[PATCH v5 00/20] arm64: GICv3 support

[marc.zyngier@arm.com (Marc Zyngier)]

GICv3 is the base for a new generation of interrupt controllers
designed to overcome some of the most glaring limitations of GICv2.

Some of the features are:
- Support for more than 8 CPUs (a lot more...)
- System registers for CPU interface access (instead of the memory
  mapped GICC, GICV, GICH)
- Message based interrupts

This patch series currently support:
- Affinity Routing
- System Registers
- Non-Secure Group-1 interrupts only
- KVM support (GICv3 host, GICv2 guest)

What is *not yet* supported in this series (WIP):
- LPI/ITS/MSI (pending, depending on PCI)
- KVM GICv3 guest support (pending patches from Andre)
- Any form of power management (pending patches from Sudeep)
- 32bit systems (pending patches from Jean-Philippe)

To be built, this code requires a fairly recent compiler/binutils
combo. Linaro 13.06 seems to do the trick. This has been tested on the
ARM FVP and Foundation models, with non-regressions run on a VExpress
TC-2 and another Cortex-A57 based platform.

I finally received a few comments from actual implementors and a
number of Tested-by tags, which makes me think we may be on track for
3.17.

Individuals without access to documentation and/or hardware can still
review the code (it shares a lot of concepts with GICv2) and test it
on the freely available Foundation model (see
http://releases.linaro.org/latest/openembedded/aarch64/ for details on
how to use the Foundation model).

The code is also available at the following location:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/maz/arm-platforms.git kvm-arm64/gicv3

* From v4 [4]
  - Some cleanup and better error handling
  - World-switch optimisation (thanks to Will)
  - GICH->ICH namespace fixup (thanks to Jean-Philippe)
  - Moved __vgic_v3_get_ich_vtr_el2 to patch 19
  - Rebased on top of 3.16-rc1

* From v3 [3]
  - Fixed a lot of issues found by Christoffer (too many to report
    here, see the email thread)
  - New .sync_lr_elrsr backend
  - New probing method
  - New irqchip_in_kernel implementation
  - Checked full bisectability of the series (hopefully got it right
    this time...)
  - rebased on top of 3.15-rc5

* From v2 [2]
  - removed sharing of the xlate method with GICv2 (TI crossbar is now
    getting in the way...)
  - Switched to a tree domain to accomodate for the LPI space
  - Fixed more bisectability

* From the initial revision [1]
  - Some code sharing with GICv2
  - Barrier cleanup/clarification
  - Revised boot protocol update
  - Consistent use of the MPIDR access macros
  - Fixed a number of embarassing bugs
  - Fixed DT examples
  - Fixed bisectability of the series
