c01778001a ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cache
There are places in Linux where writes to newly allocated page cache
pages happen without a subsequent call to flush_dcache_page() (several
PIO drivers including USB HCD). This patch changes the meaning of
PG_arch_1 to be PG_dcache_clean and always flush the D-cache for a newly
mapped page in update_mmu_cache().

The patch also sets the PG_arch_1 bit in the DMA cache maintenance
function to avoid additional cache flushing in update_mmu_cache().

0fc73099dd ARM: 6378/1: Allow lazy cache flushing via PG_arch_1 for highmem pages
Commit d73cd42 forced non-lazy cache flushing of highmem pages in
flush_dcache_page(). This isn't needed since __flush_dcache_page()
(called lazily from update_mmu_cache) can handle highmem pages (fixed by
commit 7e5a69e).

2be23c475a ARM: Ensure PTE modifications via dma_alloc_coherent are visible
Dave Hylands reports:
| We've observed a problem with dma_alloc_writecombine when the system
| is under heavy load (heavy bus traffic).  We've managed to reduce the
| problem to the following snippet, which is run from a kthread in a
| continuous loop:
|
|   void *virtAddr;
|   dma_addr_t physAddr;
|   unsigned int numBytes = 256;
|
|   for (;;) {
|       virtAddr = dma_alloc_writecombine(NULL,
|             numBytes, &physAddr, GFP_KERNEL);
|       if (virtAddr == NULL) {
|          printk(KERN_ERR "Running out of memory\n");
|          break;
|       }
|
|       /* access DMA memory allocated */
|       tmp = virtAddr;
|       *tmp = 0x77;
|
|       /* free DMA memory */
|       dma_free_writecombine(NULL,
|             numBytes, virtAddr, physAddr);
|
|         ...sleep here...
|     }
|
| By itself, the code will run forever with no issues. However, as we
| increase our bus traffic (typically using DMA) then the *tmp = 0x77
| line will eventually cause a page fault. If we add a small delay (a
| few microseconds) before the *tmp = 0x77, then we don't see a page
| fault, even under heavy load.

A dsb() is required after modifying the PTE entries to ensure that they
will always be visible.  Add this dsb().

597781f3e5 kmap_atomic: make kunmap_atomic() harder to misuse
kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].

kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
takes a pointer to within the page itself.  This seems to once in a while
trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).

Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong").  This is done by
refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.

The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).

The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.

[1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
    break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
    share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
    degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
    for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.
[4] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-03-30.html
[5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
    the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

831e8047eb ARM: 6279/1: highmem: fix SMP preemption bug in kmap_high_l1_vipt
smp_processor_id() must not be called from a preemptible context (this
is checked by CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT).  kmap_high_l1_vipt() was doing so.
This lead to a problem where the wrong per_cpu kmap_high_l1_vipt_depth
could be incremented, causing a BUG_ON(*depth <= 0); in
kunmap_high_l1_vipt().

The solution is to move the call to smp_processor_id() after the call
to preempt_disable().

9ca03a21e3 ARM: Factor out common code from cpu_proc_fin()
All implementations of cpu_proc_fin() start by disabling interrupts
and then flush caches.  Rather than have every processors proc_fin()
implementation do this, move it out into generic code - and move the
cache flush past setup_mm_for_reboot() (so it can benefit from having
caches still enabled.)

This allows cpu_proc_fin() to become independent of the L1/L2 cache
types, and eventually move the L2 cache flushing into the L2 support
code.

5bc23d32d8 ARM: DMA coherent allocator: align remapped addresses
The DMA coherent remap area is used to provide an uncached mapping
of memory for coherency with DMA engines.  Currently, we look for
any free hole which our allocation will fit in with page alignment.

However, this can lead to fragmentation of the area, and allows small
allocations to cross L1 entry boundaries.  This is undesirable as we
want to move towards allocating sections of memory.

Align allocations according to the size, limiting the alignment between
the page and section sizes.

1dbd30e989 ARM: 6225/1: make TCM allocation static and common for all archs
This changes the TCM handling so that a fixed area is reserved at
0xfffe0000-0xfffeffff for TCM. This areas is used by XScale but
XScale does not have TCM so the mechanisms are mutually exclusive.

This change is needed to make TCM detection more dynamic while
still being able to compile code into it, and is a must for the
unified ARM goals: the current TCM allocation at different places
in memory for each machine would be a nightmare if you want to
compile a single image for more than one machine with TCM so it
has to be nailed down in one place.

Commit f4d6477f introduced a workaround for the lack of hardware

However, the workaround is only valid on CPUs that do not do speculative
loads into the D-cache.

This patch adds a Kconfig option with the corresponding help to make the
above clear. When the DMA_CACHE_RWFO option is disabled, the kernel
behaviour is that prior to the f4d6477f commit. This also allows ARMv6
UP processors with speculative loads to work correctly.

For other processors, a different workaround may be needed.

destroys data already present in the buffer. However, this function is
used with with dma_sync_single_for_device() which is supposed to
preserve the existing data transfered into the buffer. This patch adds a
combination of read/write for ownership to preserve the original data.

a5e9d38b22 ARM: 6186/1: Avoid the CONSISTENT_DMA_SIZE warning on noMMU builds
This macro is not defined when !CONFIG_MMU so this patch moves the
CONSISTENT_* definitions to the CONFIG_MMU section.

309caa9cc6 ARM: Prohibit ioremap() on kernel managed RAM
ARMv6 and above have a restriction whereby aliasing virtual:physical
mappings must not have differing memory type and sharability
attributes.  Strictly, this covers the memory type (strongly ordered,
device, memory), cache attributes (uncached, write combine, write
through, write back read alloc, write back write alloc) and the
shared bit.

However, using ioremap() and its variants on system RAM results in
mappings which differ in these attributes from the main system RAM
mapping.  Other architectures which similar restrictions approch this
problem in the same way - they do not permit ioremap on main system
RAM.

Make ARM behave in the same way, with a WARN_ON() such that users can
be traced and an alternative approach found.

3260e52937 arm: mm: Don't free prohibited memmap entries
The VM subsystem assumes that there are valid memmap entries to
the bank end aligned to MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES. It will try and read
these page structs, and so we cannot free any memmap entries that
it may inspect.

9a40ac8615 ARM: 6164/1: Add kto and kfrom to input operands list.
When functions incoming parameters are not in input operands list gcc
4.5 does not load the parameters into registers before calling this
function but the inline assembly assumes valid addresses inside this
function. This breaks the code because r0 and r1 are invalid when
execution enters v4wb_copy_user_page ()

Also the constant needs to be used as third input operand so account
for that as well.

Tested on qemu arm.
