type of the error() function to an
extern, conflicting with the forward declartion in the Samsung
plat/uncompress.h which appears to have been relying on the static
being defined away, causing build failures since error() ends up with
a GOT relocation but the linker script discards all GOT relocated
data and functions:

arch/arm/boot/compressed/decompress.o: In function `gunzip':
/home/broonie/git/linux-2.6/arch/arm/boot/compressed/../../../../lib/decompress_
+inflate.c:68: undefined reference to `error'

and so on. Fix this by moving the declaration into uncompress/misc.c
where it is shared with the rest of the code, correcting the definition
as we go.

98e12b5a6e ARM: Fix decompressor's kernel size estimation for ROM=y
Commit 2552fc2 changed the way the decompressor decides if it is safe
to decompress the kernel directly to its final location.  Unfortunately,
it took the top of the compressed data as being the stack pointer,
which it is for ROM=n cases.  However, for ROM=y, the stack pointer
is not relevant, and results in the wrong answer.

Fix this by explicitly storing the end of the biggybacked data in the
decompressor, and use that to calculate the compressed image size.

5de813b6cd ARM: Eliminate decompressor -Dstatic= PIC hack
We used to build decompressors with -Dstatic= to avoid any local data
being generated.  The problem is that local data generates GOTOFF
relocations, which means we can't relocate the data relative to the
text segment.

Global data, on the other hand, goes through the GOT, and can be
relocated anywhere.

Unfortunately, with the new decompressors, this presents a problem
since they declare static data within functions, and this leads to
stack overflow.

Fix this by separating out the decompressor code into a separate file,
and removing 'static' from BSS data in misc.c.

Also, discard the .data section - this means that should we end up
with read/write initialized data, the decompressor will fail to link
and the problem will be obvious.

b53e9b5ebd ARM: 5882/1: ARM: Fix uncompress code compile for different defines of flush(void)
Because of the include of the decompress_inflate.c file from
boot/compress/misc.c, there are different flush() defines:

In file included from arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c:249:
arch/arm/boot/compressed/../../../../lib/decompress_inflate.c:138:29: error: macro "flush" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 0

Fix this by removing the define of flush() in misc.c for
CONFIG_DEBUG_ICEDCC as it's already defined in mach/uncompress.h,
and that is being included unconditionally.

Also use a static inline function instead of define
for mach-mxc and mach-gemini to avoid similar bug

caa27b66bd kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel script
Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:

    make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install

With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no
longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint]

This patch undos what Ian did in commit:

  0f8e2d62fa
  ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
looks obvious.

aa0d3bb77e arm: allow usage of string functions in linux/string.h
In introducing a trivial "strstarts()" function in linux/string.h, we
hit:

	arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.o: In function `strstarts':
	misc.c:(.text+0x368): undefined reference to `strlen'
	misc.c:(.text+0x378): undefined reference to `strncmp'

This is because of "CFLAGS_misc.o := -Dstatic=" in the Makefile.
"static inline strstarts(...)" becomes non-inline, and refers to the
other string ops.

The simplest workaround is to include asm/string.h.  This makes sense
anyway, since lib/string.c won't be linked against this so we can't
use those functions anyway.

Compile tested here.

49cbe78637 [ARM] pxa: add base support for Marvell's PXA168 processor line
"""The Marvell® PXA168 processor is the first in a family of application
processors targeted at mass market opportunities in computing and consumer
devices. It balances high computing and multimedia performance with low
power consumption to support extended battery life, and includes a wealth
of integrated peripherals to reduce overall BOM cost .... """

See http://www.marvell.com/featured/pxa168.jsp for more information.

  1. Marvell Mohawk core is a hybrid of xscale3 and its own ARM core,
     there are many enhancements like instructions for flushing the
     whole D-cache, and so on

  2. Clock reuses Russell's common clkdev, and added the basic support
     for UART1/2.

  3. Devices are a bit different from the 'mach-pxa' way, the platform
     devices are now dynamically allocated only when necessary (i.e.
     when pxa_register_device() is called). Description for each device
     are stored in an array of 'struct pxa_device_desc'. Now that:

     a. this array of device description is marked with __initdata and
        can be freed up system is fully up

     b. which means board code has to add all needed devices early in
        his initializing function

     c. platform specific data can now be marked as __initdata since
        they are allocated and copied by platform_device_add_data()

  4. only the basic UART1/2/3 are added, more devices will come later.

2d6ffcca62 inflate: refactor inflate malloc code
Inflate requires some dynamic memory allocation very early in the boot
process and this is provided with a set of four functions:
malloc/free/gzip_mark/gzip_release.

The old inflate code used a mark/release strategy rather than implement
free.  This new version instead keeps a count on the number of outstanding
allocations and when it hits zero, it resets the malloc arena.

This allows removing all the mark and release implementations and unifying
all the malloc/free implementations.

The architecture-dependent code must define two addresses:
 - free_mem_ptr, the address of the beginning of the area in which
   allocations should be made
 - free_mem_end_ptr, the address of the end of the area in which
   allocations should be made. If set to 0, then no check is made on
   the number of allocations, it just grows as much as needed

The architecture-dependent code can also provide an arch_decomp_wdog()
function call.  This function will be called several times during the
decompression process, and allow to notify the watchdog that the system is
still running.  If an architecture provides such a call, then it must
define ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG so that the generic inflate code calls
arch_decomp_wdog().

Work initially done by Matt Mackall, updated to a recent version of the
kernel and improved by me.

Tweak the Feroceon match/mask in arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S to
match a couple of newer Feroceon cores (such as the 88fr571vd with
CPU ID 0x56155710, and the 88fr131 with CPU ID 0x56251310) as well.
