6ac5c61082 sparc: replace uses of CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR
CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }

Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)

Which formalizes this practice.  One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).

c9f5b7e77c sparc: move of_device common code to of_device_common
This patch moves code common to of_device_32.c and of_device_64.c into
of_device_common.h and of_device_common.c.

The only functional difference is in sparc32 where of_bus_default_map is
used in place of of_bus_sbus_map because they are equivelent.

There is still room for further code consolidation with some minor
refactoring.

Boot tested on sparc32 and compile tested on sparc64.

797a756865 sparc: use dma_map_page instead of dma_map_single
This patch converts dma_map_single and dma_unmap_single to use
map_page and unmap_page respectively and removes unnecessary
map_single and unmap_single. map_page can be used to implement
map_single but the opposite is impossible. Having only dma_map_page in
struct dma_ops is enough.

280ff97494 sparc64: fix and optimize irq distribution
irq_choose_cpu() should compare the affinity mask against cpu_online_map
rather than CPU_MASK_ALL, since irq_select_affinity() sets the interrupt's
affinity mask to cpu_online_map "and" CPU_MASK_ALL (which ends up being
just cpu_online_map).  The mask comparison in irq_choose_cpu() will always
fail since the two masks are not the same.  So the CPU chosen is the first CPU
in the intersection of cpu_online_map and CPU_MASK_ALL, which is always CPU0.
That means all interrupts are reassigned to CPU0...

Distributing interrupts to CPUs in a linearly increasing round robin fashion
is not optimal for the UltraSPARC T1/T2.  Also, the irq_rover in
irq_choose_cpu() causes an interrupt to be assigned to a different
processor each time the interrupt is allocated and released.  This may lead
to an unbalanced distribution over time.

A static mapping of interrupts to processors is done to optimize and balance
interrupt distribution.  For the T1/T2, interrupts are spread to different
cores first, and then to strands within a core.

The following is some benchmarks showing the effects of interrupt
distribution on a T2.  The test was done with iperf using a pair of T5220
boxes, each with a 10GBe NIU (XAUI) connected back to back.

  TCP     | Stock       Linear RR IRQ  Optimized IRQ

0c243ad81f sparc64: Only allocate per-cpu areas for possible cpus.
This gets us real close to the generic implementation of
setup_per_cpu_areas() except:

1) We store the per-cpu offset into the trap_block[], whereas
   the generic code has it's own static array.

2) We have to initialize the %g5 register to hold the boot cpu's
   per-cpu area offset.

3) The OBP/MDESC cpu info scan is performed at the end.

73fffc037e sparc64: Get rid of real_setup_per_cpu_areas().
Now that we defer the cpu_data() initializations to the end of per-cpu
setup, we can get rid of this local hack we had to setup the per-cpu
areas eary.

This is a necessary step in order to support HAVE_DYNAMIC_PER_CPU_AREA
since the per-cpu setup must run when page structs are available.

bb6e647051 avr32: Fix oops on unaligned user access
The unaligned address exception handler (and others) does not scan the
fixup tables before oopsing. This is bad because it means passing a
badly aligned pointer from user space might crash the kernel.

Fix this by scanning the fixup tables in _exception(). This should
resolve the issue for unaligned addresses as well as other less common
exceptions that might be happening during a userspace access. The page
fault handler already does fixup processing.
