base offset before using it. This makes it work the same as every other
implementation, and makes wdc at pioc on acorn32 work again. Fix the only
caller I found which depended on the old behaviour.
This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
and pte_l2_s_cache_mode. The cache-meaningful bits are different
for these descriptor types on some processor models.
* Add pte_*_cache_mask, corresponding to each above, which has a mask
of the cache-meangful bits, and define those for generic and XScale
MMU classes. Note, the L2_S_CACHE_MASK_xscale definition requires
use of the Extended Small Page L2 descriptor (the "X" bit overlaps
with AP bits otherwise).
This will allow improvements to the pmaps so that they can more easily defer expensive operations, eg tlb/cache flush, til the last possible moment.
Currently this is a no-op on most platforms, so they should see no difference.

Thorpe as an extension to the bus_space(9) API.
Only the mainbus has a working mmap... iomd, podulebus and isa dont have
one yet. Its trivial to add the iomd and isa's memory part but am a bit
hessistant to add it without knowing its implications by heart.
Podulebus might be implemented in 32 bits EASI but otherwise its not really
transparent since there is AFAIK no function to explicitly read one byte or
so .. or is this implemented in a higher level ?
ARM26 and arch/arm32/dnard (Shark) kernels compile and RiscPC and Shark
kernels are tested and function OK.
Implications of other ARM systems like hpcarm and ebarm are propably
minimal or solved trivially.
- pmap_enter()
- pmap_remove()
- pmap_protect()
- pmap_kenter_pa()
- pmap_kremove()
as described in pmap(9).
These calls are relatively conservative. It may be possible to
optimize these a little more.

handler to advance it to the next instruction if it wants execution to
continue there. This is how things have always worked on arm26.

cpufunc structure.
Also remove some more residual code for the support of multiple and non-ARM
CPUs.
