The SmartMIPS ASE specifies how Read Inhibit (RI) and eXecute Inhibit
(XI) bits in the page tables work. The upper two bits of EntryLo{0,1}
are RI and XI when the feature is enabled in the PageGrain register.
SmartMIPS only covers 32-bit systems. Cavium Octeon+ extends this to
64-bit systems by continuing to place the RI and XI bits in the top of
EntryLo even when EntryLo is 64-bits wide.
Because we need to carry the RI and XI bits in the PTE, the layout of
the PTE is changed. There is a two instruction overhead in the TLB
refill hot path to get the EntryLo bits into the proper position.
Also the TLB load exception has to probe the TLB to check if RI or XI
caused the exception.
Also of note is that the layout of the PTE bits is done at compile and
runtime rather than statically. In the 32-bit case this allows for
the same number of PFN bits as before the patch as the _PAGE_HUGE is
not supported in 32-bit kernels (we have _PAGE_NO_EXEC and
_PAGE_NO_READ instead of _PAGE_READ and _PAGE_HUGE).
The patch is tested on Cavium Octeon+, but should also work on 32-bit
systems with the Smart-MIPS ASE.

64-bit CPUs have 64-bit c0_entrylo{0,1} registers. We should use the
64-bit dmtc0 instruction to set them. This becomes important if we
want to set the RI and XI bits present in some processors.

This patch adds a new DEBUG_ZBOOT option to allow the users to enable it
to debug the compressed kernel support for a new board and this optoin
should be disabled to reduce the kernel image size and speed up the
kernel booting procedure when the compressed kernel support is stable.

The userspace runtime linker uses the elf_platform to find the libraries
optimized for the current CPU archecture variant. First we need to allow it
to be set to something other than NULL. Follow-on patches will set some
values for specific CPUs.
GLIBC already does the right thing. The kernel just needs to supply good
data.

I believe these changes are needed on Alchemy SoCs in order to
use iomem above 4G with the usual platform_device machinery:
- Set CONFIG_ARCH_PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT to make resource_size_t 64-bit.
- Increase IOMEM_RESOURCE_END so that platforms can register resources.

In the old source code, I have let halt and poweroff do the same action,
but in reality, they have different meanings.
As the manpage of shutdown shows:
-r Reboot after shutdown.
-H Halt action is to halt or drop into boot monitor on systems that support it.
-P Halt action is to turn off the power.
and in the real world, some machines(e.g. NAS) did not provide a power
button and the shutdown works as reset, so, we need to provide a
mechanism to let the users turn off the power safely without breaking
the system, such a mechanism is "halt", which only put the system into a
dead loop or a power-save mode and print some information to the screen
to tell the users to turn off the power safely.
$ shutdown -hH now /* loongson_halt, not turn off the power */
$ shutdown -hP now /* loongson_poweroff, work as poweroff */

Lemote have used the PMON_VER strings to indicate the loongson-2f
machine series:
PMON_VER=LM8089 Lemote 8.9'' netbook
LM8101 Lemote 10.1'' netbook
(The above two netbooks have the same kernel support)
LM6XXX Lemote FuLoong(2F) box series
LM9XXX Lemote LynLoong PC series
Before the machtype is supported by the PMON, we can get the machine
type from the PMON_VER for these machines, this will help the users a
lot.
