The MMU context_lock can be taken from switch_mm() while the
rq->lock is held. The rq->lock can also be taken from interrupts,
thus if we get interrupted in destroy_context() with the context
lock held and that interrupt tries to take the rq->lock, there's
a possible deadlock scenario with another CPU having the rq->lock
and calling switch_mm() which takes our context lock.
The fix is to always ensure interrupts are off when taking our
context lock. The switch_mm() path is already good so this fixes
the destroy_context() path.
While at it, turn the context lock into a new style spinlock.

This patch fixes a couple of issues that can happen as a result
of steal_context() dropping the context_lock when all possible
PIDs are ineligible for stealing (hopefully an extremely hard to
hit occurence).
This case exposes the possibility of a stale context_mm[] entry
to be seen since destroy_context() doesn't clear it and the free
map isn't re-tested. It also means steal_context() will not notice
a context freed while the lock was help, thus possibly trying to
steal a context when a free one was available.
This fixes it by always returning to the caller from steal_context
when it dropped the lock with a return value that causes the
caller to re-samble the number of free contexts, along with
properly clearing the context_mm[] array for destroyed contexts.

Added support for the new xps tft controller. The new core
has PLB interface support in addition to existing DCR interface.
Removed platform device support as both MicroBlaze and PowerPC
use device tree.
Previously, the dcr interface was assumed to be used in mmio mode,
and the register space of the dcr interface was precomputed and stuffed
into the device tree. This driver now makes use of the new dcr
infrastructure to represent the dcr interface. This enables the dcr
interface to be connected directly to a native dcr interface in a clean
way.
Added compatibility for ml507 dvi core.

It was __devinit, but it is also within a CONFIG_HOTPLUG guarded section
of code, so the __devinit does nothing but cause the following warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x107a8): Section mismatch in reference from the function pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus() to the function .devinit.text:pcibios_claim_one_bus()
The function pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus() references
the function __devinit pcibios_claim_one_bus().
This is often because pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus lacks a __devinit
annotation or the annotation of pcibios_claim_one_bus is wrong.
It is also only (externally) used in arch/powerpc/kernel/of_platform.c
which cannot be built as a module so don't export it.

RTAS event scan has to run across all cpus. Right now we use a kernel
thread and set_cpus_allowed but in doing so we wake up the previous cpu
unnecessarily.
Some ftrace output shows this:
previous cpu (2):
[002] 7.022331: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] ==> rtasd:194 [120]
[002] 7.022338: sched_switch: task rtasd:194 [120] ==> migration/2:9 [0]
[002] 7.022344: sched_switch: task migration/2:9 [0] ==> swapper:0 [140]
next cpu (3):
[003] 7.022345: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] ==> rtasd:194 [120]
[003] 7.022371: sched_switch: task rtasd:194 [120] ==> swapper:0 [140]
We can use schedule_delayed_work_on and avoid the unnecessary wakeup.

The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a
Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing
actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there),
or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single
PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual
address space.
This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically
locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole
in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that
area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes
from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but
grew its own fixes.
