commit 45c3b08a117e2232fc8d7b9e849ead36386f4f96 upstream.

For resources shared by all cores such as SLC and IOC, only the master
core needs to do any setups / enabling / disabling etc.

Before we plug in highmem support, some of code needs to be ready for it
 - copy_user_highpage() needs to be using the kmap_atomic API
 - mk_pte() can't assume page_address()
 - do_page_fault() can't assume VMALLOC_END is end of kernel vaddr space

<title>ARCv2: Support IO Coherency and permutations involving L1 and L2 caches</title>

<id>f2b0b25a37a6db12580dcdfdf00f020e5e0e3a43</id>
<content type='text'>
In case of ARCv2 CPU there're could be following configurations
that affect cache handling for data exchanged with peripherals
via DMA:
 [1] Only L1 cache exists
 [2] Both L1 and L2 exist, but no IO coherency unit
 [3] L1, L2 caches and IO coherency unit exist

Current implementation takes care of [1] and [2].
Moreover support of [2] is implemented with run-time check
for SLC existence which is not super optimal.

This patch introduces support of [3] and rework of DMA ops
usage. Instead of doing run-time check every time a particular
DMA op is executed we'll have 3 different implementations of
DMA ops and select appropriate one during init.

As for IOC support for it we need:
 [a] Implement empty DMA ops because IOC takes care of cache
     coherency with DMAed data
 [b] Route dma_alloc_coherent() via dma_alloc_noncoherent()
     This is required to make IOC work in first place and also
     serves as optimization as LD/ST to coherent buffers can be
     srviced from caches w/o going all the way to memory

[vgupta:
  -Added some comments about IOC gains
  -Marked dma ops as static,
  -Massaged changelog a bit]

<title>ARCv2: guard SLC DMA ops with spinlock</title>

SLC maintenance ops need to be serialized by software as there is no
inherent buffering / quequing of aux commands. It can silently ignore a
new aux operation if previous one is still ongoing (SLC_CTRL_BUSY)

So gaurd the SLC op using a spin lock

The spin lock doesn't seem to be contended even in heavy workloads such
as iperf. On FPGA @ 75 MHz.
