In noMMU mode, various of functions which are defined in mm/proc-*.S
is not valid or needed to be avoided. i.g. switch_mm is not needed,
just returns and this makes the I & D caches are valid which shows
great improvement of performance including task switching and IPC.

proc-v6 contains some compatibility to be able to use the V6
"cps" instruction. However, the kernel makes use of this
instruction elsewhere extensively, so there's no point keeping
this compatibility anymore.

Move the hardware PMD and PTE page table definitions from pgtable.h
into pgtable-hwdef.h, and include pgtable-hwdef.h as necessary.

We need to set the shared memory attribute in the page tables
on SMP systems to allow the cache coherency to operate.

Patch from Tony Lindgren
Machine restart calls cpu_proc_fin() to clean and disable
cache, and turn off interrupts. This patch adds proper
cpu_v6_proc_fin.

Patch from Ben Dooks
The `make buildcheck` is erroneously reporting that the .proc.info
list is referencing items in the .init section as it is not itself
postfixed with .init

Unfortunately, we can't use the "user" bit in the page tables to
control whether a page table entry is "global" or "asid" specific,
since the vector page is mapped as "user" accessible but is not
process specific.
Therefore, give direct control of the ARMv6 "nG" (not global)
bit to the mm layers.

Patch from Catalin Marinas
The VFP instructions trigger undefined exceptions because the access to
CP11 is disabled (only CP10 is currently enabled by the kernel). The patch
fixes this problem.

Patch from Catalin Marinas
cpu_v6_set_pte() sets the kernel access rights to r/o for user
pages (L_PTE_USER) when neither L_PTE_WRITE nor L_PTE_DIRTY are
set. This causes a kernel data abort when writing the TLS value
in the 0xffff0000 page. This patch enables the kernel r/w access.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
