OK dropped that part, updated patch below. Maybe the VFPv3
code can be fixed to boot on earlier hardware too.

So I guess ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT should be only used for alignment, and
not for for cache operations?

If so, then what have in arch/arm/plat-omap/iommu.c seems buggy:

static void flush_iopgd_range(u32 *first, u32 *last)
{
        /* FIXME: L2 cache should be taken care of if it exists */
        do {
                asm("mcr        p15, 0, %0, c7, c10, 1 @ flush_pgd"
                    : : "r" (first));
                first += L1_CACHE_BYTES / sizeof(*first);
        } while (first <= last);
}

It seems that this code should use the real cache line size instead to
avoid every other line not to flush if ARM_L1_CACHE_SHIFT is set larger
than it is.

Tony

Subject: [PATCH] arm: Allow mounting root on omaps with CPU_V6 and CPU_V7

To mount root, we need to disable VFPv3 and HAS_TLS_REG.

Otherwise we'll get something like this for CPUv3:

Freeing init memory: 184K
Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1]
last sysfs file:
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0    Not tainted  (2.6.33-rc8-07824-gf2e1d91-dirty #36)
PC is at no_old_VFP_process+0x8/0x3c
LR is at __und_usr_unknown+0x0/0x14
...

Or the system just hangs if HAS_TLS_REG is set.
