On MP configurations it's highly dubious what this code will actually
affect since blasting away cachelines may or may not do the right
thing wrt. cache coherency.

-msym32 and previously the strategy to tell the compiler to generate
64-bit code but the assembler to put it into 32-bit ELF was initially
a hack to get around the lack of proper 64-bit binutils support and
later turned into a neat optimization with significant code size
savings. But it's really just an optimization so there is nothing
wrong with just dropping the option (and whatever else goes along with
it, I forgot all the nasty details) on the floor if due to a vintage
compiler it can't be suported.

The kernel currently only supports broadcasting of the timer interrupt
from a single timer, not multicasting into two multicast groups of
processors. So the implemented mechanism for SMTC works by broadcasting
the cp0 compare interrupt on VPE 0 and ignoring it on any additional VPEs.

This replaces the MIPS-specific to_tm function with the generic
rtc_time_to_tm function. The big difference between the two functions is
that rtc_time_to_tm uses epoch 70 while to_tm uses 1970, so the result of
rtc_time_to_tm needs to be fixed up.

Hard to follow who is pointing what to where and why so it's simply getting
in the way of the time code renovation.

It was getting a little big, ugly and a primary source for merge conflicts.
Also the old method was a bit too forgiving in that the workaround did
default to off, so now there is an explicit #error forcing platform
maintainers to think if they should enable a workaround for a particular
platform.

Add LED support to the WGT634U machine. It uses the new gpio-led
driver and a platform driver for the pin definitions.

It may not be perfect yet but the SB1 code is badly borken and has
horrible performance issues.
Downside: This seriously breaks support for pass 1 parts of the BCM1250
where indexed cacheops don't work quite reliable but I seem to be the
last one on the planet with a pass 1 part anyway.

Note that the BCM4710 does not support the wait instruction, this
is not a mistake in the code.
It originally comes from the OpenWrt patches.

This patch renames it for 3 reasons:
- "CONFIG" pattern is used by Kconfig. Now this macro is
no more defined by Kconfig but by Kbuild itself make this
clear by translating "CONFIG" into "KBUILD".
- "ELF32" word is improper because it is irrelevant to ELF
format and it makes confusion with CONFIG_BOOT_ELF32. So
translate it with SYM32.
- Add "64BIT" part to make clear that this macro implies a
64 bits kernel.

We do not rely on user anymore to setup this config correctly.
Instead we make our choice depending on the load address.
If we want to force Kbuild to use ELF64 format whatever
the load address we can still do:
$ make BUILD_ELF32=no
