S5PC100 is a new SoC with ARM coretex-A8 and numerous peripherals. This SoC is
successor of S3C64XX. S5PC100 has peripherals which are still similar to S3C
families so some drivers in "arch/arm/plat-s3c" can be shared. S5PC100 specific
drivers will be added in "arch/arm/plat-s5pcxx" or "arch/arm/mach-s5pc100"

before this patch ARM had it's own definition of CONFIG_PREEMPT.
Instead of that use the general definition provided in
kernel/Kconfig.preempt.
This patch changes the available options in *config. Namely PREEMPT
isn't a stand alone bool anymore, but part of a 'choice' the
following Kconfig symbols are added:
PREEMPT_NONE
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY
Selecting PREEMPT_NONE now produces exactly the code as not selecting
PREEMPT before (apart from a comment in
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/(per_cpu/cpuX/)?trace). The only difference
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY does is that might_resched might reschedule. Both
should't introduce regressions.

This patch provides initial support for CPU frequency scaling on the
Samsung S3C ARM processors. Currently only S3C6410 processors are
supported, though addition of another data table with supported clock
rates should be sufficient to enable support for further CPUs.
Use the regulator framework to provide optional support for DVFS in
the S3C cpufreq driver. When a software controllable regulator is
configured the driver will use it to lower the supply voltage when
running at a lower frequency, giving improved power savings.
When regulator support is disabled or no regulator can be obtained
for VDDARM the driver will fall back to scaling only the frequency.

This implements {copy_to,clear}_user() by faulting in the userland
pages and then using the regular kernel mem{cpy,set}() to copy the
data (while holding the page table lock). This is a win if the regular
mem{cpy,set}() implementations are faster than the user copy functions,
which is the case e.g. on Feroceon, where 8-word STMs (which memcpy()
uses under the right conditions) give significantly higher memory write
throughput than a sequence of individual 32bit stores.
Here are numbers for page sized buffers on some Feroceon cores:
- copy_to_user on Orion5x goes from 51 MB/s to 83 MB/s
- clear_user on Orion5x goes from 89MB/s to 314MB/s
- copy_to_user on Kirkwood goes from 240 MB/s to 356 MB/s
- clear_user on Kirkwood goes from 367 MB/s to 1108 MB/s
- copy_to_user on Disco-Duo goes from 248 MB/s to 398 MB/s
- clear_user on Disco-Duo goes from 328 MB/s to 1741 MB/s
Because the setup cost is non negligible, this is worthwhile only if
the amount of data to copy is large enough. The operation falls back
to the standard implementation when the amount of data is below a certain
threshold. This threshold was determined empirically, however some targets
could benefit from a lower runtime determined value for optimal results
eventually.
In the copy_from_user() case, this technique does not provide any
worthwhile performance gain due to the fact that any kind of read access
allocates the cache and subsequent 32bit loads are just as fast as the
equivalent 8-word LDM.

Provide a generic SRAM allocator using genalloc, and vaguely
modeled after what AVR32 uses. This builds on top of the
static CPU mapping set up in the previous patch, and returns
DMA mappings as requested (if possible).
Compared to its OMAP cousin, there's no current support for
(currently non-existent) DaVinci power management code running
in SRAM; and this has ways to deallocate, instead of being
allocate-only.
The initial user of this should probably be the audio code,
because EDMA from DDR is subject to various dropouts on at
least DM355 and DM6446 chips.

pfn_valid() is meant to be able to tell if a given PFN has valid memmap
associated with it or not. In FLATMEM, it is expected that holes always
have valid memmap as long as there is valid PFNs either side of the hole.
In SPARSEMEM, it is assumed that a valid section has a memmap for the
entire section.
However, ARM and maybe other embedded architectures in the future free
memmap backing holes to save memory on the assumption the memmap is never
used. The page_zone linkages are then broken even though pfn_valid()
returns true. A walker of the full memmap must then do this additional
check to ensure the memmap they are looking at is sane by making sure the
zone and PFN linkages are still valid. This is expensive, but walkers of
the full memmap are extremely rare.
This was caught before for FLATMEM and hacked around but it hits again for
SPARSEMEM because the page_zone linkages can look ok where the PFN linkages
are totally screwed. This looks like a hatchet job but the reality is that
any clean solution would end up consumning all the memory saved by punching
these unexpected holes in the memmap. For example, we tried marking the
memmap within the section invalid but the section size exceeds the size of
the hole in most cases so pfn_valid() starts returning false where valid
memmap exists. Shrinking the size of the section would increase memory
consumption offsetting the gains.
This patch identifies when an architecture is punching unexpected holes
in the memmap that the memory model cannot automatically detect and sets
ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL. At the moment, this is restricted to EP93xx
which is the model sub-architecture this has been reported on but may expand
later. When set, walkers of the full memmap must call memmap_valid_within()
for each PFN and passing in what it expects the page and zone to be for
that PFN. If it finds the linkages to be broken, it assumes the memmap is
invalid for that PFN.
