d80e2bb126 [AVR32] Get rid of board_setup_fbmem()
Since the core setup code takes care of both allocation and
reservation of framebuffer memory, there's no need for this board-
specific hook anymore. Replace it with two global variables,
fbmem_start and fbmem_size, which can be used directly.

d8011768e6 [AVR32] Simplify early handling of memory regions
Use struct resource to specify both physical memory regions and
reserved regions and push everything into the same framework,
including kernel code/data and initrd memory. This allows us to get
rid of many special cases in the bootmem initialization and will also
make it easier to implement more robust handling of framebuffer
memory later.

7d1362c0d0 [PATCH] cleanup asm/setup.h userspace visibility
Make the contents of the userspace asm/setup.h header consistent on all
architectures:

 - export setup.h to userspace on all architectures
 - export only COMMAND_LINE_SIZE to userspace
 - frv: move COMMAND_LINE_SIZE from param.h
 - i386: remove duplicate COMMAND_LINE_SIZE from param.h
 - arm:
   - export ATAGs to userspace
   - change u8/u16/u32 to __u8/__u16/__u32

5f97f7f940 [PATCH] avr32 architecture
This adds support for the Atmel AVR32 architecture as well as the AT32AP7000
CPU and the AT32STK1000 development board.

AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for
cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power
consumption and high code density.  The AVR32 architecture is not binary
compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR architectures.

The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf

The Atmel AT32AP7000 is the first CPU implementing the AVR32 architecture.  It
features a 7-stage pipeline, 16KB instruction and data caches and a full
Memory Management Unit.  It also comes with a large set of integrated
peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 ARM-based controllers from
Atmel.

Full data sheet is available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32003.pdf

while the CPU core implementation including caches and MMU is documented by
the AVR32 AP Technical Reference, available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf

Information about the AT32STK1000 development board can be found at

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918

including a BSP CD image with an earlier version of this patch, development
tools (binaries and source/patches) and a root filesystem image suitable for
booting from SD card.

Alternatively, there's a preliminary "getting started" guide available at
http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted which provides links
to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling
environment for avr32-linux.

This patch, as well as the other patches included with the BSP and the
toolchain patches, is actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
