MIPS: Delete cpuinit/CPUINIT usage from MIPS code

2013-07-14T23:36:51+00:00

commit 3747069b25e419f6b51395f48127e9812abc3596 upstream.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

Here, we remove all the MIPS __cpuinit from C code and __CPUINIT
from asm files.  MIPS is interesting in this respect, because there
are also uasm users hiding behind their own renamed versions of the
__cpuinit macros.

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this

MIPS: uasm: Add option to export uasm API.

2010-08-05T12:26:21+00:00

A 'select EXPORT_UASM' in Kconfig will cause the uasm to be exported
for use in modules.  When it is exported, all the uasm data and code
cease to be __init and __initdata.

Also daddiu_bug cannot be __cpuinitdata if uasm is exported.  The
cleanest thing is to just make it normal data.

[MIPS] Add empty argument parenthesis to GCC_IMM_ASM

2008-05-12T15:46:52+00:00

This is to clarify that GCC_IMM_ASM does not take an argument as the
context of the macro's invocation seems to imply.

As suggested by Maciej W. Rozycki (macro@linux-mips.org).
