This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.
This patch:
Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts.
Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

This patch consolidate all definitions of .init.text, .init.data
and .exit.text, .exit.data section definitions in
the generic vmlinux.lds.h.
This is a preparational patch - alone it does not buy
us much good.

This patch removes interrupt priority tables from the intc code.
Optimal priority assignment varies with embedded application anyway,
so keeping the interrupt priority tables together with cpu-specific
code doesn't make sense.
The function intc_set_priority() should be used instead to set the
desired interrupt priority level.

This adds in the L1I/L1D/L2 cache shape support to their respective
entries in the ELF auxvt, based on the Alpha implementation. We use
this on the userspace libc side for calculating a tightly packed
SHMLBA amongst other things.

Presently most of the 29-bit physical parts do P1/P2 segmentation
with a 1:1 cached/uncached mapping, jumping between the two to
control the caching behaviour. This provides the basic infrastructure
to maintain this behaviour on 32-bit physical parts that don't map
P1/P2 at all, using a shiny new linker section and corresponding
fixmap entry.

This implements kernel-level atomic rollback built on top of gUSA,
as an alternative non-IRQ based atomicity method. This is generally
a faster method for platforms that are lacking the LL/SC pairs that
SH-4A and later use, and is only supportable on legacy cores.

Shoves a magic word in to the empty_zero_page section for the
bootloader to work out whether to start the kernel in 29-bit
or 32-bit mode.
[ Renesas CPUs already take care of the initial PMB mappings entirely
in hardware and decide on 29-bit/32-bit physical depending on which
pin powered up the CPU, so this is mostly for ST parts. -- PFM ].

This adds support for the SH7263 (SH-2A) CPU.
This particular CPU is a superset of SH7203, adding some additional
peripheral blocks and hooking up additional (reserved on SH7203)
vectors in the INTC block.
No visibly nasty surprises, yet..
