Reconstruct vdso framework to support future vsyscall,
vgettimeofday features. These are very important features to reduce
system calls into the kernel for performance improvement.

The implementation of show_stack will panic with wrong fp:
addr = *fp++;
because the fp isn't checked properly.
The current implementations of show_stack, wchan and stack_trace
haven't been designed properly, so just deprecate them.
This patch is a reference to riscv's way, all codes are modified from
arm's. The patch is passed with:
- cat /proc/<pid>/stack
- cat /proc/<pid>/wchan
- echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger

This patch enable kprobes, kretprobes, ftrace interface. It utilized
software breakpoint and single step debug exceptions, instructions
simulation on csky.
We use USR_BKPT replace origin instruction, and the kprobe handler
prepares an excutable memory slot for out-of-line execution with a
copy of the original instruction being probed. Most of instructions
could be executed by single-step, but some instructions need origin
pc value to execute and we need software simulate these instructions.

This patch implements the perf registers sampling and validation API
for csky arch. The valid registers and their register ID are defined in
perf_regs.h. Perf tool can backtrace in userspace with unwind library
and the registers/user stack dump support.

This patch add support for perf callchain sampling on csky platform.
As fp is used to unwind the stack, the program being sampled and the
C library need to be compiled with -mbacktrace for user callchains,
kernel callchains require CONFIG_STACKTRACE = y.
Changelog:
- Coding convention with Christoph's advice for riscv's.

When gcc with -pg, it'll add _mcount stub in every function. We need
implement the _mcount in kernel and ftrace depends on stackstrace.
To do: call-graph, dynamic ftrace

The gcc option "-mbacktrace" will push fp(r8),lr into stack and we could
unwind the stack with:
fp = *fp
lr = (unsigned int *)fp[1]
