This patch introduces a new default FIQ handler that is structured in a
similar way to the existing ARM exception handler and result in the FIQ
being handled by C code running on the SVC stack (despite this code run
in the FIQ handler is subject to severe limitations with respect to
locking making normal interaction with the kernel impossible).
This default handler allows concepts that on x86 would be handled using
NMIs to be realized on ARM.

This patch is a near complete re-write of a patch originally
provided by Anton Vorontsov. Today only a couple of small fragments
survive, however without Anton's work to build from this patch would
not exist. Thanks also to Russell King for spoonfeeding me a variety
of fixes during the review cycle.

This is because the vectors page is now write-protected, and to change
code in there we must write to its original alias. Make that change,
and adjust the cache flushing such that the code will become visible
to the instruction stream on VIVT CPUs.

FIQ should no longer copy the FIQ code into the user visible vector
page. Instead, it should use the hidden page. This change makes
that happen.

The commit a2be01b (ARM: only include mach/irqs.h for !SPARSE_IRQ)
makes mach/irqs.h only be included for !SPARSE_IRQ build. There are
a nubmer of platforms have FIQ_START defined in mach/irqs.h for FIQ
support.
arch/arm/mach-rpc/include/mach/irqs.h:#define FIQ_START 64
arch/arm/mach-s3c24xx/include/mach/irqs.h:#define FIQ_START IRQ_EINT0
arch/arm/plat-mxc/include/mach/irqs.h:#define FIQ_START 0
If SPARSE_IRQ is enabled for any of these platforms, the following
compile error will be seen.
arch/arm/kernel/fiq.c: In function ‘enable_fiq’:
arch/arm/kernel/fiq.c:127:19: error: ‘FIQ_START’ undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/arm/kernel/fiq.c:127:19: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
arch/arm/kernel/fiq.c: In function ‘disable_fiq’:
arch/arm/kernel/fiq.c:132:20: error: ‘FIQ_START’ undeclared (first use in this function)
The patch changes fiq code to have init_FIQ take FIQ_START from
platforms as a parameter and assign it to variable fiq_start which
is to replace FIQ_START uses in enable_fiq/disable_fiq.

* To remove the risk of inconvenient register allocation decisions
by the compiler, these functions are separated out as pure
assembler.
* The apcs frame manipulation code is not applicable for Thumb-2
(and also not easily compatible). Since it's not essential to
have a full frame on these leaf assembler functions, the frame
manipulation is removed, in the interests of simplicity.
* Split up ldm/stm instructions to be compatible with Thumb-2,
as well as avoiding instruction forms deprecated on >= ARMv7.

This patch removes the domain switching functionality via the set_fs and
__switch_to functions on cores that have a TLS register.
Currently, the ioremap and vmalloc areas share the same level 1 page
tables and therefore have the same domain (DOMAIN_KERNEL). When the
kernel domain is modified from Client to Manager (via the __set_fs or in
the __switch_to function), the XN (eXecute Never) bit is overridden and
newer CPUs can speculatively prefetch the ioremap'ed memory.
Linux performs the kernel domain switching to allow user-specific
functions (copy_to/from_user, get/put_user etc.) to access kernel
memory. In order for these functions to work with the kernel domain set
to Client, the patch modifies the LDRT/STRT and related instructions to
the LDR/STR ones.
The user pages access rights are also modified for kernel read-only
access rather than read/write so that the copy-on-write mechanism still
works. CPU_USE_DOMAINS gets disabled only if the hardware has a TLS register
(CPU_32v6K is defined) since writing the TLS value to the high vectors page
isn't possible.
The user addresses passed to the kernel are checked by the access_ok()
function so that they do not point to the kernel space.

On ARM it doesn't make sense to trace a naked function because then
mcount is called without stack and frame pointer being set up and there
is no chance to restore the lr register to the value before mcount was
called.

Patch from Thomas Gleixner
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
Switch the ARM irq core handling to the generic implementation. The
ARM specific header files now contain mostly migration stubs and
helper macros. Note that each machine type must be converted after
this step seperately. This was seperated out from the patch for easier
review.
The main changes for the machine type code is the conversion of the
type handlers to a 'type flow' and 'chip' model. This affects only the
multiplex interrupt handlers. A conversion macro needs to be added to
those implementations, which defines the data structure which is
registered by the set_irq_chained_handler() macro.
Some minor fixups of include files and the conversion of data
structure access is necessary all over the place.
The mostly macro based conversion was provided to allow an easy
migration of the existing implementations.
The code compiles on all defconfigs available in arch/arm/configs
except those which were broken also before applying the conversion
patches.
The code has been boot and runtime tested on most ARM platforms. The
results of an extensive testing and bugfixing series can be found
at: http://www.linutronix.de/index.php?page=testing

Patch from Catalin Marinas
If the low interrupt latency mode is enabled for the CPU (from ARMv6
onwards), the ldm/stm instructions are no longer atomic. An ldm instruction
restoring the sp and pc registers can be interrupted immediately after sp
was updated but before the pc. If this happens, the CPU restores the base
register to the value before the ldm instruction but if the base register
is not sp, the interrupt routine will corrupt the stack and the restarted
ldm instruction will load garbage.
Note that future ARM cores might always run in the low interrupt latency
mode.

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!
