8ff3afc159 ARC: Enable fatal signals on boot for dev platforms
It's very convenient to have fatal signals enabled on developemnt
platform as this allows to catch problems that happen early in
user-space (like crashing init or dynamic loader).

Otherwise we may either enable it later from alive taregt console
by "echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/print-fatal-signals" but:
 1. We might be unfortunate enough to not reach working console
 2. Forget to enable fatal signals and miss something interesting

Given we're talking about development platforms here it shouldn't
be a problem if a bit more data gets printed to debug console.

Moreover this makes behavior of all our dev platforms predictable
as today some platforms already have it enabled and some don't -
which is way too inconvenient.

7badf6fefc ARC: axs10x: really enable ARC PGU
Up until now we had ARC PGU not enabled in axs10x defconfigs trying
to not bloat kernel image again with yet another drivers and subsystems.

This change configures ARC PGU (as well as DRM bits it depends on)
to be built as a module and so those who need LCD screen to work on
axs10x may bundle built .ko files in their target's file-system with
help of the following command on host:
------------->8-------------
make INSTALL_MOD_PATH=_path_to_target_fs_ modules_install
------------->8-------------

and later on target with commands as simple as:
------------->8-------------
modprobe adv7511.ko
modprobe arcpgu.ko
------------->8-------------
get LCD working.

618a9cd06d arc: Add "model" properly in device tree description of all boards
As it was discussed quite some time ago (see
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/11/5/862) it's a good practice to add
"model" property in .dts. Moreover as per ePAPR "model" property is
required and should look like "manufacturer,model" so we do here.

8d0d56ba24 ARC: [axs101] support early 8250 uart
Earlycon calculates UART clock as "BASE_BAUD * 16". In case of ARC
"BASE_BAUD" is calculated dynamically in runtime, basically it is an
alias to arc_early_base_baud(), which in turn just does
"arc_base_baud/16".

8250 UART on AXS/SDP board uses 33.3MHz clock source which is set in
"arc_base_baud" with this change.

Additional compatibility string "snps,arc-sdp" is introduced as well
because there're different flavours of AXS boards but they all share the
same motherboard and so it's possible to re-use the same code for
motherbord even if CPU daughterboard changes.

556cc1c5f5 ARC: [axs101] Add support for AXS101 SDP (software development platform)
The AXS10x platforms consist of a mainboard with peripherals,
on which several daughter cards can be placed. The daughter cards
typically contain a CPU and memory.
