Bill Gatliff & David Brownell pointed out we were missing some
copyrights, and licensing terms in some of the files in
./arch/blackfin, so this fixes things, and cleans them up.
It also removes:
- verbose GPL text(refer to the top level ./COPYING file)
- file names (you are looking at the file)
- bug url (it's in the ./MAINTAINERS file)
- "or later" on GPL-2, when we did not have that right
It also allows some Blackfin-specific assembly files to be under a BSD
like license (for people to use them outside of Linux).

The current module relocation code has spotty handling wrt different
memory regions (like L1 instruction). Rather than try to fix each
little spot, use the new common memory functions to greatly simplify
everything and make sure it is always correct.

The current module section handling code has a lot of verbose statements
copied and pasted throughout which makes it pretty hard to digest at a
glance. By unifying all of these up front, it is a lot easier to quickly
get an idea of what is actually going on.

Convert all printk() statements to use the common pr_xxx() funcs and use
the new pr_fmt() function to standardize all of the output.

All kernel modules are required to be built with -mlong-calls and thus
should not generate any of these relocations. If they do, it means the
module has not been compiled properly, so rather than trying to handle
them (and running into random run time errors) just error out on module
load to force the module to be compiled correctly.

The latest Blackfin toolchain has fixed its relocation scheme to match
other ports: always use R_BFIN_ prefix and capitalize everything. This
brings the kernel in line with those fixes.

Remove all traces of the relocation stack. It's been removed from
binutils for years now.
Add a sanity overflow check to pcrel24 relocations to catch modules that
were built without -mlong-calls.

This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards.
The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.
The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf
The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibc
This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/
We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
be found at:
