* MIPS: Allow kernel use of LL/SC to be separate from the presence of LL/SC.David Daney2009-09-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On some CPUs, it is more efficient to disable and enable interrupts in the kernel rather than use ll/sc for atomic operations. But if we were to set cpu_has_llsc to false, we would break the userspace futex interface (in asm/futex.h). We separate the two concepts, with a new predicate kernel_uses_llsc, that lets us disable the kernel's use of ll/sc while still allowing the futex code to use it. Also there were a couple of cases in bitops.h where we were using ll/sc unconditionally even if cpu_has_llsc were false.

* MIPS: Allow CPU specific overriding of CP0 hwrena impl bits.David Daney2009-06-17
| | | | | | | | Some CPUs have implementation dependent rdhwr registers. Allow them to be enabled on a per CPU basis. Signed-off-by: David Daney <ddaney@caviumnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
* MIPS: Allow R2 CPUs to turn off generation of 'ehb' instructions.David Daney2009-06-17
| | | | | | | | | | Some CPUs do not need ehb instructions after writing CP0 registers. By allowing ehb generation to be overridden in cpu-feature-overrides.h, we can save a few instructions in the TLB handler hot paths.

* MIPS: Enable CLO / CLZ instructions via separate CPU propertyRalf Baechle2009-05-14
| | | | | | | This is useful for IDT RC32332, RC32334 and NEC VR5500 processors which do not implement the full MIPS32 / MIPS64 architecture. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
