Pull ARM SoC cleanups from Arnd Bergmann:
 "A few simple cleanups across multiple platforms, not much standing
  out:

   - lpc32xx removes its private implementation of the clk API, after
     generic code was merged in 4.5
   - all unused Makefile.boot files get removed
   - a number of simplifications for shmobile
   - asm/clkdev.h gets replaced with the asm-generic version after all
     mach/clkdev.h implementations are gone"

* tag 'armsoc-cleanup' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc:
  ARM: shmobile: Kconfig: Get rid of old comment
  ARM: shmobile: Consolidate SCU mapping code

  arm: lpc32xx: remove selected HAVE_IDE

<title>ARM: 8518/1: Use correct symbols for XIP_KERNEL</title>

<id>02afa9a87b232bca15bc30808b9310c6388ca1a8</id>
<content type='text'>
For an XIP build, _etext does not represent the end of the
binary image that needs to stay mapped into the MODULES_VADDR area.
Years ago, data came before text in the memory map. However,
now that the order is text/init/data, an XIP_KERNEL needs to map
up to the data location in order to keep from cutting off
parts of the kernel that are needed.
We only map up to the beginning of data because data has already been
copied, so there's no reason to keep it around anymore.
A new symbol is created to make it clear what it is we are referring
to.

This fixes the bug where you might lose the end of your kernel area
after page table setup is complete.

This enables the generic early_ioremap implementation for ARM.

It uses the fixmap region reserved for kmap. Since early_ioremap
is only supported before paging_init(), and kmap is only supported
afterwards, this is guaranteed not to cause any clashes.

     loads/stores to access userspace.  Only the proper accessors will
     be usable.

   - addition of early fixup support for early console

   - re-addition (and reimplementation) of OMAP special interconnect
     barrier

   - removal of finish_arch_switch()

   - only expose cpuX/online in sysfs if hotpluggable

<title>mm: clean up per architecture MM hook header files</title>

Commit 2ae416b142b6 ("mm: new mm hook framework") introduced an empty
header file (mm-arch-hooks.h) for every architecture, even those which
doesn't need to define mm hooks.

As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use
of a generic header file included via each per architecture
asm/include/Kbuild file.

The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has
to defined the arch_remap MM hook.
