commit 244eae91a94c6dab82b3232967d10eeb9dfa21c6 upstream.

Recent tightening of the opcode table in binutils so as to consistently
disallow the assembly or disassembly of CP0 instructions not supported
by the processor architecture chosen has caused a regression like below:

arch/mips/dec/prom/locore.S: Assembler messages:
arch/mips/dec/prom/locore.S:29: Error: opcode not supported on this processor: r4600 (mips3) `rfe'

in a piece of code used to probe for memory with PMAX DECstation models,
which have non-REX firmware.  Those computers always have an R2000 CPU
and consequently the exception handler used in memory probing uses the
RFE instruction, which those processors use.

While adding 64-bit support this code was correctly excluded for 64-bit
configurations, however it should have also been excluded for irrelevant
32-bit configurations.  Do this now then, and only enable PMAX memory
probing for R3k systems.

commit 68fe55680d0f3342969f49412fceabb90bdfadba upstream.

Fix a commit 3021773c7c3e ("MIPS: DEC: Avoid la pseudo-instruction in
delay slots") regression and remove assembly errors:

arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S: Assembler messages:
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:162: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:163: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:229: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"
arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:230: Error: Macro used $at after ".set noat"

triggering with with the CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS option set and the DADDIU
instruction.  This is because with that option in place the instruction
becomes a macro, which expands to an LI/DADDU (or actually ADDIU/DADDU)
sequence that uses $at as a temporary register.

With CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS we only support `-msym32' compilation though,
and this is already enforced in arch/mips/Makefile, so choose the 32-bit
expansion variant for the supported configurations and then replace the
64-bit variant with #error just in case.

When expanding the la or dla pseudo-instruction in a delay slot the GNU
assembler will complain should the pseudo-instruction expand to multiple
actual instructions, since only the first of them will be in the delay
slot leading to the pseudo-instruction being only partially executed if
the branch is taken. Use of PTR_LA in the dec int-handler.S leads to
such warnings:

  arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S: Assembler messages:
  arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:149: Warning: macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions in a branch delay slot
  arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:198: Warning: macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions in a branch delay slot

Avoid this by open coding the PTR_LA macros.

<title>MIPS: DEC: Do not set up the FPU interrupt if no FPU</title>

Following the arrangement for processors that wire FPU exceptions to the
FPE CPU exception handle the case where no FPU is in use -- which for
DECstation systems will only ever happen when the "nofpu" kernel option
has been used -- do not register the FPU interrupt in such a case
either.

Implement a cheap way to count FPU interrupts for R2k/R3k DECstation
systems.  Do this manually in handcoded assembly, rather than calling
`kstat_incr_irq_this_cpu' that would require setting up a stack frame
and a lot of redirection.  This is not going to be a problem because the
FPU interrupt is local to the CPU and also there is one CPU only anyway.

So at bootstrap determine the address of the correct location within
`struct irq_desc', and then only refer to it directly in the interrupt
handler.

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
 - three fixes for 3.15 that didn't make it in time
 - limited Octeon 3 support.
 - paravirtualization support
 - improvment to platform support for Netlogix SOCs.
 - add support for powering down the Malta eval board in software
 - add many instructions to the in-kernel microassembler.

   emulation.
 - improvments to the MIPS CPS code.
 - support C3 power status for the R4k count/compare clock device.

On R4k DECstations the Halt button is wired to the NMI processor input
rather than an ordinary interrupt input such as on R3k DECstations.  This
is possible with a different design of the CPU daughtercard that routes
the Halt button line from the baseboard connector.  Additionally the
interrupt input has been reused for a different purpose on the KN04 and
KN05 R4k CPU daughtercards so it is better kept masked.
