Define HAVE_EXIT_THREAD for archs which want to do something in
exit_thread. For others, let's define exit_thread as an empty inline.
This is a cleanup before we change the prototype of exit_thread to
accept a task parameter.

flush_old_exec() has already done that. Back on 2011 a bunch of
instances like that had been kicked out, but that hadn't taken
care of then-out-of-tree architectures, obviously, and they served
as reinfection vector...

The old implementation assumed that SP at the time of __switch_to() is
right above pt_regs which is almost certainly not the case as there will
be some stack build up between entry into kernel and leading up to
__switch_to

pt_regs->event was set with artificial values to identify the low level
system event (syscall trap / breakpoint trap / exceptions / interrupts)
With r8 saving out of the way, the full word can be used to save real
ECR (Exception Cause Register) which helps idenify the event naturally,
including additional info such as cause code, param.
Only for Interrupts, where ECR is not applicable, do we resort to
synthetic non ECR values.
SAVE_ALL_TRAP/EXCEPTIONS can now be merged as they both use ECR with
different runtime values.
The ptrace helpers now use the sub-fields of ECR to distinguish the
events (e.g. vector 0x25 is trap, param 0 is syscall...)
The following benefits will follow:
(1) This centralizes the location of where ECR is saved and will allow
the cleanup of task->thread.cause_code ECR placeholder which is set
in non-uniform way. Then ARC VM code can safely rely on it being
there for purpose of finer grained VM_EXEC dcache flush (based on
exec fault: I-TLB Miss)
(2) Further, ECR being passed around from low level handlers as arg can
be eliminated as it is part of standard reg-file in pt_regs

(This is a VERY IMP change for low level interrupt/exception handling)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
* User 25 now saved in pt_regs->user_r25 (vs. tsk->thread_info.user_r25)
* This allows Low level interrupt code to unconditionally save r25
(vs. the prev version which would only do it for U->K transition).
Ofcourse for nested interrupts, only the pt_regs->user_r25 of
bottom-most frame is useful.
* simplifies the interrupt prologue/epilogue
* Needed for ARCv2 ISA code and done here to keep design similar with
ARCompact event handling
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
WHY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
With CONFIG_ARC_CURR_IN_REG, r25 is used to cache "current" task pointer
in kernel mode. So when entering kernel mode from User Mode
- user r25 is specially safe-kept (it being a callee reg is NOT part of
pt_regs which are saved by default on each interrupt/trap/exception)
- r25 loaded with current task pointer.
Further, if interrupt was taken in kernel mode, this is skipped since we
know that r25 already has valid "current" pointer.
With 2 level of interrupts in ARCompact ISA, detecting this is difficult
but still possible, since we could be in kernel mode but r25 not already saved
(in fact the stack itself might not have been switched).
A. User mode
B. L1 IRQ taken
C. L2 IRQ taken (while on 1st line of L1 ISR)
So in #C, although in kernel mode, r25 not saved (infact SP not
switched at all)
Given that ARcompact has manual stack switching, we could use a bit of
trickey - The low level code would make sure that SP is only set to kernel
mode value at the very end (after saving r25). So a non kernel mode SP,
even if in kernel mode, meant r25 was NOT saved.
The same paradigm won't work in ARCv2 ISA since SP is auto-switched so
it's setting can't be delayed/constrained.

* use artificial PUSH/POP contructs for CORE Reg save/restore to stack
* use artificial PUSHAX/POPAX contructs for Auxiliary Space regs
* macro'ize multiple copies of callee-reg-save/restore (SAVE_R13_TO_R24)
* use BIC insn for inverse-and operation
Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
This is trickier than prev two:
* context switching code saves kernel mode callee regs in the format of
struct callee_regs thus needs adjustment. This also reduces the height
of topmost kernel stack frame by 1 word.
* Since kernel stack unwinder is sensitive to height of topmost kernel
stack frame, that needs a word of adjustment too.
ptrace needs a bit of updating since pt_regs now diverges from
user_regs_struct.

Historically, pt_regs would end at offset of 1 word from end of stack
page.
----------------- -> START of page (task->stack)
| |
| thread_info |
-----------------
| |
^ ~ ~
| ~ ~
| | |
| | | <---- pt_regs used to END here
-----------------
| 1 word GUTTER |
----------------- -> End of page (START of kernel stack)
This required special "one-off" considerations in low level code.
The root cause is very likely assumption of "empty" SP by the original
ARC kernel hackers, despite ARC700 always been "full" SP.
So finally RIP one word gutter !

The generic idle loop implements all functionality. Aside of that it
allows arc to implement the tsk_is_polling() functionality correctly,
despite the patently (now gone) comment in the original arc cpu_idle()
function:
/* Since we SLEEP in idle loop, TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG can't be set */
