23759dc643 [ARM] 3439/2: xsc3: add I/O coherency support
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

This patch adds support for the I/O coherent cache available on the
xsc3.  The approach is to provide a simple API to determine whether the
chipset supports coherency by calling arch_is_coherent() and then
setting the appropriate system memory PTE and PMD bits.  In addition,
we call this API on dma_alloc_coherent() and dma_map_single() calls.
A generic version exists that will compile out all the coherency-related
code that is not needed on the majority of ARM systems.

Note that we do not check for coherency in the dma_alloc_writecombine()
function as that still requires a special PTE setting.  We also don't
touch dma_mmap_coherent() as that is a special ARM-only API that is by
definition only used on non-coherent system.

7efb83002b [ARM] 3269/1: Add ARMv6 MT_NONSHARED_DEVICE mem_types[] index
Patch from George G. Davis

This Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. contributed patch adds mem_types[]
support for ARMv6 non-shared device memory region attributes. This
implementation provides support for only first level section mapped
non-shared devices. Second level non-shared device mappings are not
yet supported.

1426d7a81d [PATCH] vm: remove unused/broken page_pte[_prot] macros
This patch removes page_pte_prot and page_pte macros from all
architectures.  Some architectures define both, some only page_pte (broken)
and others none.  These macros are not used anywhere.

page_pte_prot(page, prot) is identical to mk_pte(page, prot) and
page_pte(page) is identical to page_pte_prot(page, __pgprot(0)).

* The following architectures define both page_pte_prot and page_pte

  arm, arm26, ia64, sh64, sparc, sparc64

* The following architectures define only page_pte (broken)

  frv, i386, m32r, mips, sh, x86-64

* All other architectures define neither

6626a7076d [ARM] Control v6 'global' bit via Linux PTE entries
Unfortunately, we can't use the "user" bit in the page tables to
control whether a page table entry is "global" or "asid" specific,
since the vector page is mapped as "user" accessible but is not
process specific.

Therefore, give direct control of the ARMv6 "nG" (not global)
bit to the mm layers.

5c3073e691 [PATCH] ARM: cleanup vmalloc start/offset macros

but allow a machine class to override them if required.

ARM define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as PAGE_SIZE (beyond the machine vectors when
they are mapped low), and use that definition in place of locally defined
MIN_MAP_ADDR.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
