v4 cover ARM: PJ4B: fix for 3.10-rc

Hello,

This path set allows to fix one errata for PJ4B CPUs.

Without this the Armada 370 based board can't boot anymore since 3.10-rc1. So this one really need to be applied on 3.10-rc.

As they were pending question for the second one, I preferred to keep it apart awaiting the answers from the Marvell engineer.

Both of the patches of this series are needed to fix the issue. Indeed if the CPU is not recognized as a PJ4B then the fix is not applied.

Thanks,

Changelog:
V1 -> V2;
- Fixed various coding style and typo issues
- Replaced the "mcr p15, 0, r0, c7, c10, 4" by "dsb"

V2 -> v3:
- As suggested by Russell, the first errata is now applied dynamically according to the processor type

v3->4
- Moved the glob_equ maco into proc-macro.S
- Split the patch in 2 parts, one for fixing the ID and mask of the PJ4B and the second for fixing the errata itself

PATCH v4 1/2 ARM: PJ4B: Fix the CPU ID and the mask associated to the PJ4B

This commit fixes the ID and mask for the PJ4B which was too restrictive and didn't match the CPU of the Armada 370 SoC.

PATCH v4 2/2 ARM PJ4B: Add support for errata 4742

In reply to Gregory CLEMENT

This commit fixes the regression on Armada 370 (the kernal hang during boot) introduced by the commit: "ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE and use ALT_SMP instead".

When coming out of either a Wait for Interrupt (WFI) or a Wait for Event (WFE) IDLE states, a specific timing sensitivity exists between the retiring WFI/WFE instructions and the newly issued subsequent instructions. This sensitivity can result in a CPU hang scenario. The workaround is to insert either a Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB) or Data Memory Barrier (DMB) command immediately after the WFI/WFE instruction.

This commit was based on the work of Lior Amsalem, but heavily modified to apply the errata fix dynamically according to the processor type thanks to the suggestions of Russell King and Nicolas Pitre.

Dropped-by: Me. This causes build regression on anything using ARMv7 CPUs.

Doing this kind of thing conditionally is only of any use if you ensure that _all_ the places you are using the new symbols you conditionally define are also appropriately conditionalised, which in this patch they aren't.

Hello,

This path set allows to fix one errata for PJ4B CPUs.

Without this the Armada 370 based board can't boot anymore since 3.10-rc1. So this one really need to be applied on 3.10-rc.

Both of the patches of this series are needed to fix the issue. Indeed if the CPU is not recognized as a PJ4B then the fix is not applied.

Does this need a CC stable as well? I know that my TLB patch tickled it, but that's not to say it couldn't occur with particular configurations of older kernels.

Well according to stable_kernel_rules.txt " It must fix a real bug that bothers people (not a, "This could be a problem..." type thing)."

So I am not sure that it should go to stable. But it is arguable. Then I will add the Cc: <[email protected]> flag to the patches when I will submit them to Russell pacth system.
