26b7a78c55 sh: Lazy dcache writeback optimizations.
This converts the lazy dcache handling to the model described in
Documentation/cachetlb.txt and drops the ptep_get_and_clear() hacks
used for the aliasing dcaches on SH-4 and SH7705 in 32kB mode. As a
bonus, this slightly cuts down on the cache flushing frequency.

With that and the PTEA handling out of the way, the update_mmu_cache()
implementations can be consolidated, and we no longer have to worry
about which configuration the cache is in for the SH7705 case.

And finally, explicitly disable the lazy writeback on SMP (SH-4A).

ec8c0446b6 [PATCH] Optimize D-cache alias handling on fork
Virtually index, physically tagged cache architectures can get away
without cache flushing when forking.  This patch adds a new cache
flushing function flush_cache_dup_mm(struct mm_struct *) which for the
moment I've implemented to do the same thing on all architectures
except on MIPS where it's a no-op.

f3c2575818 sh: Calculate shm alignment at runtime.
Set the SHM alignment at runtime, based off of probed cache desc.
Optimize get_unmapped_area() to only colour align shared mappings.

c470662854 sh: Fixup SHMLBA definition for SH7705.
We need this set to something sensible anywhere were we have
an aliasing dcache..

26ff6c11ef sh: page table alloc cleanups and page fault optimizations.
Cleanup of page table allocators, using generic folded PMD and PUD
helpers. TLB flushing operations are moved to a more sensible spot.

The page fault handler is also optimized slightly, we no longer waste
cycles on IRQ disabling for flushing of the page from the ITLB, since
we're already under CLI protection by the initial exception handler.

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!
