[MIPS] Kill unused inclusions

Big white-space cleanup.

2008-05-20T22:14:08+00:00

This commit gets rid of a huge amount of silly white-space issues.
Especially, all sequences of SPACEs followed by TAB characters get
removed (unless they appear in print statements).

Also remove all embedded "vim:" and "vi:" statements which hide
indentation problems.

Use jr as register jump instruction

2008-04-18T07:47:29+00:00

Current assembler codes are inconsistent in the way of register jump
instruction usage; some use jr, some use j. Of course GNU as allows both
usages, but as can be expected from `Jump Register' the mnemonic `jr' is
more intuitive than `j'. For example, Linux doesn't have `j ' usage
at all.

[MIPS] Cleanup CP0 Status initialization

2008-03-25T12:30:07+00:00

Add setup_c0_status from Linux. For the moment we disable interrupts, set
CU0, mark the kernel mode, and clear ERL and EXL. This is good enough for
reset-time configuration and will work well across most processors.

[MIPS] Initialize CP0 Cause before setting up CP0 Status register

2008-03-25T12:30:07+00:00

Without this change, we'll be suffering from deffered WATCH exception
once Status.EXL is cleared. Make sure Cause.WP is cleared.

[MIPS] Request for the 'mips_cache_lock()' removal

2008-03-25T02:39:29+00:00

The initial intension of having mips_cache_lock() was to use the cache
as memory for temporary stack use so that a C environment can be set up
as early as possible.

But now mips_cache_lock() follow lowlevel_init(). We've already have the
real memory initilaized at this point, therefore we could/should use it.
No reason to lock at all.

Other problems:

Cache locking is not consistent across MIPS implementaions. Some imple-
mentations don't support locking at all. The style of locking varies -
some support per line locking, others per way, etc. Some parts use bits
in status registers instead of cache ops. Current mips_cache_lock() is
not necessarily general-purpose.

And this is worthy of special mention; once U-Boot/MIPS locks the lines,
they are never get unlocked, so the code relies on whatever gets loaded
after U-Boot to re-initialize the cache and clear the locks. We're sup-
posed to have CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK and unlock_ram_in_cache() implemented,
but leave the situation as it is for a long time.

For these reasons, I proposed the removal of mips_cache_lock() from the
global start-up code.

This patch adds CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK_MIPS to make existing users aware that
*things have changed*. If he wants the same behavior as before, he needs
to have CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK_MIPS in his config file.

If we don't have any regression report through several releases, then
we'll remove codes entirely.
