This patch resolves a kexec boot failure that can occur because no ATAGs are passed in to the kexec'd kernel. Currently the newly-kexec'd kernel may fail if it requires specific ATAGs, or it may fail because the fixed memory location at which it expects to find the ATAGs may contain random data instead of ATAGs. The patch ensures that any ATAGs passed to the current kernel at boot time are copied to a static buffer, and are copied back when kexec copies the new kernel into place. Thus the new kernel sees the same ATAGs from kexec and the boot loader. The boot parameters are copied without regard to type, content, or length -- this patch's scope is limited soley to saving and restoring a fixed-size block of memory containing the kernel's boot parameters. Additional functionality to examine, alter, or replace the ATAGs (using kexec, for example) can be implemented by manipulating the static buffer containing the preserved ATAGs. Note: the size of the buffer (1.5KB) is selected to comfortably hold one of each ATAG type, including a maximum-length command line and the maximum number of ATAG_MEM structures currently supported by the kernel. Should an ATAG list exceed that limit, the list will be silently truncated to that limit (to do other- wise at that point in the boot process would make a simple problem exceedingly complicated). [Note: this is the same patch as 4579, modified to accomodate the ATAG changes introduced in 2.6.23] Signed-off-by: Mike Westerhof <mwester at dls.net> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

consistent_sync() is used to handle the cache maintainence issues with DMA operations. Since we've now removed the misuse of this function from the two MTD drivers, rename it to prevent future mis-use. Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>

This patch adds support for the Cirrus Logic EDB9307, an evaluation board based on the Cirrus Logic EP9307 SoC, which features amongst other things 64M RAM, 32M NOR flash, 3 USB host ports, audio in/out, two serial ports and a 10/100 ethernet interface.

Up to now only board-a9m9750dev.c used GPIOs. It just wrote directly into the corresponding registers. Now it properly reserves the gpio and uses the API function to configure it.

The semantic of the REGSET macros didn't change, but hopefully it's more obvious as it's now. REGGET is changed to return the unshifted value, analogous to REGSET. REGGETIM behaves as REGGET before. All callers changed. ..._IDX is used to work with registers that need a parameter like BBU_GCONFb1.

The cpu_architecture() function in arch/arm/kernel/setup.c only works with cores produced by ARM Ltd. The more generic approach is to read the ID_MMFR0 register and check for the VMSA or PMSA version supported. With this patch, the ARM11MPCore would be reported as ARMv7 since its MMU is compatible with ARMv7.

GENERIC_TIME and GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS support for the at91rm9200. - Oneshot mode (used for NO_HZ and high res timers) uses the alarm to emulate a real oneshot timer; the trickiest bit is how to avoid some lowlevel races. Thanks to Remy Bohmer for various fixes to this code. - Tighten up periodic mode support using the PIT. - Streamline reads of the 32KHz counter. Thanks to Marc Pignat for some testing results: the CRTR register has *very* odd behavior. The reread appears to work around stranger glitches than just getting an old clock value (which would quickly self-correct). - Remove the rounding-up of tick_usec to 10.009 msec (32KiHz/100), since that no longer acts correct (time increases too fast). Note that the at91sam9 and at91x40 chips need other solutions, since they don't have the same system timer module.
