time: RCU permitted to stop idle entry via softirq

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paul.mckenney@xxxxxxxxxx>

The can_stop_idle_tick() function complains if a softirq vector is
raised too late in the idle-entry process, presumably in order to
prevent dangling softirq invocations from being delayed across the
full idle period, which might be indefinitely long -- and if softirq
was asserted any later than the call to this function, such a delay
might well happen.

However, RCU needs to be able to use softirq to stop idle entry in
order to be able to drain RCU callbacks from the current CPU, which in
turn enables faster entry into dyntick-idle mode, which in turn reduces
power consumption. Because RCU takes this action at a well-defined
point in the idle-entry path, it is safe for RCU to take this approach.

This commit therefore silences the error message that is sometimes
produced when the going-idle CPU suddenly finds that it has an RCU_SOFTIRQ
to process. The error message will continue to be issued for other
softirq vectors.

ARM: smp: flush L1 cache in cpu_die()

Flush the L1 cache for the CPU which is going down in cpu_die() so
that we don't end up with all platforms doing this.  This ensures
that any cache lines we own are pushed out before the cache becomes
inaccessible.

We may end up subsequently creating some dirty cache lines - for
example, with the complete() call, but this update must become
visible to other CPUs before __cpu_die() can proceed.  Subsequent
accesses from the platforms cpu_die() function should _not_ matter.

Also place a mb() after the complete() call to ensure that this is
visible to other CPUs.

ARM: cpu hotplug: remove majority of cache flushing from platforms

Remove the majority of cache flushing calls from the individual platform
files.  This is now handled by the core code.

ARM: 7542/1: mm: fix cache LoUIS API for xscale and feroceon

Some architectures like xscale and feroceon have cache API variants that
map cache flushing functions as aliases to the base architecture.
This patch adds the required aliases to complete the implementation of
cache flushing LoUIS API.

ARM: 7573/1: idmap: use flush_cache_louis() and flush TLBs only when necessary

Flushing the cache is needed for the hardware to see the idmap table
and therefore can be done at init time.  On ARMv7 it is not necessary to
flush L2 so flush_cache_louis() is used here instead.

There is no point flushing the cache in setup_mm_for_reboot() as the
caller should, and already is, taking care of this.  If switching the
memory map requires a cache flush, then cpu_switch_mm() already includes
that operation.

What is not done by cpu_switch_mm() on ASID capable CPUs is TLB flushing
as the whole point of the ASID is to tag the TLBs and avoid flushing them
on a context switch.  Since we don't have a clean ASID for the identity
mapping, we need to flush the TLB explicitly in that case.  Otherwise
this is already performed by cpu_switch_mm().

ARM: 7606/1: cache: flush to LoUU instead of LoUIS on uniprocessor CPUs

flush_cache_louis flushes the D-side caches to the point of unification
inner-shareable. On uniprocessor CPUs, this is defined as zero and
therefore no flushing will take place. Rather than invent a new interface
for UP systems, instead use our SMP_ON_UP patching code to read the
LoUU from the CLIDR instead.

ARM: 7752/1: errata: LoUIS bit field in CLIDR register is incorrect

On Cortex-A9 before version r1p0, the LoUIS bit field of the CLIDR
register returns zero when it should return one. This leads to cache
maintenance operations which rely on this value to not function as
intended, causing data corruption.

The workaround for this errata is to detect affected CPUs and correct
the LoUIS value read.
