031bd879f7 ARM: mm: implement LoUIS API for cache maintenance ops
ARM v7 architecture introduced the concept of cache levels and related
control registers. New processors like A7 and A15 embed an L2 unified cache
controller that becomes part of the cache level hierarchy. Some operations in
the kernel like cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable do not require a flush of the
entire cache hierarchy to DRAM but just the cache levels belonging to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS), which in most of ARM v7 systems
correspond to L1.

The current cache flushing API used in cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable,
flush_cache_all(), ends up flushing the whole cache hierarchy since for
v7 it cleans and invalidates all cache levels up to Level of Coherency
(LoC) which cripples system performance when used in hot paths like hotplug
and cpuidle.

Therefore a new kernel cache maintenance API must be added to cope with
latest ARM system requirements.

This patch adds flush_cache_louis() to the ARM kernel cache maintenance API.

This function cleans and invalidates all data cache levels up to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS) and invalidates the instruction
cache for processors that support it (> v7).

This patch also creates an alias of the cache LoUIS function to flush_kern_all
for all processor versions prior to v7, so that the current cache flushing
behaviour is unchanged for those processors.

v7 cache maintenance code implements a cache LoUIS function that cleans and
invalidates the D-cache up to LoUIS and invalidates the I-cache, according
to the new API.

c8c90860cd ARM: 6466/1: implement flush_icache_all for the rest of the CPUs
Commit 81d11955bf ("ARM: 6405/1: Handle __flush_icache_all for
CONFIG_SMP_ON_UP") added a new function to struct cpu_cache_fns:
flush_icache_all(). It also implemented this for v6 and v7 but not
for v5 and backwards. Without the function pointer in place, we
will be calling wrong cache functions.

For example with ep93xx we get following:

    Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ee070f38
    pgd = c0004000

__dma_alloc() calls (inlined) __dma_alloc_buffer() which ends up
calling dmac_flush_range(). Now since the entries in the
arm920_cache_fns are shifted by one, we jump into address 0xee070f38
which is actually next instruction after the arm920_cache_fns
structure.

So implement flush_icache_all() for the rest of the supported CPUs
using a generic 'invalidate I cache' instruction.
