585fa72493 [MIPS] Retire flush_icache_page from mm use.
On the 34K the redundant cache operations were causing excessive stalls
resulting in realtime code running on the second VPE missing its deadline.
For all other platforms this patch is just a significant performance
improvment as illustrated by below benchmark numbers.

Processor, Processes - times in microseconds - smaller is better

65f1f5a2c3 Don't copy SB1 cache error handler to uncached memory.
This may have made sense on a paranoid day with pass 1 BCM1250 processors
that were throwing cache error exception left and right for no good
reason.  On modern silicion that hardly makes sense and the code had
gotten just an obscurity ...

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
