When you turn it off, the kernel is unusable, so get rid of the option
and always allow unaligned access.
The Octeon specific memcpy intentionally does unaligned accesses and it
must not fault.

Instead of making each Octeon specific option depend on
CPU_CAVIUM_OCTEON, gate the body of the entire file with
CPU_CAVIUM_OCTEON. With this change, CAVIUM_OCTEON_SPECIFIC_OPTIONS
becomes useless, so get rid of it as well.

The CN63XXP1 needs a couple of workarounds to ensure memory is not written
in unexpected ways.
All PREF with hints in the range 0-4,6-24 are replaced with PREF 28. We
pass a flag to the assembler to cover compiler generated code, and patch
uasm for the dynamically generated code.
The write buffer threshold is reduced to 4.

All Octeon chips can support more than 4GB of RAM. Also due to how Octeon
PCI is setup, even some configurations with less than 4GB of RAM will have
portions that are not accessible from 32-bit devices.
Enable the swiotlb code to handle the cases where a device cannot directly
do DMA. This is a complete rewrite of the Octeon DMA mapping code.

This patch adds an config switch to determine if we need to build some
workaround helper files.
The staging driver octeon-ethernet references some symbols which are only
built when PCI is enabled. The new config switch enables these symbols in
bothe cases.
