This involves two changes to the BSP code:
1) register_smp_ops() for BMIPS SMP
2) The CPU1 boot vector on some of the BCM63xx platforms conflicts with
the special interrupt vector (IV). Move it to 0x8000_0380 at boot time,
to resolve the conflict.

The GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP does not depend on CONFIG_PCI so move
it to the CONFIG_MIPS symbol so it's always selected for MIPS.
This fixes the missing pci_iomap declaration for MIPS.
Moreover, the pci_iounmap function was not defined in the
io.h header file if the CONFIG_PCI symbol is not set,
but it should since MIPS is not using CONFIG_GENERIC_IOMAP.
This fixes the following problem on a allyesconfig:
drivers/net/ethernet/3com/3c59x.c:1031:2: error: implicit declaration of
function 'pci_iomap' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

This reverts commit 3f4579252aa166641861a64f1c2883365ca126c2. It is
invalid because the macros CAC_ADDR and UNCAC_ADDR have a kernel
virtual address as an argument and also returns a kernel virtual
address. Using and physical address PHYS_OFFSET is blatantly wrong
for a macro common to multiple platforms.

The ISA exception bit selects whether exceptions are taken in classic
or microMIPS mode. This bit is Config3.ISAOnExc and was improperly

BMIPS43xx CPUs have two hardware threads, and on some SoCs such as 3368,
the bootloader has configured the system to boot from TP1 instead of the
more usual TP0. Create the physical to logical CPU mapping to cope with
that, do not remap the software interrupts to be cross CPUs such that we
do not have to do use the logical CPU mapping further down the code, and
finally, reset the slave TP1 only if booted from TP0.

As Jonas Gorske said in his patch:
Disable cpu_has_mmips for everything but SEAD3 and MALTA. Most of
these platforms are from before the micromips introduction, so they
are very unlikely to implement it.
Reduces an -Os compiled, uncompressed kernel image by 8KiB for
BCM63XX.
This patch taks a different approach than his, we gate the runtime
test for microMIPS by the config symbol SYS_SUPPORTS_MICROMIPS.

MIPS I is the ancestor of all MIPS ISA and architecture variants. Anything
ever build in the MIPS empire is either MIPS I or at least contains MIPS I.
If it's running Linux, that is.
So there is little point in having cpu_has_mips_1 because it will always
evaluate as true - though usually only at runtime. Thus there is no
point in having the MIPS_CPU_ISA_I ISA flag, so get rid of it.
Little complication: traps.c was using a test for a pure MIPS I ISA as
a test for an R3000-style cp0. To deal with that, use a check for
cpu_has_3kex or cpu_has_4kex instead.
cpu_has_3kex is a new macro. At the moment its default implementation is
!cpu_has_4kex but this may eventually change if Linux is ever going to
support the oddball MIPS processors R6000 and R8000 so users of either
of these macros should not make any assumptions.

The Broadcom BCM3368 Cable Modem SoC is extremely similar to the
existing BCM63xx DSL SoCs, in particular BCM6358, therefore little effort
in the existing code base is required to get it supported. This patch adds
support for the following on-chip peripherals:
- two UARTS
- GPIO
- Ethernet
- SPI
- PCI
- NOR Flash
The most noticeable difference with 3368 is that it has its peripheral
register at 0xfff8_0000 we check that separately in ioremap.h. Since
3368 is identical to 6358 for its clock and reset bits, we use them
verbatim.

For non-SMP, uses the new random canary value that is stored in the
task struct whenever a new task is forked. Based on ARM version in
df0698be14c6683606d5df2d83e3ae40f85ed0d9 and subject to the same
limitations: the variable GCC expects, __stack_chk_guard, is global,
so this will not work on SMP.
Quoting Nicolas Pitre <nico@fluxnic.net>: "One way to overcome this
GCC limitation would be to locate the __stack_chk_guard variable into
a memory page of its own for each CPU, and then use TLB locking to
have each CPU see its own page at the same virtual address for each of
them."

When building with -fstack-protector, gcc emits the __stack_chk_guard and
__stack_chk_fail symbols to check for stack stability. These symbols are
defined in vmlinux but the generated vmlinux.bin that is used to create
the compressed vmlinuz image has no symbol table so the linker can't find
these symbols during the final linking phase. As a result of which, we
need either to redefine these symbols just for the compressed image or drop
the -fstack-protector option when building the compressed image. This patch
implements the latter of two options.
Fixes the following linking problem:
dbg.c:(.text+0x7c): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_guard'
dbg.c:(.text+0x80): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_guard'
dbg.c:(.text+0xd4): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_guard'
dbg.c:(.text+0xec): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail'
[ralf@linux-mips.org: I'm applying this before the patch that actually adds
stack protector support for MIPS. This means, it will not be possible
to trigger above error message with any commit from the tree but rather
they are what one would hit without this commit.]

The patch set supports compression of oops messages while writing to NVRAM,
this helps in capturing more of oops data to lnx,oops-log. The pstore file
for oops messages will be in decompressed format making it readable.
In case compression fails, the patch takes care of copying the header added
by pstore and last oops_data_sz bytes of big_oops_buf to NVRAM so that we
have recent oops messages in lnx,oops-log.
In case decompression fails, it will result in absence of oops file but still
have files (in /dev/pstore) for other partitions.

On LPAR systems we need to inform the hypervisor that we are using the
EBB registers. We do this by setting a bit in the Virtual Processor Area
(VPA) - formerly known as the lppaca.
For now we do this always, ie. we do not dynamically enable/disable.

Add logic to the power8 PMU code to support EBB. Future processors would
also be expected to implement similar constraints. At that time we could
possibly factor these out into common code.
Finally mark the power8 PMU as supporting EBB, which is the actual
enable switch which allows EBBs to be configured.

Add support for EBB (Event Based Branches) on 64-bit book3s. See the
included documentation for more details.
EBBs are a feature which allows the hardware to branch directly to a
specified user space address when a PMU event overflows. This can be
used by programs for self-monitoring with no kernel involvement in the
inner loop.
Most of the logic is in the generic book3s code, primarily to avoid a
proliferation of PMU callbacks.
