435abb6daf ARC: RIP @running_on_hw
* No active users of this flag anymore

* flag itself was no longer usable with new simualtor which acts just like
  hardware, not providing the special chip-id = 0xffff which good old
  ISS used to do.

c3441edd2d ARC: [SMP] General Fixes
-Pass the expected arg to non-boot park'ing routine
 (It worked so far because existing SMP backends don't use the arg)

-CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT warning

59ed941353 ARC: [cmdline] uboot cmdline handling rework
* Moved cmdline copy from asm to "C" - allows for more robust checking
  of pointer validity etc.

* Remove the Kconfig option to do so, base it on a runtime value passed
  by u-boot

8f5d221b06 arc: remove '__init' for first_lines_of_secondary()
first_lines_of_secondary() is a '__init' function, but it may be called
by __cpu_up() by _cpu_up() by cpu_up() which is a normal export symbol
function. So recommend to remove '__init'.

The related warning (with allmodconfig):

    MODPOST vmlinux.o
  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x315c): Section mismatch in reference from the function __cpu_up() to the function .init.text:first_lines_of_secondary()
  The function __cpu_up() references
  the function __init first_lines_of_secondary().
  This is often because __cpu_up lacks a __init
  annotation or the annotation of first_lines_of_secondary is wrong.

c3567f8a35 ARC: SMP failed to boot due to missing IVT setup
Commit 05b016ecf5 "ARC: Setup Vector Table Base in early boot" moved
the Interrupt vector Table setup out of arc_init_IRQ() which is called
for all CPUs, to entry point of boot cpu only, breaking booting of others.

Fix by adding the same to entry point of non-boot CPUs too.

read_arc_build_cfg_regs() printing IVT Base Register didn't help the
casue since it prints a synthetic value if zero which is totally bogus,
so fix that to print the exact Register.

[vgupta: Remove the now stale comment from header of arc_init_IRQ and
also added the commentary for halt-on-reset]

05b016ecf5 ARC: Setup Vector Table Base in early boot
Otherwise early boot exceptions such as instructions errors due to
configuration mismatch between kernel and hardware go off to la-la land,
as opposed to hitting the handler and panic()'ing properly.

41195d236e ARC: SMP support
ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions.

ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are
are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This
includes:
-Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI)
-Cache coherency
-load-locked/store-conditional
...

The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP
because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit
of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler
prologues to keep them re-entrant.

Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to
SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help
with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012).

Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so
multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is
addressed in subsequent patches within this series.
