In case of devboards we really often disable bootloader and load
Linux image in memory via JTAG. Even if kernel tries to verify
uboot_tag and uboot_arg there is sill a chance that we treat some
garbage in registers as valid u-boot arguments in JTAG case.
E.g. it is enough to have '1' in r0 to treat any value in r2 as
a boot command line.
So check that magic number passed from u-boot is correct and drop
u-boot arguments otherwise. That helps to reduce the possibility
of using garbage as u-boot arguments in JTAG case.
We can safely check U-boot magic value (0x0) in linux passed via
r1 register as U-boot pass it from the beginning. So there is no
backward-compatibility issues.

As of today we enable unaligned access unconditionally on ARCv2.
Do this under a Kconfig option to allow disable it for test, benchmarking
etc. Also while at it
- Select HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
- Although gcc defaults to unaligned access (since GNU 2018.03), add the
right toggles for enabling or disabling as appropriate
- update bootlog to prints both HW feature status (exists, enabled/disabled)
and SW status (used / not used).
- wire up the relaxed memcpy for unaligned access

[vgupta: squashed patches, handle gcc -mno-unaligned-access quick]
After reworking U-boot args handling code and adding paranoid
arguments check we can eliminate CONFIG_ARC_UBOOT_SUPPORT and
enable uboot support unconditionally.
For JTAG case we can assume that core registers will come up
reset value of 0 or in worst case we rely on user passing
'-on=clear_regs' to Metaware debugger.

Handle U-boot arguments paranoidly:
* don't allow to pass unknown tag.
* try to use external device tree blob only if corresponding tag
(TAG_DTB) is set.
* don't check uboot_tag if kernel build with no ARC_UBOOT_SUPPORT.
NOTE:
If U-boot args are invalid we skip them and try to use embedded device
tree blob. We can't panic on invalid U-boot args as we really pass
invalid args due to bug in U-boot code.
This happens if we don't provide external DTB to U-boot and
don't set 'bootargs' U-boot environment variable (which is default
case at least for HSDK board) In that case we will pass
{r0 = 1 (bootargs in r2); r1 = 0; r2 = 0;} to linux which is invalid.
While I'm at it refactor U-boot arguments handling code.

considering gcc 7.3.1 onwards (GNU 2018.03) generates unaligned

[vgupta: rewrote changelog]
For run-on-reset SMP configs, non master cores call a routine which
waits until Master gives it a "go" signal (currently using a shared
mem flag). The same routine then jumps off the well known entry point of
all non Master cores i.e. @first_lines_of_secondary
This patch moves out the last part into one single place in early boot
code.
This is better in terms of absraction (the wait API only waits) and
returns, leaving out the "jump off to" part.
In actual implementation this requires some restructuring of the early
boot code as well as Master now jumps to BSS setup explicitly,
vs. falling thru into it before.
Technically this patch doesn't cause any functional change, it just
moves the ugly #ifdef'ry from assembly code to "C"

With prev fixes, all cores now start via common entry point @stext which
already calls EARLY_CPU_SETUP for all cores - so no need to invoke it
again

For Run-on-reset, non masters need to spin wait. For Halt-on-reset they
can jump to entry point directly.
Also while at it, made reset vector handler as "the" entry point for
kernel including host debugger based boot (which uses the ELF header
entry point)

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

* 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

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.

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]

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.

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.
