Mathieu Desnoyers pointed out that the ARM barriers were lacking:
- cmpxchg, xchg and atomic add return need memory barriers on
architectures which can reorder the relative order in which memory
read/writes can be seen between CPUs, which seems to include recent
ARM architectures. Those barriers are currently missing on ARM.
- test_and_xxx_bit were missing SMP barriers.
So put these barriers in. Provide separate atomic_add/atomic_sub
operations which do not require barriers.

Our signal syscall restart handling for these kernels still uses
the userspace stack to build code for restarting the syscall.
Unfortunately, fixing this is non-trivial, and so for the time
being, we resolve the problem by disabling NX support.

From: Bruce Ashfield <bruce.ashfield@windriver.com>
To fully support the armv7-a instruction set/optimizations, support
for the R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC and R_ARM_MOVT_ABS relocation types is
required.
The MOVW and MOVT are both load-immediate instructions, MOVW loads 16
bits into the bottom half of a register, and MOVT loads 16 bits into the
top half of a register.
The relocation information for these instructions has a full 32 bit
value, plus an addend which is stored in the 16 immediate bits in the
instruction itself. The immediate bits in the instruction are not
contiguous (the register # splits it into a 4 bit and 12 bit value),
so the addend has to be extracted accordingly and added to the value.
The value is then split and put into the instruction; a MOVW uses the
bottom 16 bits of the value, and a MOVT uses the top 16 bits.

Kernel 2.6.30-rc1 added sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to most archs
but not ARM, resulting in
<stdin>:1421:2: warning: #warning syscall preadv not implemented
<stdin>:1425:2: warning: #warning syscall pwritev not implemented
This patch adds sys_preadv and sys_pwritev to ARM.
These syscalls simply take five long-sized parameters, so they
should have no calling-convention/ABI issues in the kernel.
Tested on armv5tel eabi using a preadv/pwritev test program posted
on linuxppc-dev earlier this month.
It would be nice to get this into the kernel before 2.6.30 final,
so that glibc's kernel version feature test for these syscalls
doesn't have to special-case ARM.

It would seem when building kernel modules with modern binutils
(required by modern GCC) for ARM v4T targets (specifically observed
with the Samsung 24xx SoC which is an 920T) R_ARM_V4BX relocations
are emitted for function epilogues.
This manifests at module load time with an "unknown relocation: 40"
error message.
The following patch adds the R_ARM_V4BX relocation to the ARM kernel
module loader. The relocation operation is taken from that within the
binutils bfd library.

OMAP wishes to pass state to the boot loader upon reboot in order to
instruct it whether to wait for USB-based reflashing or not. There is
already a facility to do this via the reboot() syscall, except we ignore
the string passed to machine_restart().
This patch fixes things to pass this string to arch_reset(). This means
that we keep the reboot mode limited to telling the kernel _how_ to
perform the reboot which should be independent of what we request the
boot loader to do.

On ARM it doesn't make sense to trace a naked function because then
mcount is called without stack and frame pointer being set up and there
is no chance to restore the lr register to the value before mcount was

Impact: __per_cpu_load available on all SMP capable archs
Percpu now requires three symbols to be defined - __per_cpu_load,
__per_cpu_start and __per_cpu_end. There were three archs which
didn't have it. Update them as follows.
* powerpc: can use generic PERCPU() macro. Compile tested for
powerpc32, compile/boot tested for powerpc64.
* ia64: can use generic PERCPU_VADDR() macro. __phys_per_cpu_start is
identical to __per_cpu_load. Compile tested and symbol table looks
identical after the change except for the additional __per_cpu_load.
* arm: added explicit __per_cpu_load definition. Currently uses
unified .init output section so can't use the generic macro. Dunno
whether the unified .init ouput section is required by arch
peculiarity so I left it alone. Please break it up and use PERCPU()
if possible.

gcc seems to expect that lr isn't clobbered by mcount, because for a
function starting with:
static int func(void)
{
void *ra = __builtin_return_address(0);
printk(KERN_EMERG "__builtin_return_address(0) = %pS\n", ra)
...
the following assembler is generated by gcc 4.3.2:
0: e1a0c00d mov ip, sp
4: e92dd810 push {r4, fp, ip, lr, pc}
8: e24cb004 sub fp, ip, #4 ; 0x4
c: ebfffffe bl 0 <mcount>
10: e59f0034 ldr r0, [pc, #52]
14: e1a0100e mov r1, lr
18: ebfffffe bl 0 <printk>
Without this patch obviously __builtin_return_address(0) yields
func+0x10 instead of the return address of the caller.
Note this patch fixes a similar issue for the routines used with dynamic
ftrace even though this isn't currently selectable for ARM.
