Wu Zhangjin db54ff246e MIPS: Loongson early_printk: Fix variable type of uart_base
The uart_base variable here is not a physical address, so, we replace it
by unsigned char *.

Christoph Hellwig 6b2f3d1f76 vfs: Implement proper O_SYNC semantics
While Linux provided an O_SYNC flag basically since day 1, it took until
Linux 2.4.0-test12pre2 to actually get it implemented for filesystems,
since that day we had generic_osync_around with only minor changes and the
great "For now, when the user asks for O_SYNC, we'll actually give
O_DSYNC" comment.  This patch intends to actually give us real O_SYNC
semantics in addition to the O_DSYNC semantics.  After Jan's O_SYNC
patches which are required before this patch it's actually surprisingly
simple, we just need to figure out when to set the datasync flag to
vfs_fsync_range and when not.

This patch renames the existing O_SYNC flag to O_DSYNC while keeping it's
numerical value to keep binary compatibility, and adds a new real O_SYNC
flag.  To guarantee backwards compatiblity it is defined as expanding to
both the O_DSYNC and the new additional binary flag (__O_SYNC) to make
sure we are backwards-compatible when compiled against the new headers.

This also means that all places that don't care about the differences can
just check O_DSYNC and get the right behaviour for O_SYNC, too - only
places that actuall care need to check __O_SYNC in addition.  Drivers and
network filesystems have been updated in a fail safe way to always do the
full sync magic if O_DSYNC is set.  The few places setting O_SYNC for
lower layers are kept that way for now to stay failsafe.

We enforce that O_DSYNC is set when __O_SYNC is set early in the open path
to make sure we always get these sane options.

Note that parisc really screwed up their headers as they already define a
O_DSYNC that has always been a no-op.  We try to repair it by using it for
the new O_DSYNC and redefinining O_SYNC to send both the traditional
O_SYNC numerical value _and_ the O_DSYNC one.

Linus Torvalds dcbb5593d9 loongson: fix cut-and-paste mis-merge
Ingo points out that I screwed up when merging the 'timers-for-linus'
branch in commit a03fdb7612.

A bit too much copy-and-pasting caused the end result to have an
extraneous 'return' in the middle of an expression.  That was obviously
bogus.  Blush.

Wu Zhangjin 3209e70e5e MIPS: Loongson: Add a machtype kernel command line argument
The difference between some loongson-based machines is very small, so, if
there is no necessary to add new kernel config options to cope with this
difference, it will be better to share the same kernel image file between
them, benefit from this, the linux distribution developers only have a need
to compile the kernel one time.

This machtype kernel command line argument will be used later to share the
same kernel image file between two different machines(menglong & yeeloong)
made by lemote.

Thanks very much to Zhang Le for cleaning up the machtype implementation.

Wu Zhangjin 85749d24bc MIPS: Loongson: Split common loongson source code out
To share common loongson source code between all of the loongson-based
machines. there is a need to split it out of the fuloong-2e/ directory.
at the same time, other according tuning is needed. the machine-specific
parts are defined as macros in relative header file, pci.h, mem.h,
machine.h.
