This patch adds support for the Broadcom Brahma-B15 CPU readahead cache
controller. This cache controller sits between the L2 and the memory bus
and its purpose is to provide a friendler burst size towards the DDR
interface than the native cache line size.
The readahead cache is mostly transparent, except for
flush_kern_cache_all, which is precisely what we are overriding here.
The readahead cache only intercepts reads, and does invalidate on
writes (IOW), as such, some data can remain stale in any of its buffers, such
that we need to flush it, which is an operation that needs to happen in
a particular order:
- disable the readahead cache
- flush it
- call the appropriate cache-v7.S function
- re-enable
This patch tries to minimize the impact to the cache-v7.S file by only
providing a stub in case CONFIG_CACHE_B15_RAC is enabled (default for
ARCH_BRCMSTB since it is the current user).

This patch does the plumbing required to invoke the V7M cache code added
in earlier patches in this series, although there is no users for that
yet.
In order to honour the I/D cache disable config options, this patch changes
the mechanism by which the CCR is set on boot, to be more like V7A/R.

The dmac_* functions are private to the ARM DMA API implementation, and
should not be used by drivers. In order to discourage their use, remove
their prototypes and macros from asm/*.h.
We have to leave dmac_flush_range() behind as Exynos and MSM IOMMU code
use these; once these sites are fixed, this can be moved also.

With compilers which follow the C99 standard (like modern versions of gcc and
clang), "extern inline" does the wrong thing (emits code for an externally
linkable version of the inline function). "static inline" is the correct choice
instead.

Pull ARM-v7M support from Uwe Kleine-König:
"All but the last patch were in next since next-20130418 without issues.
The last patch fixes a problem in combination with
8164f7a (ARM: 7680/1: Detect support for SDIV/UDIV from ISAR0 register)
which triggers a WARN_ON without an implemented read_cpuid_ext.
The branch merges fine into v3.10-rc1 and I'd be happy if you pulled it
for 3.11-rc1. The only missing piece to be able to run a Cortex-M3 is
the irqchip driver that will go in via Thomas Gleixner and platform
specific stuff."

This patch adds the base support for the ARMv7-M
architecture. It consists of the corresponding arch/arm/mm/ files and
various #ifdef's around the kernel. Exception handling is implemented by
a subsequent patch.
[ukleinek: squash in some changes originating from commit
b5717ba (Cortex-M3: Add support for the Microcontroller Prototyping System)
from the v2.6.33-arm1 patch stack, port to post 3.6, drop zImage
support, drop reorganisation of pt_regs, assert CONFIG_CPU_V7M doesn't
leak into installed headers and a few cosmetic changes]

This is only used by 740t, which is a v4 core and (by my reading of the
datasheet for the CPU) ignores CRm for the cp15 cache flush operation,
making the v4 cache implementation in cache-v4.S sufficient for this
CPU.
Tested with 740T core-tile on Integrator/AP baseboard.

ARM v7 architecture introduced the concept of cache levels and related
control registers. New processors like A7 and A15 embed an L2 unified cache
controller that becomes part of the cache level hierarchy. Some operations in
the kernel like cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable do not require a flush of the
entire cache hierarchy to DRAM but just the cache levels belonging to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS), which in most of ARM v7 systems
correspond to L1.
The current cache flushing API used in cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable,
flush_cache_all(), ends up flushing the whole cache hierarchy since for
v7 it cleans and invalidates all cache levels up to Level of Coherency
(LoC) which cripples system performance when used in hot paths like hotplug
and cpuidle.
Therefore a new kernel cache maintenance API must be added to cope with
latest ARM system requirements.
This patch adds flush_cache_louis() to the ARM kernel cache maintenance API.
This function cleans and invalidates all data cache levels up to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS) and invalidates the instruction
cache for processors that support it (> v7).
This patch also creates an alias of the cache LoUIS function to flush_kern_all
for all processor versions prior to v7, so that the current cache flushing
behaviour is unchanged for those processors.
v7 cache maintenance code implements a cache LoUIS function that cleans and
invalidates the D-cache up to LoUIS and invalidates the I-cache, according
to the new API.

Commit 774c096bf9e49 (ARM: v6/v7 cache: allow cache calls to be
optimized) got dropped when the merge conflicts for moving the contents
of the files in commit 753790e713d (ARM: move cache/processor/fault
glue to separate include files) was fixed up in merge bd1274dc005
(Merge branch 'v6v7' into devel).
This puts the change back.
