[ Upstream commit 43900edf67d7ef3ac8909854d75b8a1fba2d570c ]

As of today the ICCM and DCCM size checks are incorrectly using
mismatched units (KiB checked against bytes). The CONFIG_ARC_DCCM_SZ
and CONFIG_ARC_ICCM_SZ are in KiB, but the size calculated in
runtime and stored in cpu-&gt;dccm.sz and cpu-&gt;iccm.sz is in bytes.

Fix that.

[ Upstream commit edb64bca50cd736c6894cc6081d5263c007ce005 ]

In case of devboards we really often disable bootloader and load
Linux image in memory via JTAG. Even if kernel tries to verify
uboot_tag and uboot_arg there is sill a chance that we treat some
garbage in registers as valid u-boot arguments in JTAG case.
E.g. it is enough to have '1' in r0 to treat any value in r2 as
a boot command line.

So check that magic number passed from u-boot is correct and drop
u-boot arguments otherwise. That helps to reduce the possibility
of using garbage as u-boot arguments in JTAG case.

We can safely check U-boot magic value (0x0) in linux passed via
r1 register as U-boot pass it from the beginning. So there is no
backward-compatibility issues.

commit a66f2e57bd566240d8b3884eedf503928fbbe557 upstream.

Handle U-boot arguments paranoidly:
 * don't allow to pass unknown tag.
 * try to use external device tree blob only if corresponding tag
   (TAG_DTB) is set.
 * don't check uboot_tag if kernel build with no ARC_UBOOT_SUPPORT.

NOTE:
If U-boot args are invalid we skip them and try to use embedded device
tree blob. We can't panic on invalid U-boot args as we really pass
invalid args due to bug in U-boot code.
This happens if we don't provide external DTB to U-boot and
don't set 'bootargs' U-boot environment variable (which is default
case at least for HSDK board) In that case we will pass
{r0 = 1 (bootargs in r2); r1 = 0; r2 = 0;} to linux which is invalid.

While I'm at it refactor U-boot arguments handling code.

<title>ARC: boot log: refactor cpu name/release printing</title>

The motivation is to identify ARC750 vs. ARC770 (we currently print
generic "ARC700").

A given ARC700 release could be 750 or 770, with same ARCNUM (or family
identifier which is unfortunate). The existing arc_cpu_tbl[] kept a single
concatenated string for core name and release which thus doesn't work
for 750 vs. 770 identification.

So split this into 2 tables, one with core names and other with release.
And while we are at it, get rid of the range checking for family numbers.
We just document the known to exist cores running Linux and ditch
others.

With this in place, we add detection of ARC750 which is
 - cores 0x33 and before
 - cores 0x34 and later with MMUv2

were getting instruction errors because of lack of SWAPE but boot log

On older arc700 cores, some of the features configured were not present
in Build config registers. To print about them at boot, we just use the
Kconfig option i.e. whether linux is built to use them or not.
So yes this seems bogus, but what else can be done. Moreover if linux is
booting with these enabled, then the Kconfig info is a good indicator
anyways.

Over time these "hacks" accumulated in read_arc_build_cfg_regs() as well
as arc_cpu_mumbojumbo(). so refactor and move all of those in a single
place: read_arc_build_cfg_regs(). This causes some code redcution too:

| bloat-o-meter2 arch/arc/kernel/setup.o.0 arch/arc/kernel/setup.o.1
| add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 2/1 up/down: 64/-132 (-68)
| function                                     old     new   delta
| setup_processor                              610     670     +60
| cpuinfo_arc700                                76      80      +4
| arc_cpu_mumbojumbo                           752     620    -132

Previously we would not print the case when IOC existed but was not
enabled.

And while at it, reduce one line off boot printing by consolidating
the Peripheral address space and IO-Coherency which in a way
applies to them

num_possible_cpus() returns how many CPUs may be present on system.
However we want the highest possible CPU number.
This may be differ in a sparsed possible CPUs map.
Such map achived by OF for plat-eznps.

For example if we have:
possible cpus mask 0,3

Then:
num_possible_cpus() is equal 2
	while
nr_cpu_ids is equal 4.

Only for value 4 c_start() will provide correct cpuinfo at procfs.

HS release 3.0 provides for even more flexibility in specifying the
volatile address space for mapping peripherals.

With HS 2.1 @start was made flexible / programmable - with HS 3.0 even
@end can be setup (vs. fixed to 0xFFFF_FFFF before).

So add code to reflect that and while at it remove an unused struct
