never actually ran on these chips (other than using SA1 support in an
emulator to do the early porting to FreeBSD long long ago). The clutter
and complexity of some of this code keeps getting in the way of other
maintenance, so it's time to go.
we've been using was actually just spinning due to ARM having redefined
the old 'wait for interrupt' operation via the system coprocessor as a nop
and replacing it with a WFI instruction.
implementations for each of the chips we support. Most chips up through
armv6 can use the armv4 implementation which has a single coprocessor
opcode for this operation. The rather more complex armv7 implementation
comes from netbsd.
Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 and Snapdragon 400/600/800 SoCs and has architectural
similarities to ARM Cortex-A15. As for development boards IFC6400 series embedded
boards from Inforce Computing uses Snapdragon S4 Pro/APQ8064.

Sheeva PJ4Bv6 - based chips were only prototypes for V7 class Armada
SoC family. Current in-tree support for PJ4Bv6 will not work and also
there should be no platforms in active use that would incorporate that
CPU revision.
interfere with structure fields of the same name in drivers, like
the intr_disable function pointer in struct cphy_ops in cxgb(4).
Instead define intr_disable and intr_restore as inline functions.
With intr_disable() an inline function, the I32_bit and F32_bit
macros now need to be visible in MI code and given the rather
poor names, this is not at all good. Define ARM_CPSR_F32 and
ARM_CPSR_I32 and use that instead of F32_bit and I32_bit (resp)
for now.
Cummulative patch of changes that are not vendor-specific:
- ARMv6 and ARMv7 architecture support
- ARM SMP support
- VFP/Neon support
- ARM Generic Interrupt Controller driver
- Simplification of startup code for all platforms
previously know by StarSemi STR9104.
Tested by the submitter on an Emprex NSD-100 board.

- The contents of 'feroceon_cpufuncs' dispatch table was really dedicated for the
new Sheeva CPU (in 88F6xxx and MV-78xxx SOCs), and NOT Feroceon.
- Feroceon CPU (in 88F5xxx SOCs) appears as a regular ARM926EJ-S core and does
not require dedicated routines.
This will be accompanied by a file rename commit.
It only supports sa1110 (on simics) right now, but xscale support should come
soon.

Most of this comes from NetBSD.
