Add DMA support for Microblaze. There are some part of this new feature:
1. Basic DMA support
2. Enable DMA debug option
3. Setup notifier
Ad 1. dma-mapping come from powerpc and x86 version and it is based on
generic dma-mapping-common.h
Ad 2. DMA support debug features which is used in generic file.
For more information please look at Documentation/DMA-API.txt
Ad 3. notifier is very important to setup dma_ops. Without this part
for example ll_temac driver failed because there are no setup dma operations.

At present, the fdt code sets the kernel-wide initrd_start and
initrd_end variables when parsing /chosen. On ARM, we only set these
once the bootmem has been reserved.
This change adds an arch hook to setup the initrd from the device
tree:
void early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch(unsigned long start,
unsigned long end);
The arch-specific code can then setup the initrd however it likes.

In struct device_node, the phandle is named 'linux_phandle' for PowerPC
and MicroBlaze, and 'node' for SPARC. There is no good reason for the
difference, it is just an artifact of the code diverging over a couple
of years. This patch renames both to simply .phandle.
Note: the .node also existed in PowerPC/MicroBlaze, but the only user
seems to be arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/pfunc_core.c. It doesn't
look like the assignment between .linux_phandle and .node is
significantly different enough to warrant the separate code paths
unless ibm,phandle properties actually appear in Apple device trees.
I think it is safe to eliminate the old .node property and use
phandle everywhere.

With dynamic function tracer, by default, _mcount is defined as an
"empty" function, it returns directly without any more action. When
enabling it in user-space, it will jump to a real tracing
function(ftrace_caller), and do the real job for us.
Differ from the static function tracer, dynamic function tracer provides
two functions ftrace_make_call()/ftrace_make_nop() to enable/disable the
tracing of some indicated kernel functions(set_ftrace_filter).
In the kernel version, there is only one "_mcount" string for every
kernel function, so, we just need to match this one in mcount_regex of
scripts/recordmcount.pl.
For more information please look at code and Documentation/trace folder.
Steven ACK that scripts/recordmcount.pl part.

If -pg of gcc is enabled with CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER=y. a calling to

possibility to trace the kernel functions in _mcount.
This patch add the specific _mcount support for static function
tracing. by default, ftrace_trace_function is initialized as
ftrace_stub(an empty function), so, the default _mcount will introduce
very little overhead. after enabling ftrace in user-space, it will jump
to a real tracing function and do static function tracing for us.

Microblaze needs to do lock_init very soon because MMU init calls lock functions.
Here is the explanation from Peter Zijlstra why we have to enable
__ARCH_WANTS_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTSW.
"So we schedule while holding rq->lock (for obvious reasons), but since
lockdep tracks held locks per tasks, we need to transfer the held state
from the prev to the next task. We do this by explicity calling
spin_release(&rq->lock) in context_switch() right before switch_to(),
and calling spin_acquire(&rq->lock) in
finish_task_switch()->finish_lock_switch().
Now, for some reason lockdep thinks that interrupts got enabled over the
context switch (git grep __ARCH_WANTS_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTSW arch/microblaze
doesn't seem to turn up anything).
Clearly trying to acquire the rq->lock with interrupts enabled is a bad
idea and lockdep warns you about this."

Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and
net stack entry/exit operations.
Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to
optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation.
This takes into account comments made by:
. Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram,
sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest.
. Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that
works in the same fashion as the ppoll one.
If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this
will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB
one) it has received so far.
. Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen
datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return
the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it
in the next call.
This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg,
where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at
every underlying recvmsg call.

Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!
In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.
Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.
All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)
The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.
Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.
User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.
Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.
( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

Fix trivial conflict as by Tejun Heo in kernel/sched.c
This code path doesn't test any returned pointers for NULL, leading to a bad
kernel page fault if there's no timer/intc found.
Slightly better is to BUG(), but even better still would be a printk beforehand.

Conflicts in core and arch percpu codes are mostly from commit
ed78e1e078dd44249f88b1dd8c76dafb39567161 which substituted many
num_possible_cpus() with nr_cpu_ids. As for-next branch has moved all
the first chunk allocators into mm/percpu.c, the changes are moved
from arch code to mm/percpu.c.

Reviewed the Makefile on request by Michal and this is the resulting changes.
o Use ':=' for assignmnet so we do not re-evaluate for each use
o Use $(shell echo xxx) to remove ""
o Replaced CFLAGS_KERNEL with KBUILD_CFLAGS
The settings are equally relevant for modules and the linked kernel
o Dropped LDFLAGS_BLOB - it is no longer used
o Refactored assignmnets to libs-y and core-y
o Use MMU for the MMU specific extension. "MMUEXT" was hurting my eyes
and I did not wanted it spread to m68k
