2006-03-10[ARM] 3356/1: Workaround for the ARM1136 I-cache invalidation problemCatalin Marinas
Patch from Catalin Marinas ARM1136 erratum 371025 (category 2) specifies that, under rare conditions, an invalidate I-cache by MVA (line or range) operation can fail to invalidate a cache line. The recommended workaround is to either invalidate the entire I-cache or invalidate the range by set/way rather than MVA. Note that for a 16K cache size, invalidating a 4K page by set/way is equivalent to invalidating the entire I-cache.

2006-02-01[ARM] 3294/1: don't invalidate individual BTB entries on ARMv6Nicolas Pitre
Patch from Nicolas Pitre Doing so adds a much larger cost to the loop than the cost implied by simply invalidating the whole BTB at once. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
2005-09-30[ARM] 2940/1: Fix BTB entry flush in arch/arm/mm/cache-v6.SGen FUKATSU
Patch from Gen FUKATSU Invalidate BTB entry instruction flushes two instruction at a time. Therefore this instruction should be done four times after invalidate instruction cache line.

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!
