This allows us to get rid of some hacky code for SMP.  Get rid of
some cycle counter hackery that's now handled by generic code via
clocksource + clock_event_device objects.

Discontinue use of GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE; rely on the RTC subsystem.

The marvel platform requires that the rtc only be touched from the
boot cpu.  This had been partially implemented with hooks for
get/set_rtc_time, but read/update_persistent_clock were not handled.
Move the hooks from the machine_vec to a special rtc_class_ops struct.

We had read_persistent_clock managing the epoch against which the
rtc hw is based, but this didn't apply to get_rtc_time or set_rtc_time.
This resulted in incorrect values when hwclock(8) gets involved.

Allow the epoch to be set from the kernel command-line, overriding
the autodetection, which is doomed to fail in 2020.  Further, by
implementing the rtc ioctl function, we can expose this epoch to
userland.

Elide the alarm functions that RTC_DRV_CMOS implements.  This was
highly questionable on Alpha, since the interrupt is used by the
system timer.

These platforms got broken after u64 =&gt; 'long long' conversion.

Apparently that change was compile-tested with 'make allmodconfig', but it
doesn't include systems that depend on !ALPHA_LEGACY_START_ADDRESS.

Convert alpha architecture to use u64 as unsigned long long.  This is
being done so that (a) all arches use u64 as unsigned long long and (b)
printk of a u64 as %ll[ux] will not generate format warnings by gcc.

The only gcc cross-compiler that I have is 4.0.2, which generates errors
about miscompiling __weak references, so I have commented out that line in
compiler-gcc4.h so that most of these compile, but more builds and real
machine testing would be Real Good.

<id>5f7dc5d75076fd1c1fc6bc09f2467509d20db24a</id>

Unlike other alphas, marvel doesn't have real PC-style CMOS clock hardware
- RTC accesses are emulated via PAL calls.  Unfortunately, for unknown
reason these calls work only on CPU #0.  So current implementation for
arbitrary CPU makes CMOS_READ/WRITE to be executed on CPU #0 via IPI.
However, for obvious reason this doesn't work with standard
get/set_rtc_time() functions, where a bunch of CMOS accesses is done with
disabled interrupts.

Solved by making the IPI calls for entire get/set_rtc_time() functions,
not for individual CMOS accesses.  Which is also a lot more effective
performance-wise.

The patch is largely based on the code from Jay Estabrook.
My changes:
- tweak asm-generic/rtc.h by adding a couple of #defines to
  avoid a massive code duplication in arch/alpha/include/asm/rtc.h;
- sys_marvel.c: fix get/set_rtc_time() return values (Jay's FIXMEs).

NOTE: this fixes *only* LIB_RTC drivers.  Legacy (CONFIG_RTC) driver
wont't work on marvel.  Actually I think that we should just disable
CONFIG_RTC on alpha (maybe in 2.6.30?), like most other arches - AFAIK,
all modern distributions use LIB_RTC anyway.

<title>ALPHA: support graphics on non-zero PCI domains</title>

<id>025a22151c41890e5d30a1d4fb84c547b84d7671</id>
<content type='text'>
This code replaces earlier and incomplete handling of graphics on non-zero PCI
domains (aka hoses or peer PCI buses).

An option (CONFIG_VGA_HOSE) is set TRUE if configuring a GENERIC kernel, or a
kernel for MARVEL, TITAN, or TSUNAMI machines, as these are the machines whose
SRM consoles are capable of configuring and handling graphics options on
non-zero hoses.  All other machines have the option set FALSE.

A routine, "find_console_vga_hose()", is used to find the graphics device
which the machine's firmware believes is the console device, and it sets a
global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device.  This is
called in "init_arch" on TITAN and TSUNAMI machines; MARVEL machines use a
custom version of this routine because of extra complexity.

A routine, "locate_and_init_vga()", is used to find the graphics device and
set a global (pci_vga_hose) for later use in managing access to the device, in
the case where "find_console_vga_hose" has failed.

Various adjustments are made to the ioremap and ioportmap routines for
detecting and translating "legacy" VGA register and memory references to the
real PCI domain.
