Attempting to use the MPU while doing XIP out of parallel flash hooked up
to the async memory bus would often result in random crashes as the MPU
slowly corrupted memory.
The fallout here is that the async banks gain MPU protection from user
space too. So any accesses have to go through the mmap() interface rather
than just using hardcoded pointers.

Sometimes a SMP system will randomly panic at boot. This is due to caches
being out of sync when one core tries to signal the other. So when one
core calls another via IPI, flush the data caches.

Rather than keeping the pins in the actual driver and worrying about a

boards file. This lets people easily select the specific pins/ports for
the normal emulated UART as well as GPIOs for CTS/RTS.

Blackfin needs it own arch specific probe_kernel_read() and
probe_kernel_write().
This was moved out of the kgdb code and into the
arch/blackfin/maccess.c, because it is a generic kernel api.
The arch specific kgdb.c for blackfin was cleaned of all functions
which exist in the kgdb core that do the same thing after resolving
the probe_kernel_read() and probe_kernel_write(). This also
eliminated the need for most of the #include's.

The current code will load the stack size and protection markings, but
then only use the markings in the MMU code path. The NOMMU code path
always passes PROT_EXEC to the mmap() call. While this doesn't matter
to most people whilst the code is running, it will cause a pointless
icache flush when starting every FDPIC application. Typically this
icache flush will be of a region on the order of 128KB in size, or may
be the entire icache, depending on the facilities available on the CPU.
In the case where the arch default behaviour seems to be desired
(EXSTACK_DEFAULT), we probe VM_STACK_FLAGS for VM_EXEC to determine
whether we should be setting PROT_EXEC or not.
For arches that support an MPU (Memory Protection Unit - an MMU without
the virtual mapping capability), setting PROT_EXEC or not will make an
important difference.
It should be noted that this change also affects the executability of
the brk region, since ELF-FDPIC has that share with the stack. However,
this is probably irrelevant as NOMMU programs aren't likely to use the
brk region, preferring instead allocation via mmap().

The next commit will require the use of MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX in
.tmp_exports-asm.S. Currently it is mixed in with C structure
definitions in "asm/module.h". Move the definition of this arch option
into Kconfig, so it can be easily accessed by any code.
This also lets modpost.c use the same definition. Previously modpost
relied on a hardcoded list of architectures in mk_elfconfig.c.
A build test for blackfin, one of the two MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX archs,
showed the generated code was unchanged. vmlinux was identical save
for build ids, and an apparently randomized suffix on a single "__key"
symbol in the kallsyms data).

Normally there is no user-reserved memory after the DMA region which means
there is no user-reserved ICPLB coverage. So the DMA hole can be covered
by the large hole that is always added to cover up to the async bank. We
only need an explicit DMA whole when we also add an explicit mapping for
the user-reserved memory.

The error masks are only needed in the BF537 demux error code, so instead
of needing all the short peripheral defines in global space, push these
masks into the one file where they are actually needed. This fixes a
bunch of define collisions with common code (can/serial/etc...).

When testing PREEMPT_RT kernel on BF561-EZKit, the kernel blocks while
booting. When the kernel initializes the ethernet driver, it sleeps and
never wakes up.
The issue happens when the kernel waits for a timer for Core B to timeout
(the timers are per-cpu based: static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct tvec_base *,
tvec_bases) = &boot_tvec_bases).
However, the ksoftirqd thread for Core B (note, the ksoftirqd thread is
also per-cpu based) cannot work properly, and the timers for Core B never
times out.
When ksoftirqd() for the first time runs on core B, it is possible core A
is still initializing core B (see smp_init() -> cpu_up() -> __cpu_up()).
So the "cpu_is_offline()" check may return true and ksoftirqd moves to
"wait_to_die".
So delay the core b start up until the per-cpu timers have been set up
fully.

While fetching instructions at the boundary of L1 instruction SRAM, a false
External Memory Addressing Error might be triggered. We should ignore this
and continue on our way to avoid random crashes.
Because hardware errors are not exact in the Blackfin architecture, we need
to catch a few more common cases when the code flow changes and the signal
is finally delivered.
