The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather
active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill
over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up.
Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant,
and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because
of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of
duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when
doing cross-architecture changes.

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).

Implement atomic logic ops -- atomic_{or,xor,and}.
These will replace the atomic_{set,clear}_mask functions that are
available on some archs.
TODO: use inline asm or at least asm macros to collapse the lot.

SMP kgdb runs into dead loop without this CSYNC when one core single
steps over get_core_lock_noflush and the other executes get_core_lock
as a slave node.

KGDB single step in SMP kernel may hang forever in flushinv without a
CSYNC ahead. This is because the core internal write buffers need to
be flushed before invalidating the data cache to make sure the insn
fetch is not out of sync.

Ironically, the atomic testset instruction cannot be interrupted else it
will produce incorrect results. So disable interrupts to help it out.

Bill Gatliff & David Brownell pointed out we were missing some
copyrights, and licensing terms in some of the files in
./arch/blackfin, so this fixes things, and cleans them up.
It also removes:
- verbose GPL text(refer to the top level ./COPYING file)
- file names (you are looking at the file)
- bug url (it's in the ./MAINTAINERS file)
- "or later" on GPL-2, when we did not have that right
It also allows some Blackfin-specific assembly files to be under a BSD
like license (for people to use them outside of Linux).

In this patch, we provide SMP extend to BF561 kernel code
