The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather
active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill
over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up.
Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant,
and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because
of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of
duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when
doing cross-architecture changes.

Since the on-chip L1 regions are not cacheable, there is no point in
trying to flush/invalidate them. Plus, older Blackfin parts like to
trigger an exception (like BF533-0.3).

The external functions are named __raw_xxx, not arch_xxx, so rename the
prototypes to match reality. This fixes some simple build errors in the
bfin_ksyms.c code which exports these helpers to modules.

Avoid including unnecessary headers all the time as well as circular
includes with core requirements.

pages
Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases. The patch fixes this.
The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op. Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.
See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

Bill Gatliff & David Brownell pointed out we were missing some
copyrights, and licensing terms in some of the files in
./arch/blackfin, so this fixes things, and cleans them up.
It also removes:
- verbose GPL text(refer to the top level ./COPYING file)
- file names (you are looking at the file)
- bug url (it's in the ./MAINTAINERS file)
- "or later" on GPL-2, when we did not have that right
It also allows some Blackfin-specific assembly files to be under a BSD
like license (for people to use them outside of Linux).

The current cache options don't really represent the hardware features.
They end up setting different aspects of the hardware so that the end
result is to turn on/off the cache. Unfortunately, when we hit cache
problems with the hardware, it's difficult to test different settings to
root cause the problem. The current settings also don't cleanly allow for
different caching behaviors with different regions of memory.
So split the configure options such that they properly reflect the settings
that are applied to the hardware.

The KGDB code uses this when switching processors to make sure the icache
is in a valid state.

Make sure our bfin_addr_dcachable() function flags cached L2 SRAM properly
else memory easily goes unflushed when working with DMA.

Make sure we flush all data caches and their write buffers before flushing
icache, otherwise random edge cases could crop up where stale data is read
into icache from external memory. As fallout, punt the combined icache +
dcache flush function since we cannot safely do them back to back -- the
SSYNC is needed between the dcache flush and the icache flush.
