Linux kernel source tree

Currently we have a lot of duplication in asm/r4kcache.h to handle manually unrolling loops of cache ops for various line sizes, and we have to explicitly handle the difference in cache op immediate width between MIPSr6 & earlier ISA revisions with further duplication. Introduce an unroll() macro in asm/unroll.h which expands to a switch statement which is used to call a function or expand a preprocessor macro a compile-time constant number of times in a row - effectively explicitly unrolling a loop. We make use of this here to remove the cache op duplication & will use it further in later patches. A nice side effect of this is that calculating the cache op offset immediate is now the compiler's responsibility, so we're no longer sensitive to the width change of that immediate in MIPSr6 & will be similarly agnostic to immediate width in any future supported ISA.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
