This adds support for emitting PLTs at module load time for relative branches that are out of range. This is a prerequisite for KASLR, which may place the kernel and the modules anywhere in the vmalloc area, making it more likely that branch target offsets exceed the maximum range of +/- 128 MB. In this version, I removed the distinction between relocations against .init executable sections and ordinary executable sections. The reason is that it is hardly worth the trouble, given that .init.text usually does not contain that many far branches, and this version now only reserves PLT entry space for jump and call relocations against undefined symbols (since symbols defined in the same module can be assumed to be within +/- 128 MB) For example, the mac80211.ko module (which is fairly sizable at ~400 KB) built with -mcmodel=large gives the following relocation counts: relocs branches unique !local .text 3925 3347 518 219 .init.text 11 8 7 1 .exit.text 4 4 4 1 .text.unlikely 81 67 36 17 ('unique' means branches to unique type/symbol/addend combos, of which !local is the subset referring to undefined symbols) IOW, we are only emitting a single PLT entry for the .init sections, and we are better off just adding it to the core PLT section instead.

This patch adds support for loadable modules. Loadable modules are loaded 64MB below the kernel image due to branch relocation restrictions (see Documentation/arm64/memory.txt).

This patch contains the initialisation of the memory blocks, MMU attributes and the memory map. Only five memory types are defined: Device nGnRnE (equivalent to Strongly Ordered), Device nGnRE (classic Device memory), Device GRE, Normal Non-cacheable and Normal Cacheable. Cache policies are supported via the memory attributes register (MAIR_EL1) and only affect the Normal Cacheable mappings. This patch also adds the SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP initialisation.

The virtual memory layout is described in Documentation/arm64/memory.txt. This patch adds the MMU definitions for the 4KB and 64KB translation table configurations. The SECTION_SIZE is 2MB with 4KB page and 512MB with 64KB page configuration. PHYS_OFFSET is calculated at run-time and stored in a variable (no run-time code patching at this stage). On the current implementation, both user and kernel address spaces are 512G (39-bit) each with a maximum of 256G for the RAM linear mapping. Linux uses 3 levels of translation tables with the 4K page configuration and 2 levels with the 64K configuration. Extending the memory space beyond 39-bit with the 4K pages or 42-bit with 64K pages requires an additional level of translation tables. The SPARSEMEM configuration is global to all AArch64 platforms and allows for 1GB sections with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP enabled by default.

The patch adds the kernel booting and the initial setup code. Documentation/arm64/booting.txt describes the booting protocol on the AArch64 Linux kernel.

Add support for the Infineon TLE62x0 series of low-side driver chips, such as the TLE6220 or TLE6230. These can be viewed as output GPIOs specialized for power switching applications. The driver provides a userspace interface to those GPIOs, and to the switch status they provide.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
