2012-01-17	MEM: Removing the default port peer from Python ports	Andreas Hansson
	In preparation for the introduction of Master and Slave ports, this patch removes the default port parameter in the Python port and thus forces the argument list of the Port to contain only the description. The drawback at this point is that the config port and dma port of PCI and DMA devices have to be connected explicitly. This is key for future diversification as the pio and config port are slaves, but the dma port is a master.
2012-01-17	MEM: Make the bus bridge unidirectional and fixed address range	Andreas Hansson
	This patch makes the bus bridge uni-directional and specialises the bus ports to be a master port and a slave port. This greatly simplifies the assumptions on both sides as either port only has to deal with requests or responses. The following patches introduce the notion of master and slave ports, and would not be possible without this split of responsibilities. In making the bridge unidirectional, the address range mechanism of the bridge is also changed. For the cases where communication is taking place both ways, an additional bridge is needed. This causes issues with the existing mechanism, as the busses cannot determine when to stop iterating the address updates from the two bridges. To avoid this issue, and also greatly simplify the specification, the bridge now has a fixed set of address ranges, specified at creation time.

2011-08-19	ARM: Add per-cpu local timers for ARM.	Geoffrey Blake
	Cortex-A9 processors can have a local timer and watchdog counter. It is enabled by default in Linux and up to this point we've had to disable them since a model wasn't available. This change allows a default MP ARM Linux configuration to boot.

2011-05-13	ARM: Better RealView/Versatile EB platform support.	Chander Sudanthi
	Add registers and components to better support the VersatileEB board. Made the MIDR and SYS_ID register parameters to ArmSystem and RealviewCtrl respectively.

2010-11-08	ARM: Keep the warnings to a minimum.	Ali Saidi
	These warnings still need to be addresses, but pages of them is counterproductive.
