This patch adds timer support for the i.MX machine family. This code can
be used on the following machs:
- i.MX1 (tested)
- i.MX2 (i.MX21 (to be tested), i.MX27 (tested))
- i.MX3 (i.MX31 (tested))
TODO: It seems impossible to build a kernel for more than one CPU because the
timer do not follow the platform device rules. So it does only work if
timer 1 can be accessed on all CPUs at the same address.

It's plain wrong for PCMCIA to select HAVE_IDE that implies e.g. the
availability of an asm/ide.h
It turns out this was done for ARM, and we can simply always select
HAVE_IDE on ARM instead of manually tracking which platforms might
possible have an IDE controller directly or indirectly.

Mark arches that support A.OUT format by including the following in their

This should also be set if the arch provides compatibility A.OUT support for

Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Add an empty drivers/gpio directory for gpiolib infrastructure and GPIO
expanders. It will be populated by later patches.
This won't be the only place to hold such gpio_chip code. Many external chips
add a few GPIOs as secondary functionality (such as MFD drivers) and platform
code frequently needs to closely integrate GPIO and IRQ support.
This is placed *early* in the build/link sequence since it's common for other
drivers to depend on GPIOs to do their work, so they must be initialized early
in the device_initcall() sequence.

device is used to broadcast events to the other CPUs. The patch also
adds the declaration for the dummy_timer_setup function (the equivalent

Due to the way clockevents work, the dummy timer on the first CPU has to

Currently, the atags used by kexec are fixed to the ones originally used
to boot the kernel. This is less than ideal as changing the commandline,
initrd and other options would be a useful feature.
This patch exports the atags used for the current kernel to userspace
through an "atags" file in procfs. The presence of the file is
controlled by its own Kconfig option and cleans up several ifdef blocks
into a separate file. The tags for the new kernel are assumed to be at
a fixed location before the kernel image itself. The location of the
tags used to boot the original kernel is unimportant and no longer
saved.
