3.5.7.28 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Jim Quinlan <jim2101...@gmail.com> commit f86f55d3ad21b21b736bdeb29bee0f0937b77138 upstream. The BMIPS5000 (Zephyr) processor utilizes instruction speculation. A stale misprediction address in either the JTB or the CRS may trigger a prefetch inside a region that is currently being used by a DMA engine, which is not IO-coherent. This prefetch will fetch a line into the scache, and that line will soon become stale (ie wrong) during/after the DMA. Mayhem ensues. In dma-default.c, the r10000 is handled as a special case in the same way that we want to handle Zephyr. So we generalize the exception cases into a function, and include Zephyr as one of the processors that needs this special care.
