Following up with the work on shared page table done by Dave McCracken. This
set of patch target shared page table for hugetlb memory only.
The shared page table is particular useful in the situation of large number of
independent processes sharing large shared memory segments. In the normal
page case, the amount of memory saved from process' page table is quite
significant. For hugetlb, the saving on page table memory is not the primary
objective (as hugetlb itself already cuts down page table overhead
significantly), instead, the purpose of using shared page table on hugetlb is
to allow faster TLB refill and smaller cache pollution upon TLB miss.
With PT sharing, pte entries are shared among hundreds of processes, the cache
consumption used by all the page table is smaller and in return, application
gets much higher cache hit ratio. One other effect is that cache hit ratio
with hardware page walker hitting on pte in cache will be higher and this
helps to reduce tlb miss latency. These two effects contribute to higher
application performance.

__do_IRQ() is needed only by irq handlers that can't use
default handlers defined in kernel/irq/chip.c.
For others platforms there's no need to compile this function
since it won't be used. For those platforms this patch defines
GENERIC_HARDIRQS_NO__DO_IRQ symbol which is used exactly for
this purpose.
Futhermore for platforms which do not use __do_IRQ(), end()
method which is part of the 'irq_chip' structure is not used.
This patch simply removes this method in this case.

The following moves the creation of IPR interupts into setup-7750.c
and updates a few other things to make it all work after the "Drop
CPU subtype IRQ headers" commit. It boots and runs fine on my titan
board.
- adds an ipr_idx to the ipr_data and uses a function in the subtype
code to calculate the address of the IPR registers
- adds a function to enable individual interrupt mode for externals
in the subtype code and calls that from the titan board code
instead of doing it directly.
- I changed the shift in the ipr_data to be the actual # of bits to
shift, instead of the numnber / 4 - made it easier to match with
the manual.

Since all of the sys_timer sources currently do this on their own
within the ->get_offset() path, it's more sensible to just have
the caller take care of it when grabbing xtime_lock. Incidentally,
this is more in line with what others (ie, ARM) are doing already.

Previously this was using a static pgd shift in the reporting
code, simply flip this to PGDIR_SHIFT which does the right
thing depending on varying PTE magnitudes on the SH-X2 MMU.
While we're at it, and since it's been recently added, use
get_TTB() for fetching the TTB, rather than the open coded

The end of the store queue bitmap is miscalculated when searching
for a free range in sq_remap(), missing the PAGE_SHIFT shift that's
done in sq_api_init(). This runs in to workloads where we can scan
beyond the end of the bitmap.

This makes the early printk support somewhat more flexible,
moving the port definition to a config option, and making the
port initialization configurable for sh-ipl+g users.
At the same time, this allows us to trivially wire up the

There were a number of places that made evil PAGE_SIZE == 4k
assumptions that ended up breaking when trying to play with
8k and 64k page sizes, this fixes those up.
The most significant change is the way we load THREAD_SIZE,
previously this was done via:
mov #(THREAD_SIZE >> 8), reg
shll8 reg
to avoid a memory access and allow the immediate load. With
a 64k PAGE_SIZE, we're out of range for the immediate load
size without resorting to special instructions available in
later ISAs (movi20s and so on). The "workaround" for this is
to bump up the shift to 10 and insert a shll2, which gives a
bit more flexibility while still being much cheaper than a
memory access.

The implementation of system call tracing in the kernel has a
couple of ordering problems:
- the validity of the system call number is checked before
calling out to system call tracing code, and should be
done after
- the system call number used when tracing is the one the
system call was invoked with, while the system call tracing
code can legitimatly change the call number (for example
strace permutes fork into clone)
This patch fixes both of these problems, and also reoders the
code slightly to make the direct path through the code the
common case.

Previously big endian was simply assumed if little endian was

This adds some preliminary support for the SH-X2 MMU, used by
newer SH-4A parts (particularly SH7785).
This MMU implements a 'compat' mode with SH-X MMUs and an
'extended' mode for SH-X2 extended features. Extended features
include additional page sizes (8kB, 4MB, 64MB), as well as the
addition of page execute permissions.
The extended mode attributes are placed in a second data array,
which requires us to switch to 64-bit PTEs when in X2 mode.
With the addition of the exec perms, we also overhaul the mmap
prots somewhat, now that it's possible to handle them more
intelligently.

This drops the various IRQ headers that were floating around
