The notifier hook mechanism in proc and cpuinfo is actually unnecessary
for LoongArch because it's not used anywhere.
It was originally added to the MIPS code in commit d6d3c9afaa ("MIPS:
MT: proc: Add support for printing VPE and TC ids"), and LoongArch then
inherited it.
But as the kernel code stands now, this notifier hook mechanism doesn't
really make sense for either LoongArch or MIPS.
In addition, the seq_file forward declaration needs to be moved to its
proper place, as only the show_ipi_list() function in smp.c requires it.

Probe ISA level, TLB, IOCSR information from CPUCFG to improve kernel
resilience to different core implementations.
BTW, IOCSR register definition appears to be a platform-specific spec
instead of an architecture spec, even for the Loongson CPUs there is no
guarantee that IOCSR will always present.
Thus it's dangerous to perform IOCSR probing without checking CPU type
and instruction availability.

Loongson-3A6000 and newer processors have hardware page table walker
(PTW) support. PTW can handle all fastpaths of TLBI/TLBL/TLBS/TLBM
exceptions by hardware, software only need to handle slowpaths (page
faults).
BTW, PTW doesn't append _PAGE_MODIFIED for page table entries, so we
change pmd_dirty() and pte_dirty() to also check _PAGE_DIRTY for the
"dirty" attribute.

Loongson-3A6000 has SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading) support, each
physical core has two logical cores (threads). This patch add SMT probe
and scheduler support via ACPI PPTT.
If SCHED_SMT enabled, Loongson-3A6000 is treated as 4 cores, 8 threads;
If SCHED_SMT disabled, Loongson-3A6000 is treated as 8 cores, 8 threads.
Remove smp_num_siblings to support HMP (Heterogeneous Multi-Processing).

Not all LoongArch processors support CRC32 instructions. This feature
is indicated by CPUCFG1.CRC32 (Bit25) but it is wrongly defined in the
previous versions of the ISA manual (and so does in loongarch.h). The
CRC32 feature is set unconditionally now, so fix it.
BTW, expose the CRC32 feature in /proc/cpuinfo.

LoongArch-based procesors have 4, 8 or 16 cores per package. This patch
adds multi-processor (SMP) support for LoongArch.

Add some misc common routines for LoongArch, including: asm-offsets
routines, futex functions, i/o memory access functions, frame-buffer
functions, procfs information display, etc.
