[RFC 0/7] ARM: vf610m4: Add Vybrid Cortex-M4 support

[Stefan Agner]

This adds Vybrid SoC support for the !MMU Cortex-M4 core. The patchset is
its current state is more a collection of hacks than anything mergabel,
advice and ideas how to beat it in good shape are welcome. I added some
thoughts as comments in the individual patches.

I wrote also some more info about Vybrid Cortex-M4 support in my blog
post:

One thing I noticed that when I move the xipImage below the DRAM base
address, the kernel freezes:
...
Mount-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes)
Mountpoint-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes)
[freeze]

I think it happens when the scheduler gets started. Any idea what could
go wrong here?
