arm: export dma_set_coherent_mask
While a regression was fixed with commit 710224fa2750cf (arm: fix
"arm: fix pci_set_consistent_dma_mask for dmabounce devices"), a
new one was introduced as dma_set_coherent_mask wasn't exported
for modules. This patch takes care for this issue.

The AT91 MCI has special SDIO transfer types: SDIO block and SDIO byte
transfers, but at91_mci driver doesn't use them and handles all SDIO
transfers as ordinary MMC block transfers. This causes problems for
multiple-block SDIO transfers (in particular for 256-bytes blocks).
Fix this situation by checking the opcode for SDIO CMD53 and setting
the transfer type in the AT91_MCI_CMDR register properly.
This patch was tested with libertas SDIO driver: problem with TX
timeouts on big packets was eliminated.

Fix interrupt priority level handling on SH-Mobile ARM.
SH-Mobile ARM platforms using multiple interrupt priority
levels need this patch to fix a potential dead lock that
may occur if multiple interrupts with different levels
are pending simultaneously.
The default INTC configuration is to use the same priority
level for all interrupts, so this issue does not trigger by
default. It is however common for board code to override the
interrupt priority for certain interrupt sources depending
on the application. Without this fix such boards may lock up.
In detail, this patch updates the INTC code in entry-macro.S
to make sure that the INTLVLA register gets set as expected.
To trigger this bug modify the board specific code to adjust
the interrupt priority level for the ethernet chip. After
changing the priority level simply use flood ping to drown
the board with interrupts.
This patch applies to INTCA-based processors such as sh7372,
sh7377 and sh7372. GIC-based processors are not affected.
Suitable for v2.6.37-rc and stable from v2.6.34 to v2.6.36.

Cache ownership must be acquired by reading/writing data from the
cache line to make cache operation have the desired effect on the
SMP MPCore CPU. However, the ownership is never acquired in the
v6_dma_inv_range function when cleaning the first line and
flushing the last one, in case the address is not aligned
to D_CACHE_LINE_SIZE boundary.
Fix this by reading/writing data if needed, before performing
cache operations.
While at it, fix v6_dma_flush_range to prevent RWFO outside
the buffer.

Because the nwfpe support is unlikely to be used on new platforms
and requires CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT, which is not generally used with
ARMv7+, we shouldn't expect to build nwfpe support into a Thumb-2
kernel.
At present, nwfpe contains assembly code which isn't Thumb-2
compatible, and for now it doesn't appear useful to port this
code.
All ARMv7-A/R platforms necessarily have VFPv3 hardware floating-
point natively, making emulation unnecessary.

This makes sense, because Thumb-2 code can't execute on plain
ARMv6 processors.
This will avoid accidentally configuring a broken kernel where the
config otherwise would allow multiple architecture versions to
coexist in the same kernel.
Not adding !CPU_V5 etc., because the chance of anyone trying to
put v5 and v7 in the same kernel is low, and I'm not aware of
any mach which can do this. These could be added later if it
matters.
Note that the rules may need to be refined if support for the
ARM1156J(F)-S processor is later added to the kernel, since this
processor supports the rare ARMv6T2 extensions, which add support
for Thumb-2 and a few other ARMv7 features.

The current implementation of the v7_coherent_*_range function assumes
that the D and I cache lines have the same size, which is incorrect
architecturally. This patch adds the icache_line_size macro which reads
the CTR register. The main loop in v7_coherent_*_range is split in two
independent loops or the D and I caches. This also has the performance
advantage that the DSB is moved outside the main loop.

commit 0d8e2d0dad98a693bad88aea6876ac8b94ad95c6 (OMAP2+: PM/serial:
hold console semaphore while OMAP UARTs are disabled) added use of the
console semaphore to protect UARTs from being accessed after disabled
during idle, but this causes problems in suspend.
During suspend, the console semaphore is acquired by the console
suspend method (console_suspend()) so the try_acquire_console_sem()
will always fail and suspend will be aborted.
To fix, introduce a check so the console semaphore is only attempted
during idle, and not during suspend. Also use the same check so that
the console semaphore is not prematurely released during resume.
Thanks to Paul Walmsley for suggesting adding the same check during
resume.

Kernel was failing to boot on omap1611 based OSK boards due to
mis-configured SRAM size. Existing code was using a hard-coded value
for 250k, which was then rounded down by PAGE_SIZE. Increasing this to
256k allows kernel to boot on omap1611 SoCs.
Problem reported by and initial fix suggested by Tim Bird.

Currently the {set,get}_pull callbacks of the s3c24xx_gpiocfg_default structure
are initalized via s3c_gpio_{get,set}pull_1up. This results in a linker
error when only CONFIG_CPU_S3C2442 is selected:
arch/arm/plat-s3c24xx/built-in.o:(.data+0x13f4): undefined reference to
`s3c_gpio_getpull_1up'
arch/arm/plat-s3c24xx/built-in.o:(.data+0x13f8): undefined reference to
`s3c_gpio_setpull_1up'
The s3c2442 has pulldowns instead of pullups compared to the s3c2440.
The method of controlling them is the same though.
So this patch modifies the existing s3c_gpio_{get,set}pull_1up helper functions
to take an additional parameter deciding whether the pin has a pullup or pulldown.
The s3c_gpio_{get,set}pull_1{down,up} functions then wrap that functions passing
either S3C_GPIO_PULL_UP or S3C_GPIO_PULL_DOWN.
Furthermore this patch sets up the s3c24xx_gpiocfg_default.{get,set}_pull fields
in the s3c244{0,2}_map_io function to the new pulldown helper functions.

CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL
Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the
assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a
result, using these directives in code sections can result in
misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel
(CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL).
This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to
assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word-
aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really
word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray
alignment faults in some circumstances.
In general, the following rules should be applied when using
data word declaration directives inside code sections:
* .quad and .double:
.align 3
* .long, .word, .single, .float:
.align (or .align 2)
* .short:
No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2
instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size.

Thumb-2.
The 32-bit conditional branches in Thumb-2 have a shorter range
(+/-512K) than their ARM counterparts (+/-32MB). The linker does
not currently generate trampolines to extend the range of these
Thumb-2 conditional branches, resulting in link errors when vmlinux
is sufficiently large, e.g.:
head.o:(.text+0x464): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_THM_JUMP19
This patch forces the longer-range, unconditional branch encoding
by use of an explicit IT instruction. The resulting branches are
triggered on the same conditions as before.

CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL
The code which makes up the zImage header intends to leave a
32-byte gap followed by a branch to the real entry point, a magic
number, and a word containing the absolute entry point address.
This gets messed up with with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL, because the
size of the initial padding NOPs changes.
Instead, the header can be made fully compatible by restoring it to
ARM.
In the Thumb-2 case, we can replace the initial NOPs with a
sequence which switches to Thumb and jumps to the real entry point.
As a consequence, the zImage entry point is now always ARM, so no
special magic is needed any more for the uImage rules in the
Thumb-2 case.

mm/proc-v7.S
Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the
assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result,
using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned
data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL).
This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume
that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when
accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned,
this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in
some circumstances.
In general, the following rules should be applied when using data
word declaration directives inside code sections:
* .quad and .double:
.align 3
* .long, .word, .single, .float:
.align (or .align 2)
* .short:
No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2
instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size.
immediately after an instruction.
In this specific case, we can achieve the desired alignment by
forcing a 32-bit branch instruction using the W() macro, since the
assembler location counter is already 32-bit aligned in this case.
