Subject: [PATCH 18/21] ARM: drop SMP support for ARM11MPCore

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>

The cache management operations for noncoherent DMA on ARMv6 work
in two different ways:

 * When CONFIG_DMA_CACHE_RWFO is set, speculative prefetches on in-flight
   DMA buffers lead to data corruption when the prefetched data is written
   back on top of data from the device.

 * When CONFIG_DMA_CACHE_RWFO is disabled, a cache flush on one CPU
   is not seen by the other core(s), leading to inconsistent contents
   accross the system.

As a consequence, neither configuration is actually safe to use in a
general-purpose kernel that is used on both MPCore systems and ARM1176
with prefetching enabled.

We could add further workarounds to make the behavior more dynamic based
on the system, but realistically, there are close to zero remaining
users on any ARM11MPCore anyway, and nobody seems too interested in it,
compared to the more popular ARM1176 used in BMC2835 and AST2500.

The Oxnas platform has some minimal support in OpenWRT, but most of the
drivers and dts files never made it into the mainline kernel, while the
Arm Versatile/Realview platform mainly serves as a reference system but
is not necessary to be kept working once all other ARM11MPCore are gone.

Take the easy way out here and drop support for multiprocessing on
ARMv6, along with the CONFIG_DMA_CACHE_RWFO option and the cache
management implementation for it. This also helps with other ARMv6
issues, but for the moment leaves the ability to build a kernel that
can run on both ARMv7 SMP and single-processor ARMv6, which we probably
want to stop supporting as well, but not as part of this series.

I could use some help clarifying the above changelog text to describe
the exact problem, and how the CONFIG_DMA_CACHE_RWFO actually works on
MPCore. The TRMs for both 1176 and 11MPCore only describe prefetching
into the instruction cache, not the data cache, but this can end up in
the outercache as a result. The 1176 has some extra control bits to
control prefetching, but I found no reference that explains why an
MPCore does not run into the problem.
