commit a6f089e95b1e08cdea9633d50ad20aa5d44ba64d upstream.
In the Armada 370/XP driver, when we receive an IRQ 0, we read the
list of doorbells that caused the interrupt from register
ARMADA_370_XP_IN_DRBEL_CAUSE_OFFS. This gives the list of IPIs that
were generated. However, instead of acknowledging only the IPIs that
were generated, we acknowledge *all* the IPIs, by writing
~IPI_DOORBELL_MASK in the ARMADA_370_XP_IN_DRBEL_CAUSE_OFFS register.
This creates a race condition: if a new IPI that isn't part of the
ones read into the temporary "ipimask" variable is fired before we
acknowledge all IPIs, then we will simply loose it. This is causing
scheduling hangs on SMP intensive workloads.
It is important to mention that this ARMADA_370_XP_IN_DRBEL_CAUSE_OFFS
register has the following behavior: "A CPU write of 0 clears the bits
in this field. A CPU write of 1 has no effect". This is what allows us
to simply write ~ipimask to acknoledge the handled IPIs.
Notice that the same problem is present in the MSI implementation, but
it will be fixed as a separate patch, so that this IPI fix can be
pushed to older stable versions as appropriate (all the way to 3.8),
while the MSI code only appeared in 3.13.

Pull ARM SoC late cleanups from Arnd Bergmann:
"These are cleanups and smaller changes that either depend on earlier
feature branches or came in late during the development cycle. We
normally try to get all cleanups early, so these are the exceptions:
- A follow-up on the clocksource reworks, hopefully the last time we
need to merge clocksource subsystem changes through arm-soc.
A first set of patches was part of the original 3.10 arm-soc
cleanup series because of interdependencies with timer drivers now
moved out of arch/arm.
- Migrating the SPEAr13xx platform away from using auxdata for DMA
channel descriptions towards using information in device tree,
based on the earlier SPEAr multiplatform series
- A few follow-ups on the Atmel SAMA5 support and other changes for
Atmel at91 based on the larger at91 reworks.
- Moving the armada irqchip implementation to drivers/irqchip
- Several OMAP cleanups following up on the larger series already
merged in 3.10."

In preparation for the introduction of MSI support in the IRQ
controller driver, we clarify the implementation of IPI using
additional defines for the manipulation of doorbells. Just like IPIs
are implemented using doorbells, MSIs will also use doorbells, so it
makes sense to do this preparatory cleanup first.

If we move the IRQ handler function above the initialization function,
we avoid a forward declaration. This wasn't done as part of the
previous commit, in order to increase the readibility of the previous
commit, who was also moving the IRQ controller driver from arch/arm to
drivers/irqchip.

When the Marvell Armada 370/XP support was included in the kernel, the
drivers/irqchip/ directory didn't exist and the minimal infrastructure
in it also didn't exist. Now that we have those things in place, we
move the Armada 370/XP IRQ controller driver from
arch/arm/mach-mvebu/irq-armada-370-xp.c to
drivers/irqchip/irq-armada-370-xp.c.
Note in order to reduce code movement and therefore ease the review of
this patch, we intentionally introduce a forward declaration of
armada_370_xp_handle_irq(). It is in fact not needed because this
handler can now simply be implemented before
armada_370_xp_mpic_of_init(). That will be done in the next commit.
