VMS is always setup because VM mode was before
exception/syscall/interrupt. Kernel continues in kernel mode
that's why we have to clear UMS bit if kernel comes from
user space.

PT_MODE stores information if kernel comes from user
or kernel space. If come from user space, PT_MODE
contains 0. If come from kernel store, PT_MODE contains
non zero value. We don't need to save value 1. I am using
r1 register which contains non zero value.
This change save one additional instruction.

Keep together all arguments for send_sig function.
Move returning address to delay slot which is executed.
Remove additional send_sig loading. I am using IMM part of
rtbd instruction with r0.
old solution:
addik r11, r0, send_sig
rtbd r11, 0
nop
new solution:
rtbd r0, send_sig
nop
There is one instruction saving.

It is necessary to setup BIP and EE and clear EIP
only for unaligned exception handler. The rest of
hw exception handlers don't require it.
HW exception occured and we are not in virtual mode.
That's why we can do operations protected by EIP.
Interrupt, next hw exception or syscall can't occur.
EIP is cleared by rted.
This change speedup page_fault hw exception handler
which is critical path.
There is also necessary to save R11 content before
flag setup for unaligned exception.

There is a way howto remove Kernel Mode variable. It is easier
to parse UMS bit in MSR to find out if I come from kernel or user

PER_CPU variable depends on memory state.

Implement intelligent backtracing by searching for stack frame creation,
and emitting only return addresses. Use print_hex_dump() to display the
entire binary kernel stack.
Limitation: MMU kernels are not currently able to trace beyond a system trap
(interrupt, syscall, etc.). It is the intent of this patch to provide
infrastructure that can be extended to add this capability later.
Changes from V1:
* Removed checks in find_frame_creation() that prevented location of the frame
creation instruction in heavily optimized code
* Various formatting/commenting/file location tweaks per review comments
* Dropped Kconfig option to enable STACKTRACE as something logically separate

sys_clone syscall ignored args which this patch mapped to args
which are passing from glibc.
Here is the origin problem description.
"I ran the static libgcc tests (very few of them are there, they are
mostly dynamically linked) and some of them fail with an assertion in
fork() system call (tid != pid), I looked at the microblaze/entry.S
file and it looks suspicious (ignores arguments 3-5)"
Arg mapping should be:
glibc ARCH_FORK(...) -> do_fork(...)
r5 -> r5 (clone_flags)
r6 -> r6 (stack_start, use parent->stack if NULL)
pt_regs -> r7 (pt_regs)
r7 -> r8 (stack_size)
r8 -> r9 (parent_tidptr)
r9 -> r10 (child_tidptr)

copy_to_user_page macro is used in mm/memory.c:access_process_vm
function. This function is called from ptrace code (POKETEXT, POKEDATA)
which write data to memory. Microblaze handle physical address for
caches that's why there is virt_to_phys conversion.
There is potential one location which can caused the problem on WB system.
The important is take a look at write PTRACEs requests
(POKE/TEXT, DATA, USR).
Note:
Majority of Microblaze PTRACE code is moved to generic location
in newer kernel version that's why this solution should work on
the newest kernel version too.
linux/io.h is in cacheflush because of mm/nommu.c
Tested on a WB system - hello world debugging.

This list used was by only two platforms with all other platforms defining an
own list of valid bus id's to pass to of_platform_bus_probe. This patch:
i) copies the default list to the two platforms that depended on it (powerpc)
ii) remove the usage of of_default_bus_ids in of_platform_bus_probe
iii) removes the definition of the list from all architectures that defined it
Passing a NULL 'matches' parameter to of_platform_bus_probe is still valid; the
function returns no error in that case as the NULL value is equivalent to an
empty list.

Both of_bus_type and of_platform_bus_type are just #define aliases
for the platform bus. This patch removes all references to them and
switches to the of_register_platform_driver()/of_unregister_platform_driver()
API for registering.
Subsequent patches will convert each user of of_register_platform_driver()
into plain platform_drivers without the of_platform_driver shim. At which
point the of_register_platform_driver()/of_unregister_platform_driver()
functions can be removed.

of_platform_bus was being used in the same manner as the platform_bus.
The only difference being that of_platform_bus devices are generated
from data in the device tree, and platform_bus devices are usually
statically allocated in platform code. Having them separate causes
the problem of device drivers having to be registered twice if it
was possible for the same device to appear on either bus.
This patch removes of_platform_bus_type and registers all of_platform
bus devices and drivers on the platform bus instead. A previous patch
made the of_device structure an alias for the platform_device structure,
and a shim is used to adapt of_platform_drivers to the platform bus.
After all of of_platform_bus drivers are converted to be normal platform
drivers, the shim code can be removed.

Currently the kernel uses the struct device_node.data pointer to resolve
a struct gpio_chip pointer from a device tree node. However, the .data
member doesn't provide any type checking and there aren't any rules
enforced on what it should be used for. There's no guarantee that the
data stored in it actually points to an gpio_chip pointer.
Instead of relying on the .data pointer, this patch modifies the code
to add a lookup function which scans through the registered gpio_chips
and returns the gpio_chip that has a pointer to the specified
device_node.

The OF gpio infrastructure is great for describing GPIO connections within
the device tree. However, using a GPIO binding still requires changes to
the gpio controller just to add an of_gpio structure. In most cases, the
gpio controller doesn't actually need any special support and the simple
OF gpio mapping function is more than sufficient. Additional, the current
scheme of using of_gpio_chip requires a convoluted scheme to maintain
1:1 mappings between of_gpio_chip and gpio_chip instances.
If the struct of_gpio_chip data members were moved into struct gpio_chip,
then it would simplify the processing of OF gpio bindings, and it would
make it trivial to use device tree OF connections on existing gpiolib
controller drivers.
This patch eliminates the of_gpio_chip structure and moves the relevant
fields into struct gpio_chip (conditional on CONFIG_OF_GPIO). This move
simplifies the existing code and prepares for adding automatic device tree
support to existing drivers.

Merge common code between PowerPC and microblaze. This patch merges
the code that scans the tree and registers devices. The functions
merged are of_platform_bus_probe(), of_platform_bus_create(), and
of_platform_device_create().
This patch also move the of_default_bus_ids[] table out of a Microblaze
header file and makes it non-static. The device ids table isn't merged
because powerpc and microblaze use different default data.

Microblaze and PowerPC share a large chunk of code for translating
OF device tree data into usable addresses. Differences between the two
consist of cosmetic differences, and the addition of dma-ranges support
code to powerpc but not microblaze. This patch moves the powerpc
version into common code and applies many of the cosmetic (non-functional)
changes from the microblaze version.
