a2494b9b5f sh: Kill off dcache writeback from copy_page().
Now that the cache purging is handled manually by all copy_page()
callers, we can kill off copy_page()'s on writeback. This optimizes the
non-aliasing case.

5d52013cbb sh: __copy_user function can corrupt the stack in case of exception
The __copy_user function can corrupt the stack in the case of a
non-trivial length of data, and either of the first two move instructions
cause an exception. This is because the fixup for these two instructions
is mapped to the no_pop case, but these instructions execute after the
stack is pushed.

This change creates an explicit NO_POP exception mapping macro, and uses
it for the two instructions executed in the trivial case where no stack
pushes occur.

5c0cbd74bb sh: Allow optimized clear/copy page routines to be used on SH-2.
Presently these are restricted to SH-3 and SH-4, so we reorder the
ifdefs a bit to let other parts use these also.
