Merge tag 'arc-v3.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vgupta/arc

Pull ARC updates from Vineet Gupta:
 "Nothing too exciting here, just minor fixes/cleanup.  Only noteworthy
  ones are:

   - Moving cache disabling to early boot
   - ARC UART enabled only if earlyprintk setup in cmdline"

* tag 'arc-v3.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vgupta/arc:
  ARC: Disable caches in early boot if so configured
  ARC: [arcfpga] Early ARC UART to be only activated by cmdline
  ARC: [arcfpga] Get rid of legacy BVCI latency unit support
  ARC: remove duplicate header exports
  ARC: arc_local_timer_setup() need not pass own cpu id
  ARC: Fixed spelling errors within comments
  ARC: make start_thread() out-of-line
  ARC: fix mmuv2 warning
  ARC: [SMP] ISS SMP extension bitrot
