Pull Tile arch updates from Chris Metcalf:
"These changes bring in a bunch of new functionality that has been
maintained internally at Tilera over the last year, plus other stray
bits of work that I've taken into the tile tree from other folks.The changes include some PCI root complex work, interrupt-driven
console support, support for performing fast-path unaligned data
fixups by kernel-based JIT code generation, CONFIG_PREEMPT support,
vDSO support for gettimeofday(), a serial driver for the tilegx
on-chip UART, KGDB support, more optimized string routines, support
for ftrace and kprobes, improved ASLR, and many bug fixes.We also remove support for the old TILE64 chip, which is no longer
buildable"* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: (85 commits)
tile: refresh tile defconfig files
tile: rework
tile PCI RC: make default consistent DMA mask 32-bit
tile: add null check for kzalloc in tile/kernel/setup.c
tile: make __write_once a synonym for __read_mostly
tile: remove support for TILE64
tile: use asm-generic/bitops/builtin-*.h
tile: eliminate no-op "noatomichash" boot argument
tile: use standard tile_bundle_bits type in traps.c
tile: simplify code referencing hypervisor API addresses
tile: change to in comments
tile: mark pcibios_init() as __init
tile: check for correct compiler earlier in asm-offsets.c

This chip is no longer being actively developed for (it was superceded
by the TILEPro64 in 2008), and in any case the existing compiler and
toolchain in the community do not support it. It's unlikely that the
kernel works with TILE64 at this point as the configuration has not been
tested in years. The support is also awkward as it requires maintaining
a significant number of ifdefs. So, just remove it altogether.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

The "available_irqs" value needs to actually reflect the IRQs
available, not just start as an all-ones mask, since we only
have 32 IRQs available even on a 64-bit platform.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This change adds support for CONFIG_PREEMPT (full kernel preemption).
In addition to the core support, this change includes a number
of places where we fix up uses of smp_processor_id() and per-cpu
variables. I also eliminate the PAGE_HOME_HERE and PAGE_HOME_UNKNOWN
values for page homing, as it turns out they weren't being used.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.This removes all the arch/tile uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. Currently tile does not have any __CPUINIT used in
assembly files.[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/20/589

We provided very similar routines internally, but now we can hook
into the generic framework by supplying our routines as function
pointers in the irq_chip structure instead.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

While not a port to KVM (yet), this change modifies the kernel
to be able to build either at PL1 or at PL2 with a suitable
config switch. Pushing up this change avoids handling branch
merge issues going forward with the KVM work.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This model is based on the on-chip interrupt model used by the
TILE-Gx next-generation hardware, and interacts much more cleanly
with the Linux generic IRQ layer.The change includes modifications to the Tilera hypervisor, which
are reflected in the hypervisor headers in arch/tile/include/arch/.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf

This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips.
No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet.This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level
low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are
shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic;
and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf
