theres no need to declare ram{end,start,base} in the head.S files
when declaring them with the other memory related variables in setup.c
is so much simpler/nicer

Print out debug info, as early as possible - even before the
kernel initializes the interrupt vectors. Now we can print out debug
messages almost anytime during the boot process.

rewrite our reboot code in C rather than assembly to be like
other architectures and to allow board maintainers to define
custom behavior

- allow people to select the feature that is unavailable to the kernel: NMI, JTAG, or CYCLES.
- change default NMI handler to simply dump hardware trace buffer.
- remove default NMI handler completely as calling into kernel code is not safe
move example handler to wiki so people dont haphazardly copy and paste this stuff thinking its safe

Add ability to expend the hardware trace buffer via a configurable
software buffer - so you can have lots of history when a crash occurs.
The interesting way we do printk in the traps.c confusese the checking
script

Fix CCLK and SCLK checks, combine all arch checks into one file
for maintance. Checkins that remove more lines than they add are always
good.

revise anomaly handling by basing things on the compiler not the kconfig defines,
so the header is stable and usable outside of the kernel. This also allows us to
move some code from preprocessing to compiling (gcc culls dead code)
which should help with code quality (readability, catch minor bugs, etc...).

Turns on trace earlier, so crashes at kernel start should print out a
trace, making things easier to debug.

This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix! Tinyboards.
The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc. (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000. Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices. The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set. It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.
The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf
The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibc
This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/
We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
be found at:
