The Tile architecture port was added by Chris Metcalf in 2010, and
maintained until early 2018 when he orphaned it due to his departure
from Mellanox, and nobody else stepped up to maintain it. The product
line is still around in the form of the BlueField SoC, but no longer
uses the Tile architecture.
There are also still products for sale with Tile-GX SoCs, notably the
Mikrotik CCR router family. The products all use old (linux-3.3) kernels
with lots of patches and won't be upgraded by their manufacturers. There
have been efforts to port both OpenWRT and Debian to these, but both
projects have stalled and are very unlikely to be continued in the future.
Given that we are reasonably sure that nobody is still using the port
with an upstream kernel any more, it seems better to remove it now while
the port is in a good shape than to let it bitrot for a few years first.

Implement FETCH-OP atomic primitives, these are very similar to the
existing OP-RETURN primitives we already have, except they return the
value of the atomic variable _before_ modification.
This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as
bitops (because it becomes impossible to reconstruct the state prior
to modification).

A recent discussion on LKML made it clear that the one-line
comment previously in atomic_add_return() was not clear enough:

This patch makes sure that atomic_{read,set}() are at least
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE().
We already had the 'requirement' that atomic_read() should use
ACCESS_ONCE(), and most archs had this, but a few were lacking.
All are now converted to use READ_ONCE().
And, by a symmetry and general paranoia argument, upgrade atomic_set()
to use WRITE_ONCE().

Implement atomic logic ops -- atomic_{or,xor,and}.
These will replace the atomic_{set,clear}_mask functions that are
available on some archs.

Implement atomic logic ops -- atomic_{or,xor,and}.
For tilegx, these are relatively straightforward; the architecture
provides atomic "or" and "and", both 32-bit and 64-bit. To support
xor we provide a loop using "cmpexch".
For the older 32-bit tilepro architecture, we have to extend
the set of low-level assembly routines to include 32-bit "and",
as well as all three 64-bit routines. Somewhat confusingly,
some 32-bit versions are already used by the bitops inlines, with
parameter types appropriate for bitops, so we have to do a bit of
casting to match "int" to "unsigned long".

The macrology in cmpxchg.h was designed to allow arbitrary pointer
and integer values to be passed through the routines. To support
cmpxchg() on 64-bit values on the 32-bit tilepro architecture, we
used the idiom "(typeof(val))(typeof(val-val))". This way, in the
"size 8" branch of the switch, when the underlying cmpxchg routine
returns a 64-bit quantity, we cast it first to a typeof(val-val)
quantity (i.e. size_t if "val" is a pointer) with no warnings about
casting between pointers and integers of different sizes, then cast
onwards to typeof(val), again with no warnings. If val is not a
pointer type, the additional cast is a no-op. We can't replace the
typeof(val-val) cast with (for example) unsigned long, since then if
"val" is really a 64-bit type, we cast away the high bits.
HOWEVER, this fails with current gcc (through 4.7 at least) if "val"
is a pointer to an incomplete type. Unfortunately gcc isn't smart
enough to realize that "val - val" will always be a size_t type
even if it's an incomplete type pointer.
Accordingly, I've reworked the way we handle the casting. We have
given up the ability to use cmpxchg() on 64-bit values on tilepro,
which is OK in the kernel since we should use cmpxchg64() explicitly
on such values anyway. As a result, I can just use simple "unsigned
long" casts internally.
As I reworked it, I realized it would be cleaner to move the
architecture-specific conditionals for cmpxchg and xchg out of the
atomic.h headers and into cmpxchg, and then use the cmpxchg() and
xchg() primitives directly in atomic.h and elsewhere. This allowed
the cmpxchg.h header to stand on its own without relying on the
implicit include of it that is performed by <asm/atomic.h>.
It also allowed collapsing the atomic_xchg/atomic_cmpxchg routines
from atomic_{32,64}.h into atomic.h.
I improved the tests that guard the allowed size of the arguments
to the routines to use a __compiletime_error() test. (By avoiding
the use of BUILD_BUG, I could include cmpxchg.h into bitops.h as
well and use the macros there, which is otherwise impossible due
to include order dependency issues.)
The tilepro _atomic_xxx internal methods were previously set up to
take atomic_t and atomic64_t arguments, which isn't as convenient
with the new model, so I modified them to take int or u64 arguments,
which is consistent with how they used the arguments internally
anyway, so provided some nice simplification there too.

These definitions use a ({}) construct to avoid some cases where
we were getting warnings about unused return values. We also
promote the definition to the common <asm/atomic.h>, since it applies
to both the 32- and 64-bit atomics.
In addition, define __HAVE_ARCH_CMPXCHG for TILE-Gx since it has
efficient direct atomic instructions.

This support was partially present in the existing code (look for
"__tilegx__" ifdefs) but with this change you can build a working
kernel using the TILE-Gx toolchain and ARCH=tilegx.
Most of these files are new, generally adding a foo_64.c file
where previously there was just a foo_32.c file.
The ARCH=tilegx directive redirects to arch/tile, not arch/tilegx,
using the existing SRCARCH mechanism in the top-level Makefile.
Changes to existing files:
- <asm/bitops.h> and <asm/bitops_32.h> changed to factor the
include of <asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h> in the common header.
- <asm/compat.h> and arch/tile/kernel/compat.c changed to remove
the "const" markers I had put on compat_sys_execve() when trying
to match some recent similar changes to the non-compat execve.
It turns out the compat version wasn't "upgraded" to use const.
- <asm/opcode-tile_64.h> and <asm/opcode_constants_64.h> were
previously included accidentally, with the 32-bit contents. Now
they have the proper 64-bit contents.
Finally, I had to hack the existing hacky drivers/input/input-compat.h
to add yet another "#ifdef" for INPUT_COMPAT_TEST (same as x86_64).
