71a7d15562 Blackfin arch: fix bug - kernel boot fails when Spinlock and rw-lock debugging enabled
Initialize the lock of bad_irq_desc properly.
The content of irq_desc array is replaced by bad_irq_desc in blackfin
arch irqchip init code. So, do it properly as common irq init code.

f0b5d12f2b Blackfin arch: allow people to select the feature that is unavailable to the kernel
- allow people to select the feature that is unavailable to the kernel: NMI, JTAG, or CYCLES.
 - change default NMI handler to simply dump hardware trace buffer.
 - remove default NMI handler completely as calling into kernel code is not safe
   move example handler to wiki so people dont haphazardly copy and paste this stuff thinking its safe

518039bc24 Blackfin arch: Add ability to expend the hardware trace buffer
Add ability to expend the hardware trace buffer via a configurable
software buffer - so you can have lots of history when a crash occurs.

The interesting way we do printk in the traps.c confusese the checking
script

1394f03221 blackfin architecture
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix!  Tinyboards.

The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc.  (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000.  Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices.  The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set.  It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.

The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf

The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibc

This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/

We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
be found at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel
