This is the second attempt to sunset sun4m and sun4d.
See [1] for the inital attempt.
The sun4m and sun4d parts of the kernel have seen no real interest
for several years now. Last time a few people surfaced, but it was
either due to a personal project or for nostalgic reasons.
It is time to let go and drop the parts of sparc32 that in reality
are not in use.
LEON from Frontgrade Gaisler is the only real user of sparc32,
and this patchset reduces sparc32 to what is required by LEON.
The defconfig is first adapted to the one used by Gaisler.
Then the patches removes sun4m and sun4d specific
implementations such as small drivers, SMP support, IRQ suppor etc.
Removing sun4m and sun4d support allowed removal of the run time
patching of the code as well as a lot of assembler code.
The result is a much cleaner assembler code that is easier to
understand and thus maintain and extend.
Changes in v2:
- Rebased on top of Andreas' for-next branch
- Collected ack's
- Added patch to remove cpuid patching (Andreas)
- Run-time testing using qemu (Andreas, Mark Cave-Ayland)
