Commit 6793f55cbc84 ("MIPS: sibyte: Amend dependencies for
SIBYTE_BUS_WATCHER") changed the dependencies for
SIBYTE_BUS_WATCHER to make it visible only if SIBYTE_BCM112X
or SIBYTE_SB1250 are enabled.

In the code in arch/mips/sibyte/common/bus_watcher, however,
a #if defined() check suggests that this functionality should
also be available for SIBYTE_BCM1x55 and SIBYTE_BCM1x80.

Make it selectable by extending the dependencies of
SIBYTE_BUS_WATCHER in arch/mips/sibyte/Kconfig.

<title>MIPS: SMP: Don't increment irq_count multiple times for call function IPIs</title>
<updated>2015-08-03T07:25:12+00:00</updated>

<id>4ace6139bf23ab4f152ba4207fc10b76cc01d2a5</id>
<content type='text'>
The majority of SMP platforms handle their IPIs through do_IRQ()
which calls irq_{enter/exit}(). When a call function IPI is received,
smp_call_function_interrupt() is called which also calls
irq_{enter,exit}(), meaning irq_count is raised twice.

When tick broadcasting is used (which is implemented via a call
function IPI), this incorrectly causes all CPU idle time on the core
receiving broadcast ticks to be accounted as time spent servicing
IRQs, as account_process_tick() will account as such if irq_count is
greater than 1. This results in 100% CPU usage being reported on a
core which receives its ticks via broadcast.

This patch removes the SMP smp_call_function_interrupt() wrapper which
calls irq_{enter,exit}(). Platforms which handle their IPIs through
do_IRQ() now call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() directly to
avoid incrementing irq_count a second time. Platforms which don't
(loongson, sgi-ip27, sibyte) call generic_smp_call_function_interrupt()
wrapped in irq_{enter,exit}().

<title>MIPS: SB1: Remove support for Pass 1 parts.</title>

Pass 1 parts had a number of significant erratas and were only available
in small numbers and under NDA.  Full support also required the use of a
special toolchain that kept branches properly aligned.  These workarounds
were never upstreamed and the only toolchain known to have them is
Montavista's GCC 3.0-based toolchain which completly obsoleted if not
useless these days.

So now that automated testing has tripped over the user of the
-msb1-pass1-workarounds option, rather than fixing it remove support for
pass 1 parts.

Probably nobody will notice.  I seem to own the last know pass 1 board
and I haven't noticed another one in the wild in the past decade, at
least.

While at it, rename it because in drivers/irqchip no longer every CPU is
a MIPS.

Nothing was using the method and there isn't any need for this hook.  This
leaves smp_cpus_done() empty for the moment.
