Only a couple of arches (sh/x86) use fpu_counter in task_struct so it can
be moved out into ARCH specific thread_struct, reducing the size of
task_struct for other arches.

Historical prepare_to_copy() is mostly a no-op, duplicated for majority of
the architectures and the rest following the x86 model of flushing the extended
register state like fpu there.
Remove it and use the arch_dup_task_struct() instead.

prefetch()/prefetchw() are supposed to take a const void * instead of a
straight void *, which the build recently started complaining about, fix
them up.

GCC's __builtin_prefetch() was introduced a long time ago, all
supported GCC versions have it. So this patch is to use it for
implementing the prefetch on SH2A and SH4.
The current prefetch implementation is almost equivalent with
__builtin_prefetch.
The third parameter in the __builtin_prefetch is the locality
that it's not supported on SH architectures. It has been set
to three and it should be verified if it's suitable for SH2A
as well. I didn't test on this architecture.
The builtin usage should be more efficient that an __asm__
because less barriers, and because the compiler doesn't see the
inst as a "black box" allowing better code generation.
This has been already done on other architectures (see the commit:
0453fb3c52).
Many thanks to Christian Bruel <christain.bruel@st.com> for his
support on evaluate the impact of the gcc built-in on SH4 arch.

This follows the x86/ppc changes for kprobe-based event tracing on sh.

This hooks up the SET/GET_UNALIGN_CTL knobs cribbing the bulk of it from
the PPC and ia64 implementations. The thread flags happen to be the
logical inverse of what the global fault mode is set to, so this works
out pretty cleanly. By default the global fault mode is used, with tasks
now being able to override their own settings via prctl().

This updates the sh64 processor info with the sh32 changes in order to

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The fpu_init() register initialization has been replaced by xstate setup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.

This is the next big chunk of hw_breakpoint support. This decouples
the SH-4A support from the core and moves it out in to its own stub,
following many of the conventions established with the perf events
layering.
In addition to extending SH-4A support to encapsulate the remainder
of the UBC channels, clock framework support for handling the UBC
interface clock is added as well, allowing for dynamic clock gating.
This also fixes up a regression introduced by the SIGTRAP handling that
broke the ksym_tracer, to the extent that the current support works well
with all of the ksym_tracer/ptrace/kgdb. The kprobes singlestep code will
follow in turn.
With this in place, the remaining UBC variants (SH-2A and SH-4) can now
be trivially plugged in.

Conflict between FPU thread flag migration and debug
thread flag addition.
Conflicts:
arch/sh/include/asm/thread_info.h
arch/sh/include/asm/ubc.h
arch/sh/kernel/process_32.c
This adds preliminary support for the SH-4A UBC to the hw-breakpoints API.
Presently only a single channel is implemented, and the ptrace interface
still needs to be converted. This is the first step to cleaning up the
long-standing UBC mess, making the UBC more generally accessible, and
finally making it SMP safe.
An additional abstraction will be layered on top of this as with the perf
events code to permit the various CPU families to wire up support for
their own specific UBCs, as many variations exist.

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.

There were a number of issues with the DSP context save/restore code,
mostly left-over relics from when it was introduced on SH3-DSP with
little follow-up testing, resulting in things like task_pt_dspregs()
referencing incorrect state on the stack.
This follows the MIPS convention of tracking the DSP state in the
thread_struct and handling the state save/restore in switch_to() and
finish_arch_switch() respectively. The regset interface is also updated,
which allows us to finally be rid of task_pt_dspregs() and the special
cased task_pt_regs().
