4368902bb9 ARC: Add support for ioremap_prot API
Implement ioremap_prot() to allow mapping IO memory with variable
protection
via TLB.

Implementing this allows the /dev/mem driver to use its generic access()
VMA callback, which in turn allows ptrace to examine data in memory
mapped regions mapped via /dev/mem, such as Arc DCCM.

The end result is that it is possible to examine values of variables
placed into DCCM in user space programs via GDB.

8c2f4a8dd0 ARC: UAPI Disintegrate arch/arc/include/asm
1. ./genfilelist.pl arch/arc/include/asm/

2. Create arch/arc/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild as follows

	+# UAPI Header export list
	+include include/uapi/asm-generic/Kbuild.asm

3. ./disintegrate-one.pl arch/arc/include/{,uapi/}asm/<above-list>

4. Edit arch/arc/include/asm/Kbuild to remove ref to
	asm-generic/Kbuild.asm

- To work around empty uapi/asm/setup.h added a placholder comment.
- Also a manual #ifdef __ASSEMBLY__ for a late ptrace change

3be80aaef8 ARC: Fundamental ARCH data-types/defines
* L1_CACHE_SHIFT
* PAGE_SIZE, PAGE_OFFSET
* struct pt_regs, struct user_regs_struct
* struct thread_struct, cpu_relax(), task_pt_regs(), start_thread(), ...
* struct thread_info, THREAD_SIZE, INIT_THREAD_INFO(), TIF_*, ...
* BUG()
* ELF_*
* Elf_*

To disallow user-space visibility into some of the core kernel data-types
such as struct pt_regs, #ifdef __KERNEL__ which also makes the UAPI header
spit (further patch in the series) to NOT export it to asm/uapi/ptrace.h
