Given that the Makefiles involved already have conditional compilation of

Franck Bui-Huu 6f284a2ce7 [MIPS] FLATMEM: introduce PHYS_OFFSET.
The old code was assuming that min_low_pfn was always 0. This
means that platforms having a big hole at their memory start
paid the price of wasting some memory for the allocation of
unused entries in mem_map[].

This patch prevents this waste.

It introduces PHYS_OFFSET define which is the start of the
physical memory and uses it wherever needed. Specially when
converting physical/virtual addresses into virtual/physical
ones.

Currently all platforms defines PHYS_OFFSET to 0.

Atsushi Nemoto 97dcb82de6 [MIPS] Define MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE in generic header
The irq_base for {mips,rm7k,rm9k}_cpu_irq_init() are constant on all
platforms and are same value on most platforms (0 or 16, depends on
CONFIG_I8259).  Define them in asm-mips/mach-generic/irq.h and make
them customizable.  This will save a few cycle on each CPU interrupt.

A good side effect is removing some dependencies to MALTA in generic
SMTC code.

Although MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE is customizable, this patch changes irq
mappings on DDB5477, EMMA2RH and MIPS_SIM, since really customizing
them might cause some header dependency problem and there seems no
good reason to customize it.  So currently only VR41XX is using custom
MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE value, which is 0 regardless of CONFIG_I8259.

Testing this patch on those platforms is greatly appreciated.  Thank
you.

Ralf Baechle ac8be95504 [MIPS] SMTC: Instant IPI replay.
SMTC pseudo-interrupts between TCs are deferred and queued if the target
TC is interrupt-inhibited (IXMT). In the first SMTC prototypes, these
queued IPIs were serviced on return to user mode, or on entry into the
kernel idle loop. The INSTANT_REPLAY option dispatches them as part of
local_irq_restore() processing, which adds runtime overhead (hence the
option to turn it off), but ensures that IPIs are handled promptly even
under heavy I/O interrupt load.

Gautham R Shenoy b282b6f8a8 [PATCH] Change cpu_up and co from __devinit to __cpuinit
Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG = y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU = n
with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE = y generates the following modpost warnings

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b7d) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141b9c) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__cpu_up
from .text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141bd8) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c05) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c26) and 'cpu_up'
WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from
.text between '_cpu_up' (at offset 0xc0141c37) and 'cpu_up'

This is because cpu_up, _cpu_up and __cpu_up (in some architectures) are
defined as __devinit
AND
__cpu_up calls some __cpuinit functions.

Since __cpuinit would map to __init with this kind of a configuration,
we get a .text refering .init.data warning.

This patch solves the problem by converting all of __cpu_up, _cpu_up
and cpu_up from __devinit to __cpuinit. The approach is justified since
the callers of cpu_up are either dependent on CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU or
are of __init type.

Thus when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y, all these cpu up functions would land up
in .text section, and when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, all these functions would
land up in .init section.

Tested on a i386 SMP machine running linux-2.6.20-rc3-mm1.

Alexander Bigga 8a93c4968f [MIPS] Alchemy: Fix PCI-memory access
The problem was introduced in 2.6.18.3 with the casting of some
    36bit-defines (PCI memory) in au1000.h to resource_size_t which may be
    u32 or u64 depending on the experimental CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT.
    
    With unset CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, the pci-memory cannot be accessed
    because the ioremap in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c already used the
    truncated addresses.
    With set CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, things get even worse, because PCI-scan
    aborts, due to resource conflict: request_resource() in arch/mips/pci/pci.c
    fails because the maximum iomem-address is 0xffffffff (32bit) but the
    pci-memory-start-address is 0x440000000 (36bit).
    
    To get pci working again, I propose the following patch:
    
    1. remove the resource_size_t-casting from au1000.h again
    2. make the casting in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c (it's allowed and
    necessary here. The 36bit-handling will be done in __fixup_bigphys_addr).
    
    With this patch pci works again like in 2.6.18.2, the gcc-compile warnings
    in pci.c are gone and it doesn't depend on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL.

Ralf Baechle 2efac77e82 [MIPS] Discard .exit.text and .exit.data at runtime.
While the recent cset 86384d5441 did improve
things it didn't resolve all the problems.  So bite the bullet and discard
.exit.text and .exit.data at runtime.  Which of course sucks because it
bloats binaries with code that will never ever be used but it's the only
thing that will work reliable as demonstrated by the function sd_major() in
drivers/scsi/sd.c.

Gcc may compile sd_major() using a jump table which it will put into
.rodata.  If it also inlines sd_major's function body into exit_sd() which
gcc > 3.4.x does.  If CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD has been set to y we would like ld
to discard exit_sd's code at link time.  However sd_major happens to
contain a switch statement which gcc will compile using a jump table in
.rodata on the architectures I checked.  So, when ld later discards
.exit.text only the jump table in .rodata with its stale references to
the discard .exit.text will be left which any no antique ld will honor
with a link error.

Ralf Baechle 9202f32558 [MIPS] Export local_flush_data_cache_page for sake of IDE.
On a CPU with aliases the IDE core needs to flush caches in the special
IDE variants of insw, insl etc.  If IDE support is built as a module this
will only work if local_flush_data_cache_page happens is exported as a
module.

As per policy export local_flush_data_cache_page as GPL symbol only.
