Mark Rutland 9327e2c6bb arm64: add CPU_HOTPLUG infrastructure
This patch adds the basic infrastructure necessary to support
CPU_HOTPLUG on arm64, based on the arm implementation. Actual hotplug
support will depend on an implementation's cpu_operations (e.g. PSCI).

Mark Rutland 652af89979 arm64: factor out spin-table boot method
The arm64 kernel has an internal holding pen, which is necessary for
some systems where we can't bring CPUs online individually and must hold
multiple CPUs in a safe area until the kernel is able to handle them.
The current SMP infrastructure for arm64 is closely coupled to this
holding pen, and alternative boot methods must launch CPUs into the pen,
where they sit before they are launched into the kernel proper.

With PSCI (and possibly other future boot methods), we can bring CPUs
online individually, and need not perform the secondary_holding_pen
dance. Instead, this patch factors the holding pen management code out
to the spin-table boot method code, as it is the only boot method
requiring the pen.

A new entry point for secondaries, secondary_entry is added for other
boot methods to use, which bypasses the holding pen and its associated
overhead when bringing CPUs online. The smp.pen.text section is also
removed, as the pen can live in head.text without problem.

The cpu_operations structure is extended with two new functions,
cpu_boot and cpu_postboot, for bringing a cpu into the kernel and
performing any post-boot cleanup required by a bootmethod (e.g.
resetting the secondary_holding_pen_release to INVALID_HWID).
Documentation is added for cpu_operations.

Mark Rutland cd1aebf527 arm64: reorganise smp_enable_ops
For hotplug support, we're going to want a place to store operations
that do more than bring CPUs online, and it makes sense to group these
with our current smp_enable_ops. For cpuidle support, we'll want to
group additional functions, and we may want them even for UP kernels.

This patch renames smp_enable_ops to the more general cpu_operations,
and pulls the definitions out of smp code such that they can be used in
UP kernels. While we're at it, fix up instances of the cpu parameter to
be an unsigned int, drop the init markings and rename the *_cpu
functions to cpu_* to reduce future churn when cpu_operations is
extended.

Marc Zyngier d329de3f2a arm64: SMP: rework the SMP code to be enabling method agnostic
In order to introduce PSCI support, let the SMP code handle
multiple enabling methods. This also allow CPUs to be booted
using different methods (though this feels a bit weird...).

In the process, move the spin-table code to its own file.

Catalin Marinas 08e875c16a arm64: SMP support
This patch adds SMP initialisation and spinlocks implementation for
AArch64. The spinlock support uses the new load-acquire/store-release
instructions to avoid explicit barriers. The architecture also specifies
that an event is automatically generated when clearing the exclusive
monitor state to wake up processors in WFE, so there is no need for an
explicit DSB/SEV instruction sequence. The SEVL instruction is used to
set the exclusive monitor locally as there is no conditional WFE and a
branch is more expensive.

For the SMP booting protocol, see Documentation/arm64/booting.txt.
