Vineet Gupta 07ba69a46c ARC: Reduce #ifdef'ery for unaligned access emulation
Emulation not enabled is treated as if the fixup failed, so no need for
special #ifdef checks.

Vineet Gupta 38a9ff6d24 ARC: Remove explicit passing around of ECR
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

Vineet Gupta 2e651ea159 ARC: Unaligned access emulation
ARC700 doesn't natively support unaligned access, but can be emulated
-Unaligned Access Exception
-Disassembly at the Fault address to find the exact insn (long/short)

Also per Arnd's comment, we runtime control it using 2 sysctl knobs:
* SYSCTL_ARCH_UNALIGN_ALLOW: Runtime enable/disble
* SYSCTL_ARCH_UNALIGN_NO_WARN: Warn on each emulation attempt
