When the CPLBs get a miss, we do:
- find a victim in the HW table
- remove the victim
- find the replacement in the software table
- put it into the HW table.
If we can't find a replacement in the software table, we accidently
leave a duplicate in the HW table. This patch ensures that duplicate
is marked as not valid.
What we should do is find the replacement in the software table, before
we find a victim in the HW table - but its too late in the release cycle
to do that much restructuring of this code.
Rather that duplicate code, connect Hardware Errors (irq5) into trap_c,
so user space processes get killed properly.
The rest of irq_panic() can be moved into traps.c (later)
There is still a small corner case that causes problems when a
pheriperal interrupt goes off a single cycle before a user space
hardware error. This causes a kernel panic, rather than the user
space process being killed.
But, this checkin makes things work in 99.9% of the cases, and is a vast
improvement from what is there today (which fails 100% of the time).

This patch restores the blackfin Hardware Performance Monitor Profiling
support that was killed by the combining of instrumentation menus in
commit 09cadedbdc.
Since there seems to be no good reason to behave differently from other
architectures, it now automatically selects the hardware performance
counters whenever the profiling is activated.
mach-common/irqpanic.c: pm_overflow calls pm_overflow_handler which is
in oprofile/op_model_bf533.c. I doubt that setting HARDWARE_PM as "m"
will work at all, since the pm_overflow_handler should be in the core
kernel image because it is called by irqpanic.c.
Therefore, I change HARDWARE_PM from a tristate to a bool.
The whole arch/$(ARCH)/oprofile/ is built depending on CONFIG_OPROFILE. Since
part of the HARDWARE_PM support files sits in this directory, it makes sense to
also depend on OPROFILE, not only PROFILING. Since OPROFILE already depends on
PROFILING, it is correct to only depend on OPROFILE only.
Thanks to Adrian Bunk for finding this bug and providing an initial
patch.

We need to send signals with the proper PC, or gdb gets
confused, and lots of tests fail. This should fix that.

- remove duplicated defines for the BF561
- generalize L2 support (so that it works for BF54x) and mark it executable
- add support for reading/executing the Boot ROM sections
(since it has data/functions we may need at runtime)
- and fixup names for each map

- no need to declare their sizes in the common header
- no need to tack on the section attribute as only the definition matters, not references

Revert this patch:
move the init sections to the end of memory, so that after they
are free, run time memory is all continugous - this should help decrease
memory fragementation. When doing this, we also pack some of the other
sections a little closer together, to make sure we don't waste memory.
To make this happen, we need to rename the .data.init_task section to
.init_task.data, so it doesn't get picked up by the linker script glob.
Since it causes the kernel not to boot up with mtd filesystems.

/*
* CPUs often take a performance hit when accessing unaligned memory
* locations. The actual performance hit varies, it can be small if the
* hardware handles it or large if we have to take an exception and fix
* it
* in software.
*
* Since an ethernet header is 14 bytes network drivers often end up
* with
* the IP header at an unaligned offset. The IP header can be aligned by
* shifting the start of the packet by 2 bytes. Drivers should do this
* with:
*
* skb_reserve(NET_IP_ALIGN);
*
* The downside to this alignment of the IP header is that the DMA is
* now
* unaligned. On some architectures the cost of an unaligned DMA is high
* and this cost outweighs the gains made by aligning the IP header.
*
* Since this trade off varies between architectures, we allow
* NET_IP_ALIGN

This new function insl_16 allows to read form 32-bit IO and writes to
16-bit aligned memory. This is useful in above described scenario -
In particular with the AXIS AX88180 Gigabit Ethernet MAC.
Once the device is in 32-bit mode, reads from the RX FIFO always
decrements 4bytes.
While on the other side the destination address in SDRAM is always
16-bit aligned.
If we use skb_reserve(0) the receive buffer is 32-bit aligned but later
we hit a unaligned exception in the IP code.
