GRU Driver V3: fixes to resolve code review comments
Fixes problems identified in a code review: - add comment with high level dscription of the GRU - prepend "gru_" to all global names - delete unused function - couple of trivial bug fixes [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Signed-off-by: Jack Steiner <steiner@sgi.com> Cc: Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

/*
+ * GRU Chiplet:
+ * The GRU is a user addressible memory accelerator. It provides
+ * several forms of load, store, memset, bcopy instructions. In addition, it
+ * contains special instructions for AMOs, sending messages to message
+ * queues, etc.
+ *
+ * The GRU is an integral part of the node controller. It connects
+ * directly to the cpu socket. In its current implementation, there are 2
+ * GRU chiplets in the node controller on each blade (~node).
+ *
+ * The entire GRU memory space is fully coherent and cacheable by the cpus.
+ *
+ * Each GRU chiplet has a physical memory map that looks like the following:

+ * | context 0 |
+ * +-----------------+
+ *
+ * Each of the "contexts" is a chunk of memory that can be mmaped into user
+ * space. The context consists of 2 parts:
+ *
+ * - an instruction space that can be directly accessed by the user
+ * to issue GRU instructions and to check instruction status.
+ *
+ * - a data area that acts as normal RAM.
+ *
+ * User instructions contain virtual addresses of data to be accessed by the
+ * GRU. The GRU contains a TLB that is used to convert these user virtual
+ * addresses to physical addresses.
+ *
+ * The "system control" area of the GRU chiplet is used by the kernel driver
+ * to manage user contexts and to perform functions such as TLB dropin and
+ * purging.
+ *
+ * One context may be reserved for the kernel and used for cross-partition
+ * communication. The GRU will also be used to asynchronously zero out
+ * large blocks of memory (not currently implemented).
