Starting with ARMv6, the CPUs support the BE-8 variant of big-endian
(byte-invariant). This patch adds the core support:
- setting of the BE-8 mode via the CPSR.E register for both kernel and
user threads
- big-endian page table walking
- REV used to rotate instructions read from memory during fault
processing as they are still little-endian format
- Kconfig and Makefile support for BE-8. The --be8 option must be passed
to the final linking stage to convert the instructions to
little-endian

This patch updates the Makefile and Kconfig entries for OMAP4. The OMAP4430 SDP
board file supports only minimal set of drivers.

arch-imx is superseeded by the MXC architecture support.
This patch removes arch-imx from the build system.

This hooks the U300 support into Kbuild and makes a small hook
in mmu.c for supporting an odd memory alignment with shared memory
on these systems.
This is rebased to RMK:s GIT HEAD. This patch tries to add the
Kconfig option in alphabetic order by option text and the Makefile
entry after config symbol.

"""The Marvell® PXA168 processor is the first in a family of application
processors targeted at mass market opportunities in computing and consumer
devices. It balances high computing and multimedia performance with low
power consumption to support extended battery life, and includes a wealth
of integrated peripherals to reduce overall BOM cost .... """

1. Marvell Mohawk core is a hybrid of xscale3 and its own ARM core,
there are many enhancements like instructions for flushing the
whole D-cache, and so on
2. Clock reuses Russell's common clkdev, and added the basic support
for UART1/2.
3. Devices are a bit different from the 'mach-pxa' way, the platform
devices are now dynamically allocated only when necessary (i.e.
when pxa_register_device() is called). Description for each device
are stored in an array of 'struct pxa_device_desc'. Now that:
a. this array of device description is marked with __initdata and
can be freed up system is fully up
b. which means board code has to add all needed devices early in
his initializing function
c. platform specific data can now be marked as __initdata since
they are allocated and copied by platform_device_add_data()
4. only the basic UART1/2/3 are added, more devices will come later.

1. introduce folder of 'arch/arm/plat-pxa' for common code across different
PXA processor families
2. initially moved DMA code into plat-pxa
3. common code in <mach/dma.h> moved into <plat/dma.h>, new processors
should implement its own <mach/dma.h>, provide the following required
definitions and '#include <plat/dma.h>' in the end:
- DMAC_REGS_VIRT for mapped virtual address of the DMA registers'
physical I/O memory

This patch also makes the frame pointer default to y only if
!ARM_UNWIND. LOCKDEP no longer selects FRAME_POINTER if ARM_UNWIND is
enabled.

Initial architecture support for the S3C24A0 ARCH_S3C24A0.
We don't yet add an kconfig entry in the main arch/arm/Kconfig
file as the series is not complete, so that is left until enough
support is in to be useful.

Compilation for the Feroceon core should use -mtune=marvell-f. This is
available in Code Sourcery's 2008Q3 release at the moment. Otherwise
fall back to -mtune-=xscale.
