ee0263cc2e Blackfin: BF518F-EZBRD: handle required portmuxing of async pins
The two high address lines on the BF51x are not dedicated which means we
need to handle them like any other peripheral pin if we want to access the
upper 2MB of parallel flash.

fecbd7366b Blackfin: fix early L1 relocation crash
Our early L1 relocate code may implicitly call code which lives in L1
memory.  This is due to the dma_memcpy() rewrite that made the DMA code
lockless and safe to be used by multiple processes.  If we start the
early DMA memcpy to relocate things into L1 instruction but then our
DMA memcpy code calls a function that lives in L1, things fall apart.
As such, create a small dedicated DMA memcpy routine that we can assume
sanity at boot time.

c3dc5bec05 flat: fix data sections alignment
The flat loader uses an architecture's flat_stack_align() to align the
stack but assumes word-alignment is enough for the data sections.

However, on the Xtensa S6000 we have registers up to 128bit width
which can be used from userspace and therefor need userspace stack and
data-section alignment of at least this size.

This patch drops flat_stack_align() and uses the same alignment that
is required for slab caches, ARCH_SLAB_MINALIGN, or wordsize if it's
not defined by the architecture.

It also fixes m32r which was obviously kaput, aligning an
uninitialized stack entry instead of the stack pointer.

93b61bddc1 Blackfin SPI Driver: Make mmc_spi driver work on Blackfin
1. Rewrite of the non-dma data transfer functions to use only ONE mode
   of TIMOD (TIMOD=0x1).  With TIMOD=0, it was not possible to set the TX
   bit pattern.  So the TDBR = 0xFFFF inside the read calls won't work.

2. Clear SPI_RDBR before reading and before duplex transfer.
   Otherwise the garbage data in RDBR will get read.  Since mmc_spi uses a
   lot of duplex transfers, this is the main cause of mmc_spi failure.

3. Poll RXS for transfer completion.  Polling SPIF or TXS cannot
   guarantee transfer completion.  This may interrupt a transfer before it
   is finished.  Also this may leave garbage data in buffer and affect
   next transfer.

struct bfin5xx_spi_chip

There are various SPI devices that require SPI MODE_0, and need to have
the Chip Selects asserted during the entire transfer.  Consider using
SPI_MODE_3 (SPI_CPHA | SPI_CPOL) if your device allows it.

99b7623380 proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.

We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.

But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.

->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.

rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.

Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.

So, let's nuke it.

Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

d6879c585b Blackfin arch: be less noisy when gets a gpio conflict after kernel has booted
Once the kernel has booted - be less noisy when someone does a modprobe
(and gets a gpio conflict).
