0xc0019e24 <+4>: ldr r0, [r1] <== here
with r1 containing 0xc06f82cd, which is the address of "clean_addr".
Examination of the System.map shows:
c06f22c8 D user_pmd_table
c06f22cc d __warned.19178
c06f22cd d clean_addr
indicating that a .data.unlikely section has appeared just before the
.data section from proc-xscale.S. According to objdump -h, it appears
that our assembly files default their .data alignment to 2**0, which
is bad news if the preceding .data section size is not power-of-2
aligned at link time.
Add the appropriate .align directives to all assembly files in arch/arm
that are missing them where we require an appropriate alignment.

This reverts commit 4dd1837d75.
Moving the exports for assembly code into the assembly files breaks
KSYM trimming, but also breaks modversions.
While fixing the KSYM trimming is trivial, fixing modversions brings
us to a technically worse position that we had prior to the above
change:
- We end up with the prototype definitions divorsed from everything
else, which means that adding or removing assembly level ksyms
become more fragile:
* if adding a new assembly ksyms export, a missed prototype in
asm-prototypes.h results in a successful build if no module in
the selected configuration makes use of the symbol.
* when removing a ksyms export, asm-prototypes.h will get forgotten,
with armksyms.c, you'll get a build error if you forget to touch
the file.
- We end up with the same amount of include files and prototypes,
they're just in a header file instead of a .c file with their
exports.
As for lines of code, we don't get much of a size reduction:

Since the commit "b2c3e38a5471 ARM: redo TTBR setup code for LPAE",
the setup code had been reworked. As a result the secondary CPUs
failed to come online in Big Endian.
As explained by Russell, the new code expected the value in r4/r5 to
be the least significant 32bits in r4 and the most significant 32bits
in r5. However, in the secondary code, we load this using ldrd, which
on BE reverses that.
This patch swap r4/r5 after the ldrd. It is done using the xor
instructions in order to not use a temporary register.

BSYM() was invented to allow us to work around a problem with the

Since we don't want BSYM() used elsewhere, replace BSYM() with a new
macro 'badr', which is like the 'adr' pseudo-op, but with the BSYM()
mechanics integrated into it. This ensures that the BSYM()-ification
is only used in conjunction with 'adr'.

ARMv6 and greater introduced a new instruction ("bx") which can be used
to return from function calls. Recent CPUs perform better when the
"bx lr" instruction is used rather than the "mov pc, lr" instruction,
and this sequence is strongly recommended to be used by the ARM
architecture manual (section A.4.1.1).
We provide a new macro "ret" with all its variants for the condition
code which will resolve to the appropriate instruction.
Rather than doing this piecemeal, and miss some instances, change all
the "mov pc" instances to use the new macro, with the exception of
the "movs" instruction and the kprobes code. This allows us to detect
the "mov pc, lr" case and fix it up - and also gives us the possibility
of deploying this for other registers depending on the CPU selection.

virt_to_page() is incredibly inefficient when virt-to-phys patching is
enabled. This is because we end up with this calculation:
page = &mem_map[asm virt_to_phys(addr) >> 12 - __pv_phys_offset >> 12]
in assembly. The asm virt_to_phys() is equivalent this this operation:
addr - PAGE_OFFSET + __pv_phys_offset
and we can see that because this is assembly, the compiler has no chance
to optimise some of that away. This should reduce down to:
page = &mem_map[(addr - PAGE_OFFSET) >> 12]
for the common cases. Permit the compiler to make this optimisation by
giving it more of the information it needs - do this by providing a
virt_to_pfn() macro.
Another issue which makes this more complex is that __pv_phys_offset is
a 64-bit type on all platforms. This is needlessly wasteful - if we
store the physical offset as a PFN, we can save a lot of work having
to deal with 64-bit values, which sometimes ends up producing incredibly
horrid code:

The current phys_to_virt patching mechanism works only for 32 bit
physical addresses and this patch extends the idea for 64bit physical
addresses.
The 64bit v2p patching mechanism patches the higher 8 bits of physical
address with a constant using 'mov' instruction and lower 32bits are patched
using 'add'. While this is correct, in those platforms where the lowmem addressable
physical memory spawns across 4GB boundary, a carry bit can be produced as a
result of addition of lower 32bits. This has to be taken in to account and added
in to the upper. The patched __pv_offset and va are added in lower 32bits, where
__pv_offset can be in two's complement form when PA_START < VA_START and that can
result in a false carry bit.
e.g
1) PA = 0x80000000; VA = 0xC0000000
__pv_offset = PA - VA = 0xC0000000 (2's complement)
2) PA = 0x2 80000000; VA = 0xC000000
__pv_offset = PA - VA = 0x1 C0000000
So adding __pv_offset + VA should never result in a true overflow for (1).
So in order to differentiate between a true carry, a __pv_offset is extended
to 64bit and the upper 32bits will have 0xffffffff if __pv_offset is
2's complement. So 'mvn #0' is inserted instead of 'mov' while patching
for the same reason. Since mov, add, sub instruction are to patched
with different constants inside the same stub, the rotation field
of the opcode is using to differentiate between them.
So the above examples for v2p translation becomes for VA=0xC0000000,
1) PA[63:32] = 0xffffffff
PA[31:0] = VA + 0xC0000000 --> results in a carry
PA[63:32] = PA[63:32] + carry
PA[63:0] = 0x0 80000000
2) PA[63:32] = 0x1
PA[31:0] = VA + 0xC0000000 --> results in a carry
PA[63:32] = PA[63:32] + carry
PA[63:0] = 0x2 80000000
The above ideas were suggested by Nicolas Pitre <nico@linaro.org> as
part of the review of first and second versions of the subject patch.
There is no corresponding change on the phys_to_virt() side, because
computations on the upper 32-bits would be discarded anyway.

The generic code is well equipped to differentiate between
SMP and UP configurations.However, there are some devices which
use Cortex-A9 MP core IP with 1 CPU as configuration. To let
these SOCs to co-exist in a CONFIG_SMP=y build by leveraging
the SMP_ON_UP support, we need to additionally check the
number the cores in Cortex-A9 MPCore configuration. Without
such a check in place, the startup code tries to execute
ALT_SMP() set of instructions which lead to CPU faults.
The issue was spotted on TI's Aegis device and this patch

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)
and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related 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 ARM uses of the __cpuinit macros from C code,
and all __CPUINIT from assembly code. It also had two ".previous"
section statements that were paired off against __CPUINIT
(aka .section ".cpuinit.text") that also get removed here.

an ordinary privileged mode ("PL1" modes in ARMv7-AR rev C

another privileged mode such as hyp mode.
