Load purgatory code in RAM and relocate it based on the location.
Relocation code has been inspired by module relocation code and purgatory
relocation code in kexec-tools.
Also compute the checksums of loaded kexec segments and store them in
purgatory.
Arch independent code provides this functionality so that arch dependent
bootloaders can make use of it.
Helper functions are provided to get/set symbol values in purgatory which
are used by bootloaders later to set things like stack and entry point of
second kernel etc.

...
In light of the commit 16f77de82f (Revert "MIPS: Save/restore MSA
context around signals") the MSA support in the kernel is incomplete.
Until the replacement for the former sigcontext changes is agreed upon
and in tree, mark MSA experimental & disable it by default.
MSA is only implemented by one CPU supported by the kernel, the P5600.
The P5600 is a 32 bit core, and thus MSA can only be used when the
experimental CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT option is enabled. Therefore
MSA is only being used in experimental settings anyway and this change
doesn't actually make any difference beyond clarifying the state of
MSA support.

MSA requires that Status.FR == 1, so for MIPS32 tasks MSA can only be
used if CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT is enabled. If it is not & the
kernel is 32bit, there's no point including support for MSA.

This patch introduces common clock framework integration for all
configurable on-chip clocks on Alchemy chips:
- 2 or 3 PLLs which generate integer multiples of the root rate 12MHz,
- 6 dividers which take one of the 3 PLLs as input and divide their
rate by either multiples of 2 or 1 (Au1300).
- another bank of up to 6 muxes which take either one of the 6
above dividers or one of the PLLs directly and divide their rate
further by 1, 2, 3 or 4.
- a few other sources which are used by onchip peripherals and are
informational.
This implementation will take the clock tree as it was set up
by boot firmware: all in-kernel boards should continue to work
without having to set up the clock tree in board code.
CLK_IGNORE_DISABLED will be removed once all drivers have been
converted.

The KVM_HOST_FREQ Kconfig symbol was used by KVM guest kernels to
override the timer frequency calculation to a value based on the host
frequency. Now that the KVM timer emulation is implemented independent
of the host timer frequency and defaults to 100MHz, adjust the working
of CONFIG_KVM_HOST_FREQ to match.
The Kconfig symbol now specifies the guest timer frequency directly, and
has been renamed accordingly to KVM_GUEST_TIMER_FREQ. It now defaults to
100MHz too and the help text is updated to make it clear that a zero
value will allow the normal timer frequency calculation to take place
(based on the emulated RTC).

This patch adds support for offlining CPUs via hotplug when using the
CONFIG_MIPS_CPS SMP implementation. When a CPU is offlined one of 2
things will happen:
- If the CPU is part of a core which implements the MT ASE and there
is at least one other VPE online within that core then the VPE will
be halted by settings its TCHalt bit.
- Otherwise if supported the core will be powered down via the CPC.
- Otherwise the CPU will hang by executing an infinite loop.
Bringing CPUs back online is then a process of either clearing the
appropriate VPEs TCHalt bit or powering up the appropriate core via the
CPC. Throughout the process the struct core_boot_config vpe_mask field
must be maintained such that mips_cps_boot_vpes will start & stop the
correct VPEs.

This patch adds code to generate entry & exit code for various low power
states available on systems based around the MIPS Coherent Processing
System architecture (ie. those with a Coherence Manager, Global
Interrupt Controller & for >=CM2 a Cluster Power Controller). States
supported are:
- Non-coherent wait. This state first leaves the coherent domain and
then executes a regular MIPS wait instruction. Power savings are
found from the elimination of coherency interventions between the
core and any other coherent requestors in the system.
- Clock gated. This state leaves the coherent domain and then gates
the clock input to the core. This removes all dynamic power from the
core but leaves the core at the mercy of another to restart its
clock. Register state is preserved, but the core can not service
interrupts whilst its clock is gated.
- Power gated. This deepest state removes all power input to the core.
All register state is lost and the core will restart execution from
its BEV when another core powers it back up. Because register state
is lost this state requires cooperation with the CONFIG_MIPS_CPS SMP
implementation in order for the core to exit the state successfully.
The code will detect which states are available on the current system
during boot & generate the entry/exit code for those states. This will
be used by cpuidle & hotplug implementations.

If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and
ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port
accessor functions outb/inb and friend unconditionally. So
HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this.
Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP.
The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT
that signals if outb/int et al are available. I will address that at
least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and
catch new introductions of (HAS|NO)_IOPORT.
The changes in this commit were done using:

This patch adds support for context switching the MSA vector registers.
These 128 bit vector registers are aliased with the FP registers - an
FP register accesses the least significant bits of the vector register
with which it is aliased (ie. the register with the same index). Due to
both this & the requirement that the scalar FPU must be 64-bit (FR=1) if
enabled at the same time as MSA the kernel will enable MSA & scalar FP
at the same time for tasks which use MSA. If we restore the MSA vector
context then we might as well enable the scalar FPU since the reason it
was left disabled was to allow for lazy FP context restoring - but we
just restored the FP context as it's a subset of the vector context. If
we restore the FP context and have previously used MSA then we have to
restore the whole vector context anyway (see comment in
enable_restore_fp_context for details) so similarly we might as well
enable MSA.
Thus if a task does not use MSA then it will continue to behave as
without this patch - the scalar FP context will be saved & restored as
usual. But if a task executes an MSA instruction then it will save &
restore the vector context forever more.

CONFIG_MIPS_CPS is a better option for systems where it is supported,
which as far as I am aware should be all systems where CONFIG_MIPS_CMP
could provide any value (ie. where there are multiple cores for YAMON to
bring up). This option is therefore deprecated, and marked as such. It
is left intact for the time being in order to provide a fallback should
someone find a system where CONFIG_MIPS_CPS will not function (ie. where
the reset vector cannot be moved), and should be removed entirely in the

Commit f55afb0969cc "MIPS: Clean up MIPS MT and CMP configuration
options." introduced a dependency upon MIPS_MT_SMP (ie. SMVP) for the
MIPS_CMP (ie. CMP framework support) Kconfig option. It did not specify
why, and that dependency is bogus. It is perfectly valid to have a
multi-core system with the YAMON bootloader but without MT support -
an example of this would be any multi-core proAptiv bitstream running on
a Malta. Forcing MT support to be enabled in a kernel for such a system
is incorrect. I suspect that the dependency was actually meant to
reflect the fact that YAMON will only bind 1 TC per VPE on an MT system,
and only describe those 1:1 TC:VPE pairs as CPUs through the AMON
interface. Thus an SMTC kernel makes little sense on a system using
MIPS_CMP, and the Kconfig dependencies should reflect that rather than
introducing the bogus SMVP dependency.

The prior help text introduced in commit f55afb0969cc "MIPS: Clean up
MIPS MT and CMP configuration options." reads as though this option
enables the kernel to make use of the CM hardware, which is not true.
What it actually does is allow the kernel to interact with the YAMON
bootloader which actually interacts with the CM hardware to bring up
secondary cores. Re-introduce the word "framework" which that commit
removed to avoid misleading people.

This patch simply attempts to register the MIPS Coherent Processing
System SMP implementation when it is enabled. If registering that fails
for some reason (like the Kconfig option being disabled or a lack of
hardware support) then we fall back to the same SMP implementations as
before.

Remove the Malta-specific CM probe code and instead make use of the
newly added generic CM code.
