The J-Core cpu has, as an ISA extension, an atomic compare-and-swap
instruction cas.l which applications need to use (instead the imask or
gusa atomic models, which are fundamentally limited to UP) for
synchronization in order to be compatible with SMP systems. Provide a
hwcap flag so that it's possible to do runtime selection and support
both.

Up until now, the SH version of the sigcontext structure, and thus
mcontext_t/ucontext_t, varied depending on the cpu model the kernel
was built to run on. SH-4 (including SH-4A) and SH-2A used the form
with space for FPU registers, and everything else used a form that
omitted them.
From a userspace perspective, however, the structure layout must be
fixed for a given ABI. Traditionally glibc and uClibc used the form
with space for FPU registers only when __SH4__ (which implies FPU;
__SH4_NOFPU__ is the predefined macro for SH-4 but with no-FPU ABI)
was defined. As a result:
- SH-4 no-FPU programs never matched kernel sigcontext.
- SH-3 programs did not match kernel sigcontext if run on SH-4,
despite an apparent intent that they be compatible.
- SH-2 and SH-2A programs (using uClibc) did not match kernel
sigcontext if run on SH-2A.
The mismatch might seem inconsequential because it occurs at the end
of the sigcontext structure, but sigcontext is embedded as uc_mcontext
in ucontext_t, where it is followed by uc_sigmask, an important member
for signal handlers to have access to. In particular, access to
uc_sigmask is necessary for a correct implementation of thread
cancellation.
It would be possible to retain support for both sigcontext ABIs via a
personality mechanism, but since many configurations were already
broken and nobody noticed, and since there are very few if any users
of legacy no-FPU models anymore, I have opted to just remove the
variation and always include space for the FPU registers in
sigcontext. This was proposed and discussed on a thread "SH sigcontext
ABI is broken" cross-posted to linux-sh, libc-alpha, and musl libc
lists in June 2015, and no objections were raised.

According to arch/sh/kernel/syscalls_64.S and common sense, __NR_fgetxattr
has to be defined to 259, but it doesn't. Instead, it's defined to 269,
which is of course used by another syscall, __NR_sched_setaffinity in this
case.
This bug was found by strace test suite.

Commit: e676253b19 (serial/8250: Add
support for RS485 IOCTLs), adds support for RS485 ioctls for 825_core on
all the archs. Unfortunaltely the definition of TIOCSRS485 and
TIOCGRS485 was missing on the ioctls.h file

This patch defines new ioctl codes TIOCGPKT, TIOCGPTLCK,
TIOCGEXCL for fetching pty's packet mode and locking state,
and exclusive mode of tty.
[ No real handlers for the codes though, this will be
addressed in another patch for easier review and
bisectability ]

arch/sh/include/uapi/asm/hw_breakpoint.h was emitted by the UAPI disintegration
script as an empty file because the parent file had no UAPI stuff in it,
despite being marked with "header-y".
Unfortunately, the patch program deletes resultant empty files when applying a
kernel patch.
So just stick a comment in there as a placeholder.
