This follows the x86 xstate changes and implements a task_xstate slab
cache that is dynamically sized to match one of hard FP/soft FP/FPU-less.
This also tidies up and consolidates some of the SH-2A/SH-4 FPU
fragmentation. Now fpu state restorers are commonly defined, with the
init_fpu()/fpu_init() mess reworked to follow the x86 convention.
The fpu_init() register initialization has been replaced by xstate setup
followed by writing out to hardware via the standard restore path.
As init_fpu() now performs a slab allocation a secondary lighterweight
restorer is also introduced for the context switch.
In the future the DSP state will be rolled in here, too.
More work remains for math emulation and the SH-5 FPU, which presently
uses its own special (UP-only) interfaces.

Now that associative cache writes are no longer needed by the SH-4/SH-4A
cache flush code, associative write support can be explicitly disabled
for all SH-4A parts. This makes any associative write throw an exception,
as this behaviour can not be assumed to exist on future parts.

A number of small optimisations to FPU handling, in particular:
- move the task USEDFPU flag from the thread_info flags field (which
is accessed asynchronously to the thread) to a new status field,
which is only accessed by the thread itself. This allows locking to
be removed in most cases, or can be reduced to a preempt_lock().
This mimics the i386 behaviour.
- move the modification of regs->sr and thread_info->status flags out
of save_fpu() to __unlazy_fpu(). This gives the compiler a better
chance to optimise things, as well as making save_fpu() symmetrical
with restore_fpu() and init_fpu().
- implement prepare_to_copy(), so that when creating a thread, we can
unlazy the FPU prior to copying the thread data structures.
Also make sure that the FPU is disabled while in the kernel, in
particular while booting, and for newly created kernel threads,
In a very artificial benchmark, the execution time for 2500000
context switches was reduced from 50 to 45 seconds.

This code was added for some ancient SH-4 solution engines with peculiar
boot ROMs that did silly things to the UBC MSTP bits. None of these have
been in the wild for years, and these days the clock framework wraps up
the MSTP bits, meaning that the UBC code is one of the few interfaces
that is stomping MSTP bits underneath the clock framework. At this point
the risks far outweigh any benefit this code provided, so just kill it
off.

This implements EXPMASK initialization code for SH-4A parts, where it is
possible to disable compat features that will go away in newer cores.
Presently this includes disabling support for non-nop instructions in the
rte delay slot, as well as a sleep instruction being placed in a delay
slot (neither of which the kernel does any longer). As a result of this,
any future offenders will have illegal slot exceptions generated for
them.
Associative writes for the memory-mapped cache array are still left
enabled, until such a point that special cache operations for SH-4A are
provided to move off of the current (and rather dated) SH-4 versions.

Presently most of the 29-bit physical parts do P1/P2 segmentation
with a 1:1 cached/uncached mapping, jumping between the two to
control the caching behaviour. This provides the basic infrastructure
to maintain this behaviour on 32-bit physical parts that don't map
P1/P2 at all, using a shiny new linker section and corresponding
fixmap entry.

There was a very preliminary bunch of SMP code scattered around for the
SH7604 microcontrollers from way back when, and it has mostly suffered
bitrot since then. With the tree already having been slowly getting
prepped for SMP, this plugs in most of the remaining platform-independent
bits.

SH-2 can presently get in to some pretty bogus states, so

SH7780 has a speculative execution mode where it can speculatively
perform an instruction fetch for subroutine returns, this allows it
to be enabled. There are some various pitfalls associated with this
mode, so it's left as depending on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL and not

The boot cmdline is parsed in parse_early_param() and
parse_args(,unknown_bootoption).
And __setup() is used in obsolete_checksetup().
start_kernel()
-> parse_args()
-> unknown_bootoption()
-> obsolete_checksetup()
If __setup()'s callback (->setup_func()) returns 1 in
obsolete_checksetup(), obsolete_checksetup() thinks a parameter was
handled.
If ->setup_func() returns 0, obsolete_checksetup() tries other
->setup_func(). If all ->setup_func() that matched a parameter returns 0,
a parameter is seted to argv_init[].
Then, when runing /sbin/init or init=app, argv_init[] is passed to the app.
If the app doesn't ignore those arguments, it will warning and exit.
This patch fixes a wrong usage of it, however fixes obvious one only.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
