commit 5b57ba37e82a15f345a6a2eb8c01a2b2d94c5eeb upstream.

In the old times, the whole idle task was considered
as an RCU quiescent state. But as RCU became more and
more successful overtime, some RCU read side critical
section have been added even in the code of some
architectures idle tasks, for tracing for example.

So nowadays, rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() must
be called by the architecture to tell RCU about the part
in the idle loop that doesn't make use of rcu read side
critical sections, typically the part that puts the CPU
in low power mode.

This is necessary for RCU to find the quiescent states in
idle in order to complete grace periods.

Add this missing pair of calls in the m68k's idle loop.

User space access must always go through uaccess accessors, since on

Pull m68knommu arch update from Greg Ungerer:
 "Quite a varied set of changes this time.
   - A little more merge cleanup, this time the assembler entry code.
   - New sub-architecture support for the ColdFire 5251/5253 and 5441x
     CPU families.
   - Specific clk support code for the ColdFire 520x and 532x CPU
     familes.
   - Refactoring of the ColdFire GPIO support.
   - PCI bus support for some ColdFire CPUS that have PCI hardware (54xx
     family).  This showed up a few problems with ColdFire cache,
     allocating coherent memory and bi-directional DMA support.  Fixes
     for those too."

<title>m68k: add support for DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL in dma support functions</title>

<id>d2661c621525956dfdd1e66e1e4fd94b7e4b6ed5</id>
<content type='text'>
The dma cache support functions do not currently support the direction flag
DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL. If a driver passes this direction to dma_map_single or
friends you will get console output like this:

  dma_sync_single_for_device: unsupported dir 0

For example when using the Intel e100 ethernet driver on a ColdFire platform
with PCI bus. You will get a stream of these messages coming out.

Modify the dma cache support code adding support for DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL. It is
actioned by doing a cache push operation.

On all ColdFire platforms (whether MMU enabled or not) we want to use the
simple page based dma_alloc_coherent. We don't want the virtual mapping
version that is used on classic m68k setups. So modify the conditionals
to use the existing simpler dma_alloc_coherent on all ColdFire and non-MMU
builds.

Some of the entry.S code is common to both MMU and non-MMU builds.
So merge the entry_no.S and entry_mm.S files back into a single file.
With a little code movement we only need a single #ifdef.
