Pull second set of ARC changes from Vineet Gupta:
- Support for Perf from Mischa
- Enabling GPIO/Pinctrl drivers for Abilis TB10x platform
- New defconfig for buildroot
* tag 'arc-v3.13-rc1-part2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vgupta/arc:
ARC: [plat-arcfpga] Add defconfig without initramfs location
ARC: perf: ARC 700 PMU doesn't support sampling events
ARC: Add documentation on DT binding for ARC700 PMU
ARC: Add perf support for ARC700 cores
ARC: [TB10x] Updates for GPIO and pinctrl
This is useful if you want to build a kernel without a ramfs, or
if you want to test the kernel build without having an initramfs
available at the hardcoded location.

Pull second set of ARC architecture updates from Vineet Gupta:
"Couple of Platform updates (Device Tree files primarily) given that
the corresponding drivers (net/ethernet/arc/*, irqctl/irq-tb10x.c)
have now been merged into your tree.
Ideally these shd have been part of same submissions, oh well..."
* tag 'arc-v3.11-rc1-part2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vgupta/arc:
ARC: [TB10x] Updates for irqchip driver
ARC: [plat-arcfpga] Enable arc_emac for ARCAngle4 Board
* DWARF unwinder related
+ Force DWARF2 compliant .debug_frame (gcc 4.8 defaults to DWARF4
which kernel unwinder can't grok).
+ Discard the additional .eh_frame generated
+ Discard the dwarf4 debug info generated by -gdwarf-2 for normal
no debug case
* 4.8 already uses arc600 multilibs for -mno-mpy
* switch to using uclibc compiler (to get -mmedium-calls and -mno-sdata)
and also since buildroot can only use 1 toolchain

This adds support for an ARC Virtual Platform. This platform is based on the
System C standard promoted by the OSCI (Open System C Initiative) and uses
nSIM to simulate the ARC CPU core itself.
Users can build a virtual SoC by combining System C models of peripherals
and CPU cores.

Infrastructure required to make the Linux kernel compile and boot on the
Abilis Systems TB10x series of SOCs based on ARC700 CPUs:
- Kmake related files (Kconfig, Makefile, tb10x_defconfig)
- TB10x platform initialisation
