If the kernel unexpectedly takes a bad trap, it's convenient to
have it report the type of trap as part of the error. This gives
customers a bit more context before they call up customer support.

We now respond to MEM_ERROR traps (e.g. an atomic instruction to
non-cacheable memory) with a SIGBUS.
We also no longer generate a console crash message if a user
process die due to a SIGTRAP.

In certain circumstances we need to do a bunch of jump-and-link
instructions to fill the hardware return-address stack with nonzero values.

The kernel code was using some <asm> headers that included a mix
of hardware-specific information (typically found in Tilera <arch>
headers) and structures, enums, and function declarations supporting
the disassembly function of the tile-desc.c sources.
This change refactors that code so that a hardware-specific, but
OS- and application-agnostic header, is created: <arch/opcode.h>.
This header is then exported to userspace along with the other
<arch> headers and can be used to build userspace code; in particular,
it is used by glibc as part of implementing the backtrace() function.
The new header, together with a header that specifically describes
the disassembly code (<asm/tile-desc.h> with _32 and _64 variants),
replaces the old <asm/opcode-tile*.h> and <asm/opcode_constants*.h>
headers.
As part of this change, we are also renaming the 32-bit constants
from TILE_xxx to TILEPRO_xxx to better reflect the fact that they
are specific to the TILEPro architecture, and not to TILE-Gx
and any successor "tile" architecture chips.

This change adds support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace to tile.
Like x86 and sparc, by default it is set to "1", generating a one-line
printk whenever a user process crashes. By setting it to "2", we get
a much more complete userspace diagnostic at crash time, including
a user-space backtrace, register dump, and memory dump around the
address of the crash.
Some vestiges of the Tilera-internal version of this support are
removed with this patch (the show_crashinfo variable and the
arch_coredump_signal function). We retain a "crashinfo" boot parameter
which allows you to set the boot-time value of exception-trace.

This is not quite the complete support, since we're not yet shipping
intvec_64.S, but it is the support relevant to the set of files we are
currently shipping, and makes it easier to track changes between
our internal sources and our public GIT repository.

While not a port to KVM (yet), this change modifies the kernel
to be able to build either at PL1 or at PL2 with a suitable
config switch. Pushing up this change avoids handling branch
merge issues going forward with the KVM work.

This functionality was stubbed out until recently. Now we support our
normal backtracing API on TILE-Gx as well as on TILE64/TILEPro.
This change includes a tweak to the instruction encoding caused by
adding addxli for compat mode.

This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse"
and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since
things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the
codebase tend to get tedious to read. Rather than trying to tease
apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code
review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code:
- sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals.
- sparse: Fix __user annotations.
- sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int.
- sparse: removing functions not actually used.
- checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.;
also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code.
- checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs.
- checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments.
In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in
to this commit:
- Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised.
- Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate
some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI.
- Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.

This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips.
No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet.
This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level
low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are
shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic;
and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
