078a55fc82 MIPS: Delete __cpuinit/__CPUINIT usage from MIPS code
commit 3747069b25e419f6b51395f48127e9812abc3596 upstream.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

Here, we remove all the MIPS __cpuinit from C code and __CPUINIT
from asm files.  MIPS is interesting in this respect, because there
are also uasm users hiding behind their own renamed versions of the
__cpuinit macros.

37a7059bc4 MIPS: Netlogic: use preset loops per jiffy
Doing calibrate delay on a hardware thread will be inaccurate since
it depends on the load on other threads in the core. It will also
slow down the boot process when done for 128 hardware threads. Switch
to a pre-computed loops per jiffy based on the core frequency. The
value is computed based on the core frequency and roughly matches the
value calculated by calibrate_delay().

4e45e542cd MIPS: Netlogic: Use PIC timer as a clocksource
The XLR/XLS/XLP PIC has a 8 countdown timers which run at the PIC
frequencey. One of these can be used as a clocksource to provide
timestamps that is common across cores. This can be used in place
of the count/compare clocksource which is per-CPU.

On XLR/XLS PIC registers are 32-bit, so we just use the lower 32-bits
of the PIC counter. On XLP, the whole 64-bit can be used.

Provide common macros and functions for PIC timer registers on XLR/XLS
and XLP, and use them to register a PIC clocksource.

0c9654072a MIPS: Netlogic: Move code common with XLP to common/
- Move code that can be shared with XLP (irq.c, smp.c, time.c and
  xlr_console.c) to arch/mips/netlogic/common
- Add asm/netlogic/haldefs.h and asm/netlogic/common.h for common and
  io functions shared with XLP
- remove type 'nlm_reg_t *' and use uint64_t for mmio offsets
- Move XLR specific code in smp.c to xlr/wakeup.c
- Move XLR specific PCI code from irq.c to mips/pci/pci-xlr.c
- Provide API for pic functions called from common/irq.c
