This patch series now has evolved to contain several related changes.
1. Updated the assorted cleanup series by Palmer.
The original cleanup patch series can be found here.
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-riscv/2018-August/001232.html
2. Implemented decoupling linux logical CPU ids from hart id.
Some of the work has been inspired from ARM64.
Tested on QEMU & HighFive Unleashed board with/without SMP enabled.
3. Included Anup's cleanup and IPI stat patch.
All the patch series have been combined to avoid conflicts as a lot of
common code is changed different patch sets. Atish has mostly addressed
review comments and fixed checkpatch errors from Palmer's and Anup's
series.

This patch set fixes up various failures in the RV32I port. The fixes
are all nominally independent, but are really only testable together
because the RV32I port fails to build without all of them. The patch
set includes:
* The removal of tishift on RV32I targets, as 128-bit integers are not
supported by the toolchain.
* The removal of swiotlb from RV32I targets, since all physical
addresses can be mapped by all hardware on all existing RV32I targets.
* The addition of ummodi3 and udivmoddi4 from an old version of GCC that
was licensed under GPLv2 as generic code, along with their use on
RV32I targets.
* A fix to our page alignment logic within ioremap for RV32I targets.

This patchset adds an option, CONFIG_FPU, to enable/disable floating-
point support within the kernel. The kernel's new behavior will be as
follows:
* with CONFIG_FPU=y
All FPU codes are reserved. If no FPU is found during booting, a
global flag will be set, and those functions will be bypassed with
condition check to that flag.
* with CONFIG_FPU=n
No floating-point instructions in kernel and all related settings
are excluded.

The RISC-V Linux port doesn't support systems that have the F extension
but don't have the D extension -- we actually don't support systems
without D either, but Alan's patch set is rectifying that soon. For now
I think we can leave this in a semi-broken state and just wait for
Alan's patch set to get merged for proper non-FPU support -- the patch
set is starting to look good, so doing something in-between doesn't seem
like it's worth the work.
I don't think it's worth fretting about support for systems with F but
not D for now: our glibc ABIs are IMAC and IMAFDC so they probably won't
end up being popular. We can always extend this in the future.

when parsing the hardware capability from device tree during booting.
This variable is used in those FPU-related functions.

If you use a 64-bit compiler to build a 32-bit kernel then you'll get an
error when building the vDSO due to a library mismatch. The happens
because the relevant "-march" argument isn't supplied to the GCC run
that generates one of the vDSO intermediate files.
I'm not actually sure what the right thing to do here is as I'm not
particularly familiar with the kernel build system. I poked the
documentation and it appears that KCFLAGS is the correct thing to do
(it's suggested that should be used when building modules), but we set

We use a single __copy_user assembly function to copy memory both from
and to userspace. While this works, it triggers sparse errors because
we're implicitly casting between the kernel and user address spaces by
calling __copy_user.
This patch splits the C declaration into a pair of functions,
__asm_copy_{to,from}_user, that have sane semantics WRT __user. This
split make things fine from sparse's point of view. The assembly
implementation keeps a single definition but add a double ENTRY() for it,
one for __asm_copy_to_user and another one for __asm_copy_from_user.
The result is a spare-safe implementation that pays no performance
or code size penalty.
