Create separate functions to deal with instruction and data cache flushing.
This way we can optimize them for the vairous cache types and arrangements
used across the ColdFire family.

For example the unified caches in the version 3 cores means we don't
need to flush the instruction cache. For the version 2 cores that do
not do data cacheing (or where we choose instruction cache only) we
don't need to do any data flushing.

Currently the code to push cache lines is only available to version 4
cores. Version 3 cores may also need to use this if we support copy-
back caches on them. Move this code to make it more generic, and
useful for all version ColdFire cores.

With this in place we can now have a single cache_flush_all() code
path that does all the right things on all version cores.

The cache control code for the ColdFire CPU's is a big ugly mess
of "#ifdef"ery liberally coated with bit constants. Clean it up.

The cache controllers in the various ColdFire parts are actually quite
similar. Just differing in some bit flags and options supported. Using
the header defines now in place it is pretty easy to factor out the
small differences and use common setup and flush/invalidate code.

I have preserved the cache setups as they where in the old code
(except where obviously wrong - like in the case of the 5249). Following
from this it should be easy now to extend the possible setups used on
the CACHE controllers that support split cacheing or copy-back or
write through options.

Move the inclusion of the version 4 cache controller registers so that
it is with all the other register bit flag definitions. This makes it
consistent with the other version core inclusion points, and means we
don't need "#ifdef"ery in odd-ball places for these definitions.

The more modern ColdFire parts (even if based on older version cores)
have separate user and supervisor stack pointers (a7 register).
Modify the ColdFire CPU setup and exception code to enable and use
this on parts that have it.

The ColdFire 547x family of processors is very similar to the ColdFire
548x series. Almost all of the support for them is the same. Make the
code supporting the 548x more gneric, so it will be capable of
supporting both families.

For the most part this is a renaming excerise to make the support
code more obviously apply to both families.

Now that we have meaningfull symbolic constants for bit definitions
of the cache registers of m5407 and m548x chips, use them to
improve readability, portability and efficiency of the cache operations.

This also fixes __flush_cache_all for m548x chips : implicit
DCACHE_SIZE was exact for m5407, but wrong for m548x.

Add a very basic mmu-less support for coldfire m548x family.  This is perhaps
also valid for m547x family.  The port comprises the serial, tick timer and
reboot support.  The gpio part compiles but is empty.  This gives a functional
albeit limited linux for the m548x coldfire family.  This has been tested
on a Freescale M548xEVB Lite board with a M5484 processor and the default
dbug monitor.

<title>block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages</title>

Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.

The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.

See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.
