Jack Steiner 76148df19c gru: send cross partition interrupts using the gru
GRU Message queue instructions are used to deliver messages to other SSIs
within the numalink domain.  In most cases, a single GRU mesq instruction
will deliver both the message AND an interrupt to notify the other SSI
that a messsage is present.  In some cases, however, the interrupt must be
sent explicitly.

To improve resilency, the GRU driver should send these explicit interrupts
using the GRU to write the remote chipset register.  Current code sends
the interrupt using a cpu instruction to write the chipset register.

Jack Steiner 5658366ab5 gru: update GRU structures to match latest hardware spec
Add a few new definitions for chipset MMR field names.  This matches rev
0.7 of the hardware spec.

Jack Steiner 57ebb0342c gru: expicitly set instruction status to active
Explicitly set GRU instructions to "ACTIVE".  This eliminates the need for
barriers that would have been necessary to prevent reading the instruction
"status" field before the GRU had actually started the instruction.

Jack Steiner 67bf04a5c2 gru: fix prefetch and speculation bugs
Fix several bugs related to prefetch, ordering & speculation:

	- GRU cch_allocate() instruction causes cacheable memory
	  to be created. Add a barriers to prevent speculation
	  from prefetching data before it exists.
	- Add memory barriers before cache-flush instructions to ensure
	  that previously stored data is included in the line flushed to memory.

Robin Holt 289750d1f1 X86: uv: implement a gru_read_gpa kernel function
The BIOS has decided to store a pointer to the partition reserved page in
a scratch MMR.  The GRU is only able to read an MMR using a vload
instruction.  The gru_read_gpa() function will implemented.

Jack Steiner 270952a907 gru: update to rev 0.9 of gru spec
Update GRU driver to the latest version of the GRU spec. This consists
of minor updates:
	- changes & additions to error status bits
	- new restriction on handling of TLB misses while in FMM mode
	- new field (not used by software) in TFH

Jack Steiner cd1334f03f gru: bug fixes for GRU exception handling
Bug fixes for GRU exception handling.  Additional fields from the CBR must
be returned to the user to allow the user to correctly diagnose GRU
exceptions.

Handle endcase in TFH TLB miss handling.  Verify that TFH actually
indicates a pending exception.

Jack Steiner fe5bb6b00c sgi-gru: misc GRU cleanup
Misc trivial GRU drivers fixes:
	- fix long lines
	- eliminate extra whitespace
	- eliminate compiler warning
	- better validation of invalidate user parameters
	- bug fix for GRU TLB flush (not the cpu TLB flush)

These changes are all internal to the SGI GRU driver and have no effect
on the base kernel.

A few minor updates for the GRU driver.
	- documentation changes found in code reviews
	- changes to #ifdefs to make them recognized by "unifdef"
	  (used in simulator testing)
	- change GRU context load/unload to prefetch data
