2007-02-08[ARM] 4129/1: Add barriers after the TLB operationsCatalin Marinas
The architecture specification states that TLB operations are guaranteed to be complete only after the execution of a DSB (Data Synchronisation Barrier, former Data Write Barrier or Drain Write Buffer). The branch target cache invalidation is also needed. The ISB (Instruction Synchronisation Barrier, formerly Prefetch Flush) is needed unless there will be a return from exception before the corresponding mapping is used (i.e. user mappings).

2006-03-07[ARM] 3352/1: DSB required for the completion of a TLB maintenance operationCatalin Marinas
Patch from Catalin Marinas Chapter B2.7.3 in the latest ARM ARM (with v6 information) states that the completion of a TLB maintenance operation is only guaranteed by the execution of a DSB (Data Syncronization Barrier, formerly Data Write Barrier or Drain Write Buffer). Note that a DSB is only needed in the flush_tlb_kernel_* functions since the completion is guaranteed by a mode change (i.e. switching back to user mode) for the flush_tlb_user_* functions.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
