With the UM_SIGNAL alignment fault mode, no siginfo structure is
passed to userspace.
POSIX specifies how siginfo_t should be populated for alignment
faults, so this patch does just that:
* si_signo = SIGBUS
* si_code = BUS_ADRALN
* si_addr = misaligned data address at which access was attempted

Currently, it's possible to set the kernel to ignore alignment
faults when changing the alignment fault handling mode at runtime
via /proc/sys/alignment, even though this is undesirable on ARMv6
and above, where it can result in infinite spins where an un-fixed-
up instruction repeatedly faults.
In addition, the kernel clobbers any alignment mode specified on
the command-line if running on ARMv6 or above.
This patch factors out the necessary safety check into a couple of
new helper functions, and checks and modifies the fault handling
mode as appropriate on boot and on writes to /proc/cpu/alignment.
Prior to ARMv6, the behaviour is unchanged.
For ARMv6 and above, the behaviour changes as follows:
* Attempting to ignore faults on ARMv6 results in the mode being
forced to UM_FIXUP instead. A warning is printed if this
happened as a result of a write to /proc/cpu/alignment. The
user's UM_WARN bit (if present) is still honoured.
* An alignment= argument from the kernel command-line is now
honoured, except that the kernel will modify the specified mode
as described above. This is allows modes such as UM_SIGNAL and
UM_WARN to be active immediately from boot, which is useful for
debugging purposes.

poison_init_mem() used a loop of:
while ((count = count - 4))
which has 2 problems - an off by one error so that we do one less word
than we should, and the other is that if count == 0 then we loop forever
and poison too much. On a platform with HAVE_TCM=y but nothing in the
TCM's, this caused corruption and the platform failed to boot.

The file mm/proc-arm946.S contains a typo and is missing a structure
member in __arm946_proc_info. The former prevents compilation
and the latter causes problems during boot. It is likely this
file was manually copied from a similar file and not tested, then
later updates to the *_proc_info structures missed this file.
This patch will apply (with offset) with or without the
recent macro unification work that has been done in this directory.
This was verified against linux-next/stable last week.

Commit 66a625a (ARM: mm: proc-macros: Add generic proc/cache/tlb struct
definition macros) introduced build errors when PM_SLEEP is not enabled.
The per-CPU do_suspend/do_resume functions are defined via the
preprocessor to constant 0. However, the macros which use these were
converted to assembly, resulting in undefined references to these
functions. Fix that by moving the ! ifdef section into proc-macros.S
and deleting it from all effected proc-*.S files.

Kernel space needs very little in the way of BTC maintanence as most
mappings which are created and destroyed are non-executable, and so
could never enter the instruction stream.
The case which does warrant BTC maintanence is when a module is loaded.
This creates a new executable mapping, but at that point the pages have
not been initialized with code and data, so at that point they contain
unpredictable information. Invalidating the BTC at this stage serves
little useful purpose.
Before we execute module code, we call flush_icache_range(), which deals
with the BTC maintanence requirements. This ensures that we have a BTC
maintanence operation before we execute code via the newly created
mapping.

SiRFprimaII is the latest generation application processor from CSR’s
Multifunction SoC product family. Designed around an ARM cortex A9 core,
high-speed memory bus, advanced 3D accelerator and full-HD multi-format
video decoder, SiRFprimaII is able to meet the needs of complicated
applications for modern multifunction devices that require heavy concurrent
applications and fluid user experience. Integrated with GPS baseband,
analog and PMU, this new platform is designed to provide a cost effective
solution for Automotive and Consumer markets.
This patch adds the basic support for this SoC and EVB board based on device
tree. It is following the ZYNQ of Xilinx in some degree.

CNS3xxx SOCs have L310-compatible cache controller, so let's use it.
With this patch benchmarking with 'gzip' shows that performance is
doubled, and I'm still able to boot full-fledged userland over NFS
(using PCIe NIC), so the support should be pretty robust.
p.s. While CNS3xxx reports that it has PL310, it still needs to wait
on cache line operations, so we should not select 'CACHE_PL310',
which is a micro-optimization that removes these waits for v7 CPUs.
Someday we'd better rename CACHE_PL310 Kconfig option into
NO_CACHE_WAIT or something less ambiguous.
