This patch implements support for ARMv6 performance counters in the
Linux performance events subsystem. ARMv6 architectures that have the
performance counters should enable HW_PERF_EVENTS to get hardware
performance events support in addition to the software events.
Note: only ARM Ltd ARM cores are supported.
This implementation also provides an ARM PMU abstraction layer to allow
ARMv7 and others to be supported in the future by adding new a
'struct arm_pmu'.

To add support for perf events and to allow the hardware counters to be
shared with oprofile, we need a way to reserve access to the pmu
(performance monitor unit). Platforms with PMU interrupts should
register the interrupts in arch/arm/kernel/pmu.c

Fix:
arch/arm/mach-sa1100/generic.c:117: error: redefinition of 'cpufreq_get'
include/linux/cpufreq.h:299: error: previous definition of 'cpufreq_get' was here
cpufreq_get() is used on these platforms to tell drivers what the CPU
frequency is, and therefore the bus frequency - which is critical for
setting the PCMCIA and LCD timings. Adding ifdefs to these drivers to
select cpufreq_get() or some other interface adds confusion. Making
these drivers use some other interface for the normal paths and cpufreq
stuff for the cpufreq notifier is insane as well.
(Why x86 can't provide a version of cpufreq_get() which returns the
CPU frequency when CPUFREQ is disabled is beyond me, rather than
requiring a dummy zero-returning cpufreq_get(). Especially as they
do:
unsigned long khz = cpufreq_get(cpu);
if (!khz)
khz = tsc_khz;
In other words, if CPUFREQ is disabled, get it from tsc_khz - why
not provide a dummy cpufreq_get() which returns tsc_khz?)

We inted to re-organise the plat-s3c/plat-s3c24xx/plat-s3c64xx into a
more generic plat-samsung with less code in the other plat- directories
to make it easier to port new devices and try and clear up some of the
naming issues with newer devices.
Start by creating a small arch/arm/plat-samsung with no actuall code in
so we can move items in as we process them.
Add this to arch/arm to allow it to build things once support is added.

This updates the IOP platform to use the kernel's generic time
framework. With clockevent support in place, this reduces to
selecting GENERIC_TIME and removing the platform's private timer
->offset() operation (iop_gettimeoffset).

This updates the IOP platform to expose the interrupting
timer 0 as a clockevent object. The timer interrupt handler
is changed to call the clockevent ->event_handler() instead
of timer_tick(), and ->set_next_event() and ->set_mode()
operations are added to allow the mode of the timer to be
updated (required for ONESHOT/NOHZ mode).
Timer 0 must now be properly initialised, which requires
a new write_tcr0() function from the mach-specific code.
The mode of timer 0 must be read at the start of ->set_mode(),
which requires a new read_tmr0() function from the mach-
specific code.
Initial setup of timer 0 is also rewritten to be more robust.
Tested on n2100, compile-tested for all plat-iop machines.

before this patch ARM had it's own definition of CONFIG_PREEMPT.
Instead of that use the general definition provided in
kernel/Kconfig.preempt.
This patch changes the available options in *config. Namely PREEMPT
isn't a stand alone bool anymore, but part of a 'choice' the
following Kconfig symbols are added:
PREEMPT_NONE
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY
Selecting PREEMPT_NONE now produces exactly the code as not selecting
PREEMPT before (apart from a comment in
/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/(per_cpu/cpuX/)?trace). The only difference
PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY does is that might_resched might reschedule. Both
should't introduce regressions.

This patch provides initial support for CPU frequency scaling on the
Samsung S3C ARM processors. Currently only S3C6410 processors are
supported, though addition of another data table with supported clock
rates should be sufficient to enable support for further CPUs.
Use the regulator framework to provide optional support for DVFS in
the S3C cpufreq driver. When a software controllable regulator is
configured the driver will use it to lower the supply voltage when
running at a lower frequency, giving improved power savings.
When regulator support is disabled or no regulator can be obtained
for VDDARM the driver will fall back to scaling only the frequency.
