Hello,

now that 3.5 is about to come I invested the time to update the
beginning of the Cortex-M3 support.

Over all I rebased to v3.5-rc5 and addressed the comments by Russell.

It would be great to get these patches into next early after the merge
window for 3.6 closes to get them into 3.7. But I won't argue if they
made it into 3.6 ;-)
Now that v3.6-rc1 is out can these go into next for the next merge
window?
Last time I looked at the code, patch 3/3 was adding some fairly noisy debug
prints to various syscalls and pieces of signal handling. e.g.:

diff --git a/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c b/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c
index 76cbb05..ea207df 100644
--- a/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c
+++ b/arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c
@@ -102,6 +102,7 @@ int kernel_execve(const char *filename,
 	 * We were successful.  We won't be returning to our caller, but
 	 * instead to user space by manipulating the kernel stack.
 	 */
+	pr_info("we were successful\n");
 	asm(	"add	r0, %0, %1\n\t"
 		"mov	r1, %2\n\t"
 		"mov	r2, %3\n\t"

Can we drop these bits please?
