Highlights of changes:
-Continuation of ARC MM changes from 3.10 including
zero page optimization;
Setting pagecache pages dirty by default;
Non executable stack by default;
Reducing dcache flushes for aliasing VIPT config
-Long overdue rework of pt_regs machinery - removing the unused word gutters
and adding ECR register to baseline (helps cleanup lot of low level code)
-Support for ARC gcc 4.8
-Few other preventive fixes, cosmetics, usage of Kconfig helper..
The diffstat is larger than normal primarily because of arcregs.h header split
as well as beautification of macros in entry.h

With ECR now part of pt_regs
* No need to propagate from lowest asm handlers as arg
* No need to save it in tsk->thread.cause_code
* Avoid bit chopping to access the bit-fields
More code consolidation, cleanup

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

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms. This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.
show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.
* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.
alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
um, xtensa
* Already prints debug info. Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
The printed information is superset of what used to be there.
arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86
* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
along with generic debug info. Heiko and Martin think that the
arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
Converted to use the generic version.
Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.
An example BUG() dump follows.
