projects/armv6 merged to HEAD

[Oleksandr Tymoshenko-2]

Hello,

projects/armv6 branch was merged to HEAD and should be considered
dead now. This patch is a result of a joint effort by many
people. Including but not limited to:

  Grzegorz Bernacki (gber@)
  Aleksander Dutkowski
  Ben R. Gray (bgray@)
  Olivier Houchard (cognet@)
  Rafal Jaworowski (raj@) and Semihalf team
  Tim Kientzle (kientzle@)
  Jakub Wojciech Klama (jceel@)
  Ian Lepore
  Warner Losh (imp@)
  Damjan Marion (dmarion@)
  Lukasz Plachno
  Stanislav Sedov (stas@)
  Mark Tinguely
  Andrew Turner (andrew@)

Thanks to all, who contributed by submitting code,
testing and giving valuable advices.

Code drop includes following parts:

- General ARMv6/ARMv7 kernel bits (pmap, cache,
    assembler routines, etc...)
- ARM SMP support
- VFP/Neon support
- ARM Generic Interrupt Controller driver
- Improved thread-local storage for cpus >=ARMv6
- Two new values for TARGET_ARCH: armv6 and armv6eb
- Driver for SMSC LAN95XX and LAN8710A ethernet controllers
- Marvell MV78x60 support (multiuser, ARMADA XP kernel config)
- TI OMAP4 and AM335x support (multiuser, no GPU or graphics
    support, kernel configs for Pandaboard and Beaglebone)
- LPC32x0 support (multiuser, frame buffer works with SSD1289
    LCD controller.Embedded Artists EA3250 kernel config)
- Barebone Nvidia Tegra2 support (timers, interrupts and UART.
    No kernel config)

Hope now that the code is in trunk it will get more attention
and love from developers.

Happy hacking

And this ought to simplify work on both the Rasberry Pi and BeagleBone, as well as the
rest of the arm systems.  Great!

Best,
George
