Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
- More work on DT support for various platforms
- Various fixes that were to late to make it straight into 3.9
- Improved platform support, in particular the Netlogic XLR and
BCM63xx, and the SEAD3 and Malta eval boards.- Support for several Ralink SOC families.
- Complete support for the microMIPS ASE which basically reencodes the
existing MIPS32/MIPS64 ISA to use non-constant size instructions.- Some fallout from LTO work which remove old cruft and will generally
make the MIPS kernel easier to maintain and resistant to compiler
optimization, even in absence of LTO.- KVM support. While MIPS has announced hardware virtualization
extensions this KVM extension uses trap and emulate mode for
virtualization of MIPS32. More KVM work to add support for VZ
hardware virtualizaiton extensions and MIPS64 will probably already
be merged for 3.11.Most of this has been sitting in -next for a long time. All defconfigs
have been build or run time tested except three for which fixes are being
sent by other maintainers.Semantic conflict with kvm updates done as per Ralf

Reorganize some of the GIC clocksource driver code. Below is a list of
the various changes.* No longer select CSRC_GIC by default for Malta platform.
* Limit choice for either the GIC or R4K clocksource, not both.
* Change location in Makefile.
* Created new 'gic_read_count' function in common 'irq-gic.c' file.
* Change 'git_hpt_read' function in 'csrc-gic.c' to use new function.
* Surround GIC specific code in Malta platform code with #ifdef's.
* Only initialize the GIC clocksource if it was selected. Original
code called it unconditionally if a GIC was found.Signed-off-by: Steven J. Hill

Partially revert commit e0c14a260d66ba35935600d6435940a566fe806b
and turn off LL/SC when building a pure microMIPS kernel. This is
a temporary fix until the cmpxchg assembly macro functions are
re-written to not use the HI/LO registers in address calculations.Also add .insn in selected user access functions which would
otherwise produce ISA mode jump incompatibilities. This is also a
temporary fix.Signed-off-by: Steven J. Hill

The macros did not properly take into account the ISA that
the kernel was being compiled with. A classic MIPS kernel
will have the standard 'uasm_i_##op' macro functions with
'MM_uasm_i_##op' macro functions for the microMIPS version.

'CL_uasm_i_##op' macro functions for the classic version.Signed-off-by: Steven J. Hill

Jump or branch target addresses have the first bit set. The
original mask did not take this into account and will cause

Currently, the following instructions are translated:
- CACHE (indexed)
- CACHE (va based): translated to a SYNCI, overkill on D-CACHE operations,
but still much faster than a trap.
- mfc0/mtc0: the virtual COP0 registers for the guest are implemented as
2-D array.
[COP#][SEL] and this is mapped into the guest kernel address space @ VA 0x0.
mfc0/mtc0 operations are transformed to load/stores.Signed-off-by: Sanjay Lal

Original patch by Ralf Baechle and removed by Harold Koerfgen
with commit f67e4ffc79905482c3b9b8c8dd65197bac7eb508. This
allows for more generic kernels since the size of the ASID
and corresponding masks can be determined at run-time. This
patch is also required for the new Aptiv cores and has been
tested on Malta and Malta Aptiv platforms.[ralf@linux-mips.org: Added relevant part of fix
