If copy_from_user is called with a large buffer (>= 128 bytes) and the
userspace buffer refers partially to unreadable memory, then it is
possible for Octeon's copy_from_user to report the wrong number of bytes
have been copied. In the case where the buffer size is an exact multiple
of 128 and the fault occurs in the last 64 bytes, copy_from_user will
report that all the bytes were copied successfully but leave some
garbage in the destination buffer.
The bug is in the main __copy_user_common loop in octeon-memcpy.S where
in the middle of the loop, src and dst are incremented by 128 bytes. The
l_exc_copy fault handler is used after this but that assumes that
"src < THREAD_BUADDR($28)". This is not the case if src has already been
incremented.
Fix by adding an extra fault handler which rewinds the src and dst
pointers 128 bytes before falling though to l_exc_copy.
Thanks to the pwritev test from the strace test suite for originally
highlighting this bug!

Now that EXPORT_SYMBOL can be used from assembly source, move the
EXPORT_SYMBOL invocations for the memcpy & memset functions & variants
thereof to be alongside their definitions.

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

The generic version seems to prefetch past the end of memory.

These are the rest of the new files needed to add OCTEON processor
support to the Linux kernel. Other than Makefile and Kconfig which
should be obvious, we have:
csrc-octeon.c -- Clock source driver for OCTEON.
dma-octeon.c -- Helper functions for mapping DMA memory.
flash_setup.c -- Register on-board flash with the MTD subsystem.
octeon-irq.c -- OCTEON interrupt controller managment.
octeon-memcpy.S -- Optimized memcpy() implementation.
serial.c -- Register 8250 platform driver and early console.
setup.c -- Early architecture initialization.
smp.c -- OCTEON SMP support.
octeon_switch.S -- Scheduler context switch for OCTEON.
c-octeon.c -- OCTEON cache controller support.
cex-oct.S -- OCTEON cache exception handler.
asm/mach-cavium-octeon/*.h -- Architecture include files.
