The ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB config option will select GPIOLIB which
in turn will select GENERIC_GPIO. Because of this, there is no
reason to do the select GENERIC_GPIO in arch/arm/Kconfig for the
architectures that have ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB.

This is a reworking of an original patch posted by Aaro Koskinen:
oprofile does not work with PM, because sysdev_suspend() is done with
interrupts disabled and oprofile needs a mutex. Implementing oprofile
as a platform device solves this problem.

Enable hardware perf-events if CPU_HAS_PMU and select
HAVE_OPROFILE if HAVE_PERF_EVENTS. If no hardware support
is present, OProfile will fall back to timer mode.
This patch also removes the old OProfile drivers in favour
of the code implemented by perf.

There are currently two hardware performance monitoring subsystems in
the kernel for ARM: OProfile and perf-events. This creates the
following problems:
1.) Duplicate PMU accessor code. Inevitable code drift may lead to
bugs in one framework that are fixed in the other.
2.) Locking issues. OProfile doesn't reprogram hardware counters
between profiling runs if the events to be monitored have not been
changed. This means that other profiling frameworks cannot use the
counters if OProfile is in use.
3.) Due to differences in the two frameworks, it may not be possible to
compare the results obtained by OProfile with those obtained by perf.
This patch removes the OProfile PMU driver code and replaces it with
calls to perf, therefore solving the issues mentioned above.
The only userspace-visible change is the lack of SCU counter support
for 11MPCore. This is currently unsupported by OProfile userspace tools anyway and therefore shouldn't cause any problems.

For OProfile to initialise oprofilefs correctly, it needs to know
the number of counters it can represent.
This patch adds a function to the ARM perf-events backend to return
the number of hardware counters available for the current PMU.

The perf-events framework for ARM only supports v6 and v7 cores.

The ARM perf-events framework provides support for a number of different
PMUs using struct arm_pmu. The char *name field of this struct can be
used to identify the PMU, but this is cumbersome if used outside of perf.
This patch replaces the name string for a PMU with an enum, which holds
a unique ID for the PMU being represented. This ID can be used to index
an array of names within perf, so no functionality is lost. The presence
of the ID field, allows other kernel subsystems [currently oprofile] to
use their own mappings for the PMU name.

The current PMU infrastructure for ARM requires that the IRQs for the PMU
device are fixed at compile time and are selected based on the ARCH_ or MACH_ flags. This has the disadvantage of tying the Kernel down to a
particular board as far as profiling is concerned.
This patch replaces the compile-time IRQ registration with a runtime mechanism which allows the IRQs to be registered with the framework as
a platform_device.
A further advantage of this change is that there is scope for registering
different types of performance counters in the future by changing the id
of the platform_device and attaching different resources to it.

Provide a configuration option to allow the ARMv6 to use normal
bufferable memory for coherent DMA. This option is forced to 'y'
for ARMv7, and offered as a configuration option on ARMv6.
Enabling this option requires drivers to have the necessary barriers
to ensure that data in DMA coherent memory is visible prior to the
DMA operation commencing.

Between "clean D line..." and "invalidate I line" operations in
v7_coherent_user_range(), the memory page may get swapped out.
And the fault on "invalidate I line" could not be properly handled
causing the oops.
In ARMv6 "external abort on linefetch" replaced by "instruction cache
maintenance fault". Let's handle it as translation fault. It fixes the
issue.
I'm not sure if it's reasonable to check arch version in run-time.
Let's do it in compile time for now.

The L310 cache controller's interface is almost identical
to the L210. One major difference is that the PL310 can
have up to 16 ways.
This change uses the cache's part ID and the Associativity
bits in the AUX_CTRL register to determine the number of ways.
Also, this version prints out the CACHE_ID and AUX_CTRL registers.
