Commit 1400eb6 (MIPS: r4k,octeon,r2300: stack protector: change canary
per task) was merged in v3.11 and introduced assembly in the MIPS resume
functions to update the value of the current canary in
__stack_chk_guard. However it used PTR_L resulting in a load of the
canary value, instead of PTR_LA to construct its address. The value is
intended to be random but is then treated as an address in the
subsequent LONG_S (store).
This was observed to cause a fault and panic:
CPU 0 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 139fea20, epc == 8000cc0c, ra == 8034f2a4
Oops[#1]:
...
$24 : 139fea20 1e1f7cb6

This can also be forced by modifying
arch/mips/include/asm/stackprotector.h so that the default
__stack_chk_guard value is more likely to be a bad (or unaligned)
pointer.
Fix it to use PTR_LA instead, to load the address of the canary value,
which the LONG_S can then use to write into it.

For non-SMP, uses the new random canary value that is stored in the
task struct whenever a new task is forked. Based on ARM version in
df0698be14c6683606d5df2d83e3ae40f85ed0d9 and subject to the same
limitations: the variable GCC expects, __stack_chk_guard, is global,
so this will not work on SMP.
Quoting Nicolas Pitre <nico@fluxnic.net>: "One way to overcome this
GCC limitation would be to locate the __stack_chk_guard variable into
a memory page of its own for each CPU, and then use TLB locking to
have each CPU see its own page at the same virtual address for each of
them."

Move the common code for saving and restoring platform specific COP2
registers to switch_to(). This will make supporting new platforms (like
Netlogic XLP) easier.
The platform specific COP2 definitions are to be specified in
asm/processor.h and in asm/cop2.h.

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

So far we're jumping through hoops to keep the file usable from assembler
source but it's getting just too painful. Turns out that many uses of
<asm/page.h> are unnecessary anyway, so just remove those.

[ralf@linux-mips.org: Cosmetic changes; also fixed up r2300_switch.S and
octeon_switch.S which needed similar modifications.]

Recent git versions now warn about those and they've always been a bit of
an annoyance.

These are the rest of the new files needed to add OCTEON processor
support to the Linux kernel. Other than Makefile and Kconfig which
should be obvious, we have:
csrc-octeon.c -- Clock source driver for OCTEON.
dma-octeon.c -- Helper functions for mapping DMA memory.
flash_setup.c -- Register on-board flash with the MTD subsystem.
octeon-irq.c -- OCTEON interrupt controller managment.
octeon-memcpy.S -- Optimized memcpy() implementation.
serial.c -- Register 8250 platform driver and early console.
setup.c -- Early architecture initialization.
smp.c -- OCTEON SMP support.
octeon_switch.S -- Scheduler context switch for OCTEON.
c-octeon.c -- OCTEON cache controller support.
cex-oct.S -- OCTEON cache exception handler.
asm/mach-cavium-octeon/*.h -- Architecture include files.
