      MIPS: Reimplement get_cycles(). · 9c9b415c
      Ralf Baechle authored
      This essentially reverts commit efb9ca08
      (kernel.org) / 58020a106879a8b372068741c81f0015c9b0b96dbv [[MIPS] Change
      get_cycles to always return 0.]
      
      Most users of get_cycles() invoke it as a timing interface.  That's why
      in modern kernels it was never very much missed for.  /dev/random however
      uses get_cycles() in the how the jitter in the interrupt timing contains
      some useful entropy.

      MIPS: Optimize current_cpu_type() for better code. · 69f24d17
      Ralf Baechle authored
       o Move current_cpu_type() to a separate header file
       o #ifdefing on supported CPU types lets modern GCC know that certain
         code in callers may be discarded ideally turning current_cpu_type() into
         a function returning a constant.
       o Use current_cpu_type() rather than direct access to struct cpuinfo_mips.

      Caches in most systems are identical - but not always, so we can't avoid
      the use of smp_call_function() by just looking at the boot CPU's data,
      have to fiddle with preemption instead.

      MIPS: Provide nice way to access boot CPU's data. · c5f66596
      Ralf Baechle authored
      boot_cpu_data is used the same as current_cpu_data but returns the CPU
      data for CPU 0.  This means it doesn't have to use smp_processor_id()
      thus no need to disable preemption.

      Aaro Koskinen authored
      Enable only those interrupts that we can handle & acknowledge in the
      interrupt handler.
      
      At least on EdgeRouter Lite, the hardware may occasionally interrupt with
      some error condition when the physical link status changes frequently.
      Since the interrupt condition is not acked properly, this leads to the
      following warning and the IRQ gets disabled completely:

      partitions/efi: loosen check fot pmbr size in lba · 6b02fa59
      Davidlohr Bueso authored
      Matt found that commit 27a7c642 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr
      size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot.  The
      reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of
      the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA.  While most disk
      partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics,
      Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit
      limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1].
      
      Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk
      or 0xFFFFFFFF.  No tool in its right mind would set it to any value
      other than these.
