probably because these Kconfig symbols are entirely unused and these
architectures both select HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP. Anyhow, these two

When starting an SMP hardware thread, copy the cache partition
configuration so that the threads share the same cache partitions. Also
enable the GCOn bit if running in the local half of the virtual address
space to enable coherency of shared local cache partitions. An atomic
unlock system event is executed by the new cpu before any memory is read
to ensure that any writes made by the boot cpu prior to full coherency
taking effect are visible to the new cpu.
This is to allow SMP to work even when the bootloader hasn't configured
the caches for coherency. A log message is printed to describe the cache
partition changes so that the user is aware of potential unintentional
cache wastage if they've configured the cache partitions in the wrong
way.

Add OProfile support for metag, using the perf backend, and falling back
to generic timer based sampling if perf counter interrupt support is
disabled.
The oprofile code prepends "metag/" to the perf pmu name to give
"metag/meta2" which is more consistent with other oprofile arch names.
The backtrace code makes use of <asm/stacktrace.h> for kernel
backtracing, and a simple frame pointer walk for userland backtracing.

Frequency sampling mode dynamically adjusts the sample period so as to
hit a particular frequency of samples. The sample period starts at just
1 and then gets increased if the interrupt rate is too high. This
changed sample period needs handling in metag_pmu_event_set_period to
update period_left (as the ARM equivalent does). The calculated delta
also needs subtracting from period_left in metag_pmu_event_update in
order to hit the conditional blocks in metag_pmu_event_set_period which
update last_period (which is used in the dynamic sampling period
calculation).

The prev_count needs setting when changing the counter value, otherwise
the calculated delta will be wrong, which for frequency sampling
(dynamic period sampling) results in sampling at too high a frequency.
For non-interrupting performance counters it should also be cleared when
enabling the counter since the write to the PERF_COUNT register will
clear the perf counter.
This also includes a minor change to remove the u64 cast from the
metag_pmu->write() call as metag_pmu->write() takes a u32 anyway, and in
any case GCC is smart enough to optimise away the cast.

We have CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX, which three archs define to the string
"_". But Al Viro broke this in "consolidate cond_syscall and
SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations" (in linux-next), and he's not the first to
do so.
Using CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is awkward, since we usually just want to
prefix it so something. So various places define helpers which are
defined to nothing if CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX isn't set:
1) include/asm-generic/unistd.h defines __SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h defines VMLINUX_SYMBOL(sym)
3) include/linux/export.h defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
4) include/linux/kernel.h defines SYMBOL_PREFIX (which differs from #7)
5) kernel/modsign_certificate.S defines ASM_SYMBOL(sym)
6) scripts/modpost.c defines MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX
7) scripts/Makefile.lib defines SYMBOL_PREFIX on the commandline if
CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is set, so that we have a non-string version
for pasting.
(arch/h8300/include/asm/linkage.h defines SYMBOL_NAME(), too).
Let's solve this properly:
1) No more generic prefix, just CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
2) Make linux/export.h usable from asm.
3) Define VMLINUX_SYMBOL() and VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR().
4) Make everyone use them.

The SMP version of arch_local_irq_enable() uses preempt_disable(), but
<asm/irqflags.h> doesn't include <linux/preempt.h> causing the following
errors on SMP when pstore/ftrace is enabled (caught by buildbot smp
allyesconfig):

arch/metag/include/asm/irqflags.h:86: error: implicit declaration of function 'preempt_enable_no_resched'
However <linux/preempt.h> cannot be easily included from
<asm/irqflags.h> as it can cause circular include dependencies in the
!SMP case, and potentially in the SMP case in the future. Therefore move
the SMP implementation of arch_local_irq_enable() into traps.c and use
an inline version of get_trigger_mask() which is also defined in traps.c
for SMP.
This adds an extra layer of function call / stack push when
preempt_disable needs to call other functions, however in the
non-preemptive SMP case it should be about as fast, as it was already
calling the get_trigger_mask() function which is now used inline.

There are 2 main types of atomic primitives for metag (in addition to
IRQs off on UP):
- LOCK instructions provide locking between hardware threads.
- LNKGET/LNKSET instructions provide load-linked/store-conditional
operations allowing for lighter weight atomics on Meta2
LOCK instructions allow for hardware threads to acquire voluntary or
exclusive hardware thread locks:
- LOCK0 releases exclusive and voluntary lock from the running hardware
thread.
- LOCK1 acquires the voluntary hardware lock, blocking until it becomes
available.
- LOCK2 implies LOCK1, and additionally acquires the exclusive hardware
lock, blocking all other hardware threads from executing.

