d4d9eab4ad tile: use proper .align directives on __ex_table sections
This may fix a reported bug where an R_TILEGX_64 in a module was not
pointing to an aligned address.

d52104b29a tile: revert change from <asm/atomic.h> to <linux/atomic.h> in asm files
The 32-bit TILEPro support uses some #defines in <asm/atomic_32.h>
for atomic support routines in assembly.  To make this more explicit,
I've turned those includes into includes of <asm/atomic_32.h>, which
should hopefully make it clear that they shouldn't be bombed into
<linux/atomic.h> in any cleanups.

60063497a9 atomic: use <linux/atomic.h>
This allows us to move duplicated code in <asm/atomic.h>
(atomic_inc_not_zero() for now) to <linux/atomic.h>

df29ccb6c0 arch/tile: allow nonatomic stores to interoperate with fast atomic syscalls
This semantic was already true for atomic operations within the kernel,
and this change makes it true for the fast atomic syscalls (__NR_cmpxchg
and __NR_atomic_update) as well.  Previously, user-space had to use
the fast atomic syscalls exclusively to update memory, since raw stores
could lose a race with the atomic update code even when the atomic update
hadn't actually modified the value.

With this change, we no longer write back the value to memory if it
hasn't changed.  This allows certain types of idioms in user space to
work as expected, e.g. "atomic exchange" to acquire a spinlock, followed
by a raw store of zero to release the lock.

5fb682b064 arch/tile: fix some comments and whitespace
This is a grab bag of changes with no actual change to generated code.
This includes whitespace and comment typos, plus a couple of stale
comments being removed.

2db0982781 arch/tile: Fix bug in support for atomic64_xx() ops.
This wasn't properly tested until the perf-event subsystem started
to get brought up under the tile architecture.

The bug caused bogus atomic64_cmpxchg() values to be returned,
among other things.

867e359b97 arch/tile: core support for Tilera 32-bit chips.
This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips.
No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet.

This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level
low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are
shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic;
and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
