cpu-probe.c has grown when supporting more and more CPUs and there
are use cases where probing for all the CPUs isn't useful like
running on a R3k system. But still the fpu handling is nearly
the same. For sharing put the fpu code into it's own file.

<title>MIPS: cpu-probe: ingenic: Fix broken BUG_ON</title>

<id>5f5ed0ebcf84c7479c93a28c5c0e1b0b6926883b</id>
<content type='text'>
The previous code was doing:
BUG_ON(!__builtin_constant_p(cpu_has_counter) || cpu_has_counter);

This only worked as the "cpu_has_counter" macro was overridden in
&lt;cpu-feature-overrides.h&gt;. The default "cpu_has_counter" macro is
non-constant, which triggered the BUG_ON() independently of the value
returned by the macro.

What we want to check here, is that *if* the macro was overridden to a
compile-time constant, then must be defined to zero, otherwise it's a
bug.

So the correct check is:
BUG_ON(__builtin_constant_p(cpu_has_counter) &amp;&amp; cpu_has_counter);

<title>MIPS: cpu-probe: Set Ingenic's writecombine to _CACHE_CACHABLE_WA</title>

<content type='text'>
Previously, in cpu_probe_ingenic(), c-&gt;writecombine was set to
_CACHE_UNCACHED_ACCELERATED, but this macro was defined differently when
CONFIG_MACH_INGENIC was set. This made it impossible to support multiple
CPUs.

Address this issue by setting c-&gt;writecombine to _CACHE_CACHABLE_WA
directly and removing the dependency on CONFIG_MACH_INGENIC.

<title>MIPS: handle Loongson-specific GSExc exception</title>

<id>bc6e8dc112133a60efbede8acde36dd5d1e748a1</id>
<content type='text'>
Newer Loongson cores (Loongson-3A R2 and newer) use the
implementation-dependent ExcCode 16 to signal Loongson-specific
exceptions. The extended cause is put in the non-standard CP0.Diag1
register which is CP0 Register 22 Select 1, called GSCause in Loongson
manuals. Inside is an exception code bitfield called GSExcCode, only
codes 0 to 6 inclusive are documented (so far, in the Loongson 3A3000
User Manual, Volume 2).

During experiments, it was found that some undocumented unprivileged
instructions can trigger the also-undocumented GSExcCode 8 on Loongson
3A4000. Processor state is not corrupted, but we cannot continue without
further knowledge, and Loongson is not providing that information as of
this writing. So we send SIGILL on seeing this exception code to thwart
easy local DoS attacks.

Other exception codes are made fatal, partly because of insufficient
knowledge, also partly because they are not as easily reproduced. None
of them are encountered in the wild with upstream kernels and userspace
so far.

Some older cores (Loongson-3A1000 and Loongson-3B1500) have ExcCode 16
too, but the semantic is equivalent to GSExcCode 0. Because the
respective manuals did not mention the CP0.Diag1 register or its read
behavior, these cores are not covered in this patch, as MFC0 from
non-existent CP0 registers is UNDEFINED according to the MIPS
architecture spec.

<title>MIPS: only register FTLBPar exception handler for supported models</title>

Previously ExcCode 16 is unconditionally treated as the FTLB parity
exception (FTLBPar), but in fact its semantic is implementation-
dependent. Looking at various manuals it seems the FTLBPar exception is
only present on some recent MIPS Technologies cores, so only register
the handler on these.

This patch enable KVM support for Loongson-3 by selecting HAVE_KVM, but
only enable KVM/VZ on Loongson-3A R4+ (because VZ of early processors
are incomplete). Besides, Loongson-3 support SMP guests, so we clear the
linked load bit of LLAddr in kvm_vz_vcpu_load() if the guest has more
than one VCPUs.
