* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cooloney/blackfin-2.6: (30 commits)
  Blackfin arch: If we double fault, rather than hang forever, reset
  Blackfin arch: When icache is off, make sure people know it
  Blackfin arch: Fix bug - skip single step in high priority interrupt handler instead of disabling all interrupts in single step debugging.
  Blackfin arch: cache the values of vco/sclk/cclk as the overhead of doing so (~24 bytes) is worth avoiding the software mult/div routines
  Blackfin arch: fix bug - IMDMA is not type struct dma_register
  Blackfin arch: check the EXTBANKS field of the DDRCTL1 register to see if we are using both memory banks
  Blackfin arch: Apply Bluetechnix CM-BF527 board support patch
  Blackfin arch: Add unwinding for stack info, and a little more detail on trace buffer
  Blackfin arch: Add ISP1760 board resources to BF548-EZKIT
  Blackfin arch: fix bug - detect 0.1 silicon revision BF527-EZKIT as 0.0 version
  Blackfin arch: add missing IORESOURCE_MEM flags to UART3
  Blackfin arch: Add return value check in bfin_sir_probe(), remove SSYNC().
  Blackfin arch:  Extend sram malloc to handle L2 SRAM.
  Blackfin arch: Remove useless config option.
  Blackfin arch:  change L1 malloc to base on slab cache and lists.
  Blackfin arch: use local labels and ENDPROC() markings
  Blackfin arch: Do not need this dualcore test module in kernel.
  Blackfin arch: Allow ptrace to peek and poke application data in L1 data SRAM.
  Blackfin arch: Add ANOMALY_05000368 workaround
  Blackfin arch: Functional power management support

Don't write conflicting data to EBIU_SDBCTL after the SDRAM is
configured. This can cause data corruption, since we might change SDRAM
row and column addressing modes.

24a07a1241 Blackfin arch: initial supporting for BF548-EZKIT
The ADSP-BF54x was specifically designed to meet the needs of convergent multimedia
applications where system performance and cost are essential ingredients. The
integration of multimedia, human interface, and connectivity peripherals combined
with increased system bandwidth and on-chip memory provides customers a platform to
design the most demanding applications.

Since now, ADSP-BF54x will be supported in the Linux kernel and bunch of related drivers
such as USB OTG, ATAPI, NAND flash controller, LCD framebuffer, sound, touch screen will
be submitted later.

Please enjoy the show.

1394f03221 blackfin architecture
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix!  Tinyboards.

The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc.  (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000.  Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices.  The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set.  It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.

The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf

The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibc

This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/

We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
be found at:
