Calling alloc_bootmem() for tiny chunks of memory over and over is really
slow; on an XO-1, it caused the time between when the kernel started
booting and when the display came alive (post-lxfb probe) to increase
to 44s. This patch optimizes the prom_early_alloc function by
calling alloc_bootmem for 4k-sized blocks of memory, and handing out
chunks of that to callers. With this patch, the time between kernel load
and display initialization decreased to 23s. If there's a better way to
do this early in the boot process, please let me know.
(Note: increasing the chunk size to 16k didn't noticably affect boot time,
and wasted 9k.)
v4: clarify comment, requested by hpa
v3: fix wasted memory buglet found by Milton Miller, and style fix.
v2: reorder prom_early_alloc as suggested by Grant.

Make use of PROC_DEVICETREE to export the tree, and sparc's PROMTREE code to
call into OLPC's Open Firmware to build the tree.
v5: fix buglet with root node check (introduced in v4)
v4: address some minor style issues pointed out by Grant, and explicitly cast
negative phandle checks to s32.
v3: rename olpc_prom to olpc_dt
- rework Kconfig entries
- drop devtree build hook from proc, instead adding a call to x86's
paging_init (similarly to how sparc64 does it)
- switch allocation from using slab to alloc_bootmem. this allows
the DT to be built earlier during boot (during setup_arch); the
downside is that there are some 1200 bootmem reservations that are
done during boot. Not ideal..
- add a helper olpc_ofw_is_installed function to test for the
existence and successful detection of OLPC's OFW.

This patch enables the UART on the CE4100. The UART has a couple of
issues that need to be worked around. First the UART is mostly PC
compatible except that it is clocked eight times faster than a
standard PC so the default configuration provided in
arch/x86/include/asm/serial.h needs to be overridden. Second the TX
interrupt may not be set correctly all the time. Lastly accessing the
UART via I/O space for early_prink() hangs the chip when the IOAPIC is
enabled.
A custom mem_serial_in() is provided to work around the TX interrupt
issue. The configuration issues are dealt with in the call back
registered with the 8250 driver via serial8250_set_isa_configurator()

This patch for SGI UV systems addresses a problem whereby
interrupt transactions being looped back from a local IOH,
through the hub to a local CPU can (erroneously) conflict with
IO port operations and other transactions.
To workaound this we set a high bit in the APIC IDs used for
interrupts. This bit appears to be ignored by the sockets, but
it avoids the conflict in the hub.

When setting up the mpc_intsrc structure for vRTC's IRQ,
we need to set its irqflag to level trigger, otherwise
it will be taken as edge triggered and the vRTC IRQ will
fire only once, as there is never a EOI issued from the
IA core for it.
The original code worked in previous kernel. This is because it
was configured to level trigger type by luck. It fell
into the default PCI trigger category which is level triggered.

x86 PC, but a firmware emulated virtual RTC device(vrtc), which provides
some basic RTC functions like get/set time. vrtc serves as the only
wall clock device on Moorestown platform.

Penwell has APB timer based watchdog timers, it requires platform code to parse
SFI MTMR tables in order to claim its timer.
This patch will always parse SFI MTMR regardless of system timer configuration
choices. Otherwise, SFI MTMR table may not get parsed if running on Medfield
with always-on local APIC timers and constant TSC. Watchdog timer driver will
then not get a timer to use.

SFI provides a series of tables. These describe the platform devices present
including SPI and I²C devices, as well as various sensors, keypads and other
glue as well as interfaces provided via the SCU IPC mechanism (intel_scu_ipc.c)
This patch is a merge of the core elements and relevant fixes from the
Intel development code by Feng, Alek, myself into a single coherent patch
for upstream submission.
It provides the needed infrastructure to register I2C, SPI and platform devices
described by the tables, as well as handlers for some of the hardware already
supported in kernel. The 0.8 firmware also provides GPIO tables.
Devices are created at boot time or if they are SCU dependant at the point an
SCU is discovered. The existing Linux device mechanisms will then handle the
device binding. At an abstract level this is an SFI to Linux device translator.
Device/platform specific setup/glue is in this file. This is done so that the
drivers for the generic I²C and SPI bus devices remain cross platform as they
should.
(Updated from RFC version to correct the emc1403 name used by the firmware
and a wrongly used #define)
