Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc
Pull Sparc updates from David S. Miller: 1) Remove the idiotic situation wherein Leon was a special case in all of the TLB/cache handling code. The worst side effect of this bogosity is that you couldn't build a kernel with Leon support enabled (to get better build coverage), and test boot it on a non-LEON cpu. Leon is, in all core respects, programatically identical to the 32-bit SRMMU. Except that they put the TLB registers in a different alternate address space location. Through code patching (for fast paths) and run time checks, this issue is now a thing of the past. From Sam Ravnborg. 2) There was a mis-merge of arch/sparc/Kconfig for one of the clockevents changes that went in, causing 32-bit sparc to start failing to build. I merged in your tree to get those clockevents changes (and added a note to the merge commit) then added Stephen Rothwell's fix for the merge error. 3) Software quad floating point emulation was not working properly on more recent Niagara chips, because the way the situation is reported by the cpu has changed. Nobody noticed because gcc emits calls to software emulation routines in glibc. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc: (25 commits) sparc: fix sparc64 build due to leon.h inclusion sparc32: remove unused variable in head_32.S sparc32,leon: fix leon bootup sparc32: Export leon_dma_ops to modules. sparc32: support leon + sun in dma_make_coherent() sparc32,leon: always support leon in ioport sparc32,leon: always include leon_pmc in build sparc32: refactor cpu_idle() sparc32: srmmu_probe now knows about leon too sparc32: drop LEON hack for ASI_M_MMUREGS sparc32: introduce run-time patching of srmmu access functions sparc32: introduce support for run-time patching for all shared assembler code sparc32,leon: fix section mismatch warning sparc32,leon: always include leon_smp + leon_mm in build sparc32,leon: always include leon_kernel in build sparc32,leon: clean up leon.h sparc32: handle leon in cpu.c sparc32: handle leon in irq_32.c sparc32: add support for run-time patching of leon/sun single instructions sparc32: introduce sparc32_start_kernel called from head_32.S ...
