Rewrite to use the `reorder' assembly mode and remove manually scheduled
delay slots except where GAS cannot schedule a delay-slot instruction
due to a data dependency or a section switch (as is the case with the EX
macro). No change in machine code produced.

Fix a commit 8a8158c85e ("MIPS: memset.S: EVA & fault support for
small_memset") regression and remove assembly warnings:
arch/mips/lib/memset.S: Assembler messages:
arch/mips/lib/memset.S:243: Warning: Macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions in a branch delay slot
triggering with the CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS option set and this code:
PTR_SUBU a2, t1, a0
jr ra
PTR_ADDIU a2, 1
This is because with that option in place the DADDIU instruction, which
the PTR_ADDIU CPP macro expands to, becomes a GAS macro, which in turn
expands to an LI/DADDU (or actually ADDIU/DADDU) sequence:
13c: 01a4302f dsubu a2,t1,a0
140: 03e00008 jr ra
144: 24010001 li at,1
148: 00c1302d daddu a2,a2,at
...
Correct this by switching off the `noreorder' assembly mode and letting
GAS schedule this jump's delay slot, as there is nothing special about
it that would require manual scheduling. With this change in place
correct code is produced:
13c: 01a4302f dsubu a2,t1,a0
140: 24010001 li at,1
144: 03e00008 jr ra
148: 00c1302d daddu a2,a2,at

In much the same vein as commit ac41f9c462 ("MIPS: Remove a temporary
hack for debugging cache flushes in SMTC configuration") and commit
eb75ecb113 ("MIPS: MT: Remove unused MT single-threaded cache flush
code"), remove the long obsolete ndflush & niflush command line
arguments which provided a hack that should not be useful outside of
debug sessions performed long ago.

Commit ac41f9c462 ("MIPS: Remove a temporary hack for debugging cache
flushes in SMTC configuration") removed an ugly hack that allowed cache
flushing to be performed single-threaded, something which should not be
necessary outside of debug sessions performed long ago.
Whilst the hack was removed from the cache flush code itself, the
mt_protdflush & mt_protiflush variables were left behind along with code
providing the protdflush & protiflush command line arguments. The
mt_cflush_lockdown() & mt_cflush_release() functions were also left
behind but are now entirely unused.
Remove all the unused code to complete the removal of the MT ASE
single-threaded cache flush hack.

MIPSR6 CPUs do not support unaligned load/store instructions
(LWL, LWR, SWL, SWR and LDL, LDR, SDL, SDR for 64bit).
Currently the MIPS tree has some special cases to avoid these
instructions, and the code is testing for !CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6.
This patch declares a new Kconfig variable:
CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LOAD_STORE_LR.
This variable indicates that the CPU supports these instructions.
Then, the patch does the following:
- Carefully selects this option on all CPUs except MIPSR6.
- Switches all the special cases to test for the new variable,
and inverts the logic:
'#ifndef CONFIG_CPU_MIPSR6' turns into
'#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_HAS_LOAD_STORE_LR'
and vice-versa.
Also, when this variable is NOT selected (e.g. MIPSR6),
CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM will default to 'y', to compile generic
C checksum code (instead of special assembly code that uses the
unsupported instructions).
This commit should not affect any existing CPU, and is required
for future Lexra CPU support, that misses these instructions too.

Since commit 15f37e1588 ("MIPS: store the appended
dtb address in a variable"),
in kernels with MIPS_RAW_APPENDED_DTB=y, the early boot code detects
the dtb and stores it in the 'fw_passed_dtb' variable.
However, the dtb is not stored in 'fw_passed_dtb' in kernels with
MIPS_ELF_APPENDED_DTB=y.
Under MIPS_ELF_APPENDED_DTB=y, the dtb is also located in the
__appended_dtb section, so we just need to update the #ifdef.
This will allow to access the dtb in a more uniform way.

Out-of-tree platforms may not be based on Generic as shown in customer
communication. Share the prepare method with all using UHI boot protocol,
and put into machine_kexec.c.
The benefit is that, when having kexec_args related problems, developers
will naturally look into machine_kexec.c, where "CONFIG_UHI_BOOT" will be
found, prompting them to add "select UHI_BOOT" to the platform Kconfig. It
would otherwise require a lot debugging or online searching to be aware
that the solution is in Generic code.

The existing implementation lets machine_kexec() CPU jump to reboot code
buffer, whereas other CPUs to relocated_kexec_smp_wait. The natural way to
bring up an SMP new kernel would be to let CPU0 do it while others being
halted. For those failing to do so, fall back to the jumping method.

New Loongson-3 (Loongson-3A R2, Loongson-3A R3, and newer) has SFB
(Store Fill Buffer) which can improve the performance of memory access.
Now, SFB enablement is controlled by CONFIG_LOONGSON3_ENHANCEMENT, and
the generic kernel has no benefit from SFB (even it is running on a new
Loongson-3 machine). With this patch, we can enable SFB at runtime by
detecting the CPU type (the expense is war_io_reorder_wmb() will always
be a 'sync', which will hurt the performance of old Loongson-3).
[paul.burton@mips.com: Further info from Huacai:
In practise, I found that sometimes there are boot failures if I
enable SFB/LPA in cpu_probe(). I don't know why because processor
designers also haven't give me an explaination, but I think this may
have some relationships to speculative execution.]
