Pull Tile arch updates from Chris Metcalf:
 "These changes bring in a bunch of new functionality that has been
  maintained internally at Tilera over the last year, plus other stray
  bits of work that I've taken into the tile tree from other folks.

  The changes include some PCI root complex work, interrupt-driven
  console support, support for performing fast-path unaligned data
  fixups by kernel-based JIT code generation, CONFIG_PREEMPT support,
  vDSO support for gettimeofday(), a serial driver for the tilegx
  on-chip UART, KGDB support, more optimized string routines, support
  for ftrace and kprobes, improved ASLR, and many bug fixes.

  We also remove support for the old TILE64 chip, which is no longer
  buildable"

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile: (85 commits)
  tile: refresh tile defconfig files
  tile: rework &lt;asm/cmpxchg.h&gt;
  tile PCI RC: make default consistent DMA mask 32-bit
  tile: add null check for kzalloc in tile/kernel/setup.c
  tile: make __write_once a synonym for __read_mostly
  tile: remove support for TILE64
  tile: use asm-generic/bitops/builtin-*.h
  tile: eliminate no-op "noatomichash" boot argument
  tile: use standard tile_bundle_bits type in traps.c
  tile: simplify code referencing hypervisor API addresses
  tile: change &lt;asm/system.h&gt; to &lt;asm/switch_to.h&gt; in comments
  tile: mark pcibios_init() as __init
  tile: check for correct compiler earlier in asm-offsets.c
  tile: use standard 'generic-y' model for &lt;asm/hw_irq.h&gt;
  tile: use asm-generic version of &lt;asm/local64.h&gt;
  tile PCI RC: add comment about "PCI hole" problem

This chip is no longer being actively developed for (it was superceded
by the TILEPro64 in 2008), and in any case the existing compiler and
toolchain in the community do not support it.  It's unlikely that the
kernel works with TILE64 at this point as the configuration has not been
tested in years.  The support is also awkward as it requires maintaining
a significant number of ifdefs.  So, just remove it altogether.

The "available_irqs" value needs to actually reflect the IRQs
available, not just start as an all-ones mask, since we only
have 32 IRQs available even on a 64-bit platform.

This change adds support for CONFIG_PREEMPT (full kernel preemption).
In addition to the core support, this change includes a number
of places where we fix up uses of smp_processor_id() and per-cpu
variables.  I also eliminate the PAGE_HOME_HERE and PAGE_HOME_UNKNOWN
values for page homing, as it turns out they weren't being used.

<title>tile: delete __cpuinit usage from all tile files</title>

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

This removes all the arch/tile uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files.  Currently tile does not have any __CPUINIT used in
assembly files.

We provided very similar routines internally, but now we can hook
into the generic framework by supplying our routines as function
pointers in the irq_chip structure instead.
