Pull Tile arch updates from Chris Metcalf:
"These changes bring in a bunch of new functionality that has been
maintained internally at Tilera over the last year, plus other stray
bits of work that I've taken into the tile tree from other folks.
The changes include some PCI root complex work, interrupt-driven
console support, support for performing fast-path unaligned data
fixups by kernel-based JIT code generation, CONFIG_PREEMPT support,
vDSO support for gettimeofday(), a serial driver for the tilegx
on-chip UART, KGDB support, more optimized string routines, support
for ftrace and kprobes, improved ASLR, and many bug fixes.
We also remove support for the old TILE64 chip, which is no longer
buildable"

The TILE-Gx chip includes an on-chip UART. This change adds support
for using the UART from within the kernel. The UART shim has more
functionality than is exposed here, but to keep the kernel code and
binary simpler, this is a subset of the full API designed to enable
a standard Linux tty serial driver only.

To support PCIe devices with higher number of MSI-X interrupt vectors,
e.g. 16 for the LSI RAID card, enhance the Gx RC stack to provide more
MSI-X vectors by using the TRIO Scatter Queues, which provide 8 more
vectors in addition to ~10 from the Map Mem regions.

The initial driver support was for a single mPIPE shim on the chip
(as is the case for the Gx36 hardware). The Gx72 chip has two mPIPE
shims, so we extend the driver to handle that case.

This change adds support for accessing the USB shim from within the
kernel. Note that this change by itself does not allow the kernel
to act as a host or as a device; it merely exposes the built-in on-chip
hardware to the kernel.
The <arch/usb_host.h> and <arch/usb_host_def.h> headers are empty at
the moment because the kernel does not require any types or definitions
specific to the tilegx USB shim; the generic USB core code is all we need.
The headers are left in as stubs so that we don't need to modify the
hypervisor header (drv_usb_host_intf.h) from upstream.

Provide kernel support for the tilegx "Transaction I/O" (TRIO) on-chip
hardware. This hardware implements the PCIe interface for tilegx;
the driver changes to use TRIO for PCIe are in a subsequent commit.
The change is layered on top of the tilegx GXIO IORPC subsystem.

The TILE-Gx chip includes a packet-processing network engine called
mPIPE ("Multicore Programmable Intelligent Packet Engine"). This
change adds support for using the mPIPE engine from within the
kernel. The engine has more functionality than is exposed here,
but to keep the kernel code and binary simpler, this is a subset
of the full API designed to enable standard Linux networking only.

The dma_queue support is used by both the mPipe (networking)
and Trio (PCI) hardware shims on tilegx. This common code is
selected when either of those drivers is built.

The GXIO I/O RPC subsystem handles exporting I/O hardware resources to
Linux and to applications running under Linux.
For instance, memory which is made available for I/O DMA must be mapped
by an I/O TLB; that means that such memory must be locked down by Linux,
so that it is not swapped or otherwise reused, as long as those I/O
TLB entries are active. Similarly, configuring direct hardware access
introduces new validation requirements. If a user application registers
memory, Linux must ensure that the supplied virtual addresses are valid,
and turn them into client physical addresses. Similarly, when Linux then
supplies those client physical addresses to the Tilera hypervisor, it
must in turn validate those before turning them into the real physical
addresses which are required by the hardware.
To the extent that these sorts of activities were required on previous
TILE architecture processors, they were implemented in a device-specific
fashion. This meant that every I/O device had its own Tilera hypervisor
driver, its own Linux driver, and in some cases its own user-level
library support. There was a large amount of more-or-less functionally
identical code in different places, particularly in the different Linux
drivers. For TILE-Gx, this support has been generalized into a common
framework, known as the I/O RPC framework or just IORPC.
The two "gxio" directories (one for headers, one for sources) start
with just a few files in each with this infrastructure commit, but
after adding support for the on-board I/O shims for networking, PCI,
USB, crypto, compression, I2CS, etc., there end up being about 20 files
in each directory.
More information on the IORPC framework is in the <hv/iorpc.h> header,
included in this commit.