The ptrace interface for metag provides access to some core register
sets using the PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET operations. The
details of the internal context structures is abstracted into user API
structures to both ease use and allow flexibility to change the internal
context layouts. Copyin and copyout functions for these register sets
are exposed to allow signal handling code to use them to copy to and
from the signal context.
struct user_gp_regs (NT_PRSTATUS) provides access to the core general
purpose register context.
struct user_cb_regs (NT_METAG_CBUF) provides access to the TXCATCH*
registers which contains information abuot a memory fault, unaligned
access error or watchpoint. This can be modified to alter the way the
fault is replayed on resume ("catch replay"), or to prevent the replay
taking place.
struct user_rp_state (NT_METAG_RPIPE) provides access to the state of
the Meta read pipeline which can be used to hide memory latencies in
hand optimised data loops.
Extended DSP register state, DSP RAM, and hardware breakpoint registers
aren't yet exposed through ptrace.

Meta has instructions for accessing:
- bytes - GETB (1 byte)
- words - GETW (2 bytes)
- doublewords - GETD (4 bytes)
- longwords - GETL (8 bytes)
All accesses must be aligned. Unaligned accesses can be detected and
made to fault on Meta2, however it isn't possible to fix up unaligned
writes so we don't bother fixing up reads either.
This patch adds metag memory handling code including:
- I/O memory (io.h, ioremap.c): Actually any virtual memory can be
accessed with these helpers. A part of the non-MMUable address space
is used for memory mapped I/O. The ioremap() function is implemented
one to one for non-MMUable addresses.
- User memory (uaccess.h, usercopy.c): User memory is directly
accessible from privileged code.
- Kernel memory (maccess.c): probe_kernel_write() needs to be
overwridden to use the I/O functions when doing a simple aligned
write to non-writecombined memory, otherwise the write may be split
by the generic version.
Note that due to the fact that a portion of the virtual address space is
non-MMUable, and therefore always maps directly to the physical address
space, metag specific I/O functions are made available (metag_in32,
metag_out32 etc). These cast the address argument to a pointer so that
they can be used with raw physical addresses. These accessors are only
to be used for accessing fixed core Meta architecture registers in the
non-MMU region, and not for any SoC/peripheral registers.

Add memory management files for metag.
Meta's 32bit virtual address space is split into two halves:
- local (0x08000000-0x7fffffff): traditionally local to a hardware
thread and incoherent between hardware threads. Each hardware thread
has it's own local MMU table. On Meta2 the local space can be
globally coherent (GCOn) if the cache partitions coincide.
- global (0x88000000-0xffff0000): coherent and traditionally global
between hardware threads. On Meta2, each hardware thread has it's own
global MMU table.
The low 128MiB of each half is non-MMUable and maps directly to the
physical address space:
- 0x00010000-0x07ffffff: contains Meta core registers and maps SoC bus
- 0x80000000-0x87ffffff: contains low latency global core memories
Linux usually further splits the local virtual address space like this:
- 0x08000000-0x3fffffff: user mappings
- 0x40000000-0x7fffffff: kernel mappings

Add cache and TLB handling code for metag, including the required
callbacks used by MM switches and DMA operations. Caches can be
partitioned between the hardware threads and the global space, however
this is usually configured by the bootloader so Linux doesn't make any
changes to this configuration. TLBs aren't configurable, so only need
consideration to flush them.
On Meta1 the L1 cache was VIVT which required a full flush on MM switch.
Meta2 has a VIPT L1 cache so it doesn't require the full flush on MM
switch. Meta2 can also have a writeback L2 with hardware prefetch which
requires some special handling. Support is optional, and the L2 can be
detected and initialised by Linux.

Add source files from the Thread Binary Interface (TBI) library which
provides useful low level operations and traps/context management.
Among other things it handles interrupt/exception/syscall entry (in
tbipcx.S).

Add boot code for metag. Due to the multi-threaded nature of Meta it is
not uncommon for an RTOS or bare metal application to be started on
other hardware threads by the bootloader. Since there is a single MMU
switch which affects all threads, the MMU is traditionally configured by
the bootloader prior to starting Linux. The bootloader passes a
structure to Linux which among other things contains information about
memory regions which have been mapped. Linux then assumes control of the
local heap memory region.
A kernel arguments string pointer or a flattened device tree pointer can
be provided in the third argument.

Add the header <asm/metag_mem.h> describing addresses, fields, and bits
of various core memory mapped registers in the low non-MMU region.

Add a couple of header files containing core architecture constants.
The first (<asm/metag_isa.h>) contains some constants relating to the
instruction set, such as values to give to the CACHEW and CACHER
instructions.
The second (<asm/metag_regs.h>) contains constants for the core register
units directly accessible to various instructions, and for the
registers, fields, and bits in those units. The main units described are
the control unit (CT.*), the trigger unit (TR.*), and the run-time trace
unit (TT.*).
