Patch from Lennert Buytenhek
This patch adds support for the new XScale v3 core. This is an
ARMv5 ISA core with the following additions:
- L2 cache
- I/O coherency support (on select chipsets)
- Low-Locality Reference cache attributes (replaces mini-cache)
- Supersections (v6 compatible)
- 36-bit addressing (v6 compatible)
- Single instruction cache line clean/invalidate
- LRU cache replacement (vs round-robin)
I attempted to merge the XSC3 support into proc-xscale.S, but XSC3
cores have separate errata and have to handle things like L2, so it
is simpler to keep it separate.
L2 cache support is currently a build option because the L2 enable
bit must be set before we enable the MMU and there is no easy way to
capture command line parameters at this point.
There are still optimizations that can be done such as using LLR for
copypage (in theory using the exisiting mini-cache code) but those
can be addressed down the road.

arch/arm/kernel/entry-armv.S has contained a comment suggesting
that asm/hardware.h and asm/arch/irqs.h should be moved into the
asm/arch/entry-macro.S include. So move the includes to these
two files as required.
Add missing includes (asm/hardware.h, asm/io.h) to asm/arch/system.h
includes which use those facilities, and remove asm/io.h from
kernel/process.c.
Remove other unnecessary includes from arch/arm/kernel, arch/arm/mm
and arch/arm/mach-footbridge.

This adds the necessary changes to ensure that we flush the
caches correctly with aliasing VIPT caches.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
