The Microblaze implementations of get_user() and (MMU) put_user() evaluate
the address argument more than once. This causes unexpected side-effects for
invocations that include increment operators, i.e. get_user(foo, bar++).
This patch also removes the distinction between MMU and noMMU put_user().

Microblaze cacheline length is configurable and current cpu
uses two cacheline length 4 and 8.
We are taking conservative maximum value to be sure that cacheline
alignment is satisfied for all cases.
Here is the calculation for cacheline lenght 8 32bit=4Byte values
which is corresponding with SHIFT 5.

Based on PowerPC patche 52142e756e
PowerPC description:
On platforms doing non-coherent DMA (4xx, 8xx, ...), it's important
that the kmalloc minimum alignment is set to the cache line size, to
avoid sharing cache lines between different objects, so that DMA to
one of the objects doesn't corrupt the other.

This patch fix consistent code which had problems with consistent_free
function.
I am not sure if we need to call flush_tlb_all after it but it keeps
tlbs synced.
I added noMMU and MMU version together.
Uncached shadow feature is not tested.

Current implementation doesn't handle dcache_line_length
correctly that's why is better to use generic memcpy.
Cache optimized function could be good way howto improve
performance but must be based on benchmarking not blind
function like this.

Remove section mismatch - based on ppc aproach.
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x64834): Section mismatch in reference
from the function __pte_alloc_kernel() to the function .init.text:early_get_page()
The function __pte_alloc_kernel() references
the function __init early_get_page().
This is often because __pte_alloc_kernel lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of early_get_page is wrong.

Add new io big-endian function. They will be used
for uartlite and spi driver.

Here is small regression on dhrystone tests and I think
that on all benchmarking tests. It is due to better checking
mechanism in put_user macro
