This series add a new uio driver for freescale 85xx platforms to
access the Cache-Sram form user level. This is extremely helpful
for the user-space applications that require high performance memory
accesses.
It fixes the compile errors and warning of the hardware level drivers
and implements the uio driver in uio_fsl_85xx_cache_sram.c.
Changes since v1:
* Addressed comments from Greg K-H
* Moved kfree(info->name) into uio_info_free_internal()
Changes since v2:
* Drop the patch that modifies Kconfigs of arch/powerpc/platforms
and modified the sequence of patches:
01:dropped, 02->03, 03->02, 04->01, 05->04
* Addressed comments from Greg, Scott and Christophe
* Use "uiomem->internal_addr" as if condition for sram memory free,
and memset the uiomem entry
* Modified of_match_table make the driver apart from Cache-Sram HW info
which belong to the HW level driver fsl_85xx_cache_sram to match
* Use roundup_pow_of_two for align calc(really learned a lot from Christophe)
* Remove useless clear block of uiomem entries.
* Use UIO_INFO_VER micro for info->version, and define it as
"devicetree,pseudo", meaning this is pseudo device and probed from
device tree configuration
* Select FSL_85XX_CACHE_SRAM rather than depends on it
