Chris Metcalf f133ecca9c arch/tile: more /proc and /sys file support
This change introduces a few of the less controversial /proc and
/proc/sys interfaces for tile, along with sysfs attributes for
various things that were originally proposed as /proc/tile files.
It also adjusts the "hardwall" proc API.

Arnd Bergmann reviewed the initial arch/tile submission, which
included a complete set of all the /proc/tile and /proc/sys/tile
knobs that we had added in a somewhat ad hoc way during initial
development, and provided feedback on where most of them should go.

One knob turned out to be similar enough to the existing
/proc/sys/debug/exception-trace that it was re-implemented to use
that model instead.

Another knob was /proc/tile/grid, which reported the "grid" dimensions
of a tile chip (e.g. 8x8 processors = 64-core chip).  Arnd suggested
looking at sysfs for that, so this change moves that information
to a pair of sysfs attributes (chip_width and chip_height) in the
/sys/devices/system/cpu directory.  We also put the "chip_serial"
and "chip_revision" information from our old /proc/tile/board file
as attributes in /sys/devices/system/cpu.

Other information collected via hypervisor APIs is now placed in
/sys/hypervisor.  We create a /sys/hypervisor/type file (holding the
constant string "tilera") to be parallel with the Xen use of
/sys/hypervisor/type holding "xen".  We create three top-level files,
"version" (the hypervisor's own version), "config_version" (the
version of the configuration file), and "hvconfig" (the contents of
the configuration file).  The remaining information from our old
/proc/tile/board and /proc/tile/switch files becomes an attribute
group appearing under /sys/hypervisor/board/.

Finally, after some feedback from Arnd Bergmann for the previous
version of this patch, the /proc/tile/hardwall file is split up into
two conceptual parts.  First, a directory /proc/tile/hardwall/ which
contains one file per active hardwall, each file named after the
hardwall's ID and holding a cpulist that says which cpus are enclosed by
the hardwall.  Second, a /proc/PID file "hardwall" that is either
empty (for non-hardwall-using processes) or contains the hardwall ID.

Finally, this change pushes the /proc/sys/tile/unaligned_fixup/
directory, with knobs controlling the kernel code for handling the
fixup of unaligned exceptions.
