Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
 "Some more ARM fixes, nothing particularly major here.  The biggest
  change is to fix the SMP_ON_UP code so that it works with TI's Aegis
  cores"

* 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm:
  ARM: 7851/1: check for number of arguments in syscall_get/set_arguments()
  ARM: 7846/1: Update SMP_ON_UP code to detect A9MPCore with 1 CPU devices
  ARM: 7845/1: sharpsl_param.c: fix invalid memory access for pxa devices
  ARM: 7843/1: drop asm/types.h from generic-y

This fixes a regression for kernels after v3.2

After commit 72662e01088394577be4a3f14da94cf87bea2591
ARM: head.S: only include __turn_mmu_on in the initial identity mapping

Zaurus PXA devices call sharpsl_save_param() during fixup and hang on
boot because memcpy refers to physical addresses no longer valid if the
MMU is setup.
Zaurus collie (SA1100) is unaffected (function is called in init_machine).

The code was making assumptions and for PXA the virtual address
should have been used before.

Currently mcpm_cpu_power_down() and mcpm_cpu_suspend() trigger BUG()
if mcpm_platform_register() is not called beforehand.  This may occur
for many reasons such as some incomplete device tree passed to the kernel
or the like.

Let's be nicer to users and avoid killing the kernel if that happens by
logging a warning and returning to the caller.  The mcpm_cpu_suspend()
user is already set to deal with this situation, and so is cpu_die()
invoking mcpm_cpu_die().

The problematic case would have been the B.L switcher's usage of
mcpm_cpu_power_down(), however it has to call mcpm_cpu_power_up() first
which is already set to catch an error resulting from a missing
mcpm_platform_register() call.

<title>ARM: edma: Fix clearing of unused list for DT DMA resources</title>

HWMOD removal for MMC is breaking edma_start as the events are being manually
triggered due to unused channel list not being clear.

The above issue is fixed by reading the "dmas" property from the DT node if it
exists and clearing the bits in the unused channel list if the dma controller
used by any device is EDMA. For this purpose we use the of_* helpers to parse
the arguments in the dmas phandle list.

Also introduced is a minor clean up of a checkpatch error in old code.

When a cpu goes to a deep idle state where its local timer is shutdown, it
notifies the time frame work to use the broadcast timer instead.

Unfortunately, the broadcast device could wake up any CPU, including an idle one
which is not concerned by the wake up at all.

This implies, in the worst case, an idle CPU will wake up to send an IPI to
another idle cpu.

This patch fixes this for ARM platforms using timer-sp, by setting
CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ feature.

<content type='text'>
In a similar manner to our spinlock implementation, mcpm uses sev to
wake up cores waiting on a lock when the lock is unlocked. In order to
ensure that the final write unlocking the lock is visible, a dsb
instruction is executed immediately prior to the sev.

This patch changes these dsbs to use the -st option, since we only
require that the store unlocking the lock is made visible.
