jedec_ddr_data.c exports 3 symbols, and all of them are only
referenced from drivers/memory/{emif.c,of_memory.c}

drivers/memory/ is a better location than lib/.

I removed the Kconfig prompt "JEDEC DDR data" because it is only
select'ed by TI_EMIF, and there is no other user. There is no good
reason in making it a user-configurable CONFIG option.

Tegra30+ has some minor differences in registers / bits layout compared
to Tegra20. Let's squash Tegra20 driver into the common tegra-mc driver
in a preparation for the upcoming MC hot reset controls implementation,
avoiding code duplication.

Note that this currently doesn't report the value of MC_GART_ERROR_REQ
because it is located within the GART register area and cannot be safely
accessed from the MC driver (this happens to work only by accident). The
proper solution is to integrate the GART driver with the MC driver, much
like is done for the Tegra SMMU, but that is an invasive change and will
be part of a separate patch series.

<title>memory: ti-emif-sram: introduce relocatable suspend/resume handlers</title>
<updated>2017-12-03T03:27:17+00:00</updated>

<id>8428e5ad750d482bdf077e81a1e9357332b3278c</id>
<content type='text'>
Certain SoCs like Texas Instruments AM335x and AM437x require parts
of the EMIF PM code to run late in the suspend sequence from SRAM,
such as saving and restoring the EMIF context and placing the memory
into self-refresh.

One requirement for these SoCs to suspend and enter its lowest power
mode, called DeepSleep0, is that the PER power domain must be shut off.
Because the EMIF (DDR Controller) resides within this power domain, it
will lose context during a suspend operation, so we must save it so we
can restore once we resume. However, we cannot execute this code from
external memory, as it is not available at this point, so the code must
be executed late in the suspend path from SRAM.

This patch introduces a ti-emif-sram driver that includes several
functions written in ARM ASM that are relocatable so the PM SRAM
code can use them. It also allocates a region of writable SRAM to
be used by the code running in the executable region of SRAM to save
and restore the EMIF context. It can export a table containing the
absolute addresses of the available PM functions so that other SRAM
code can branch to them. This code is required for suspend/resume on
AM335x and AM437x to work.

In addition to this, to be able to share data structures between C and
the ti-emif-sram-pm assembly code, we can automatically generate all of
the C struct member offsets and sizes as macros by processing
emif-asm-offsets.c into assembly code and then extracting the relevant
data as is done for the generated platform asm-offsets.h files.

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
 "This branch contains platform-related driver updates for ARM and
  ARM64, these are the areas that bring the changes:

  New drivers:

   - driver support for Renesas R-Car V3M (R8A77970)

   - power management support for Amlogic GX

   - a new driver for the Tegra BPMP thermal sensor

   - a new bus driver for Technologic Systems NBUS

  Changes for subsystems that prefer to merge through arm-soc:

   - the usual updates for reset controller drivers from Philipp Zabel,
     with five added drivers for SoCs in the arc, meson, socfpa,
     uniphier and mediatek families

   - updates to the ARM SCPI and PSCI frameworks, from Sudeep Holla,
     Heiner Kallweit and Lorenzo Pieralisi

  Changes specific to some ARM-based SoC

   - the Freescale/NXP DPAA QBMan drivers from PowerPC can now work on
     ARM as well

   - several changes for power management on Broadcom SoCs

   - various improvements on Qualcomm, Broadcom, Amlogic, Atmel,
     Mediatek

   - minor Cleanups for Samsung, TI OMAP SoCs"

[ NOTE! This doesn't work without the previous ARM SoC device-tree pull,
  because the R8A77970 driver is missing a header file that came from
  that pull.

  The fact that this got merged afterwards only fixes it at this point,
  and bisection of that driver will fail if/when you walk into the
  history of that driver.           - Linus ]

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

This driver allows access to DRAM properties, such as the refresh rate,
via the Broadcom STB DDR PHY Front End (DPFE). The refresh rate can be
used as indirect indicator of the DRAM temperature.

The driver also allows setting of the sampling interval.
