Chris Metcalf a78c942df6 arch/tile: parameterize system PLs to support KVM port
While not a port to KVM (yet), this change modifies the kernel
to be able to build either at PL1 or at PL2 with a suitable
config switch.  Pushing up this change avoids handling branch
merge issues going forward with the KVM work.

Chris Metcalf bf65e440e8 arch/tile: add Tilera's <arch/sim.h> header as an open-source header
This change adds one of the Tilera standard <arch> headers to the set
of headers shipped with Linux.  The <arch/sim.h> header provides
methods for programmatically interacting with the Tilera simulator.

The current <arch/sim.h> provides inline assembly for the _sim_syscall
function, so the declaration and definition previously provided
manually in Linux are no longer needed.  We now use the standard
sim_validate_lines_evicted() method from <arch/sim.h> rather than
rolling our own direct call to sim_syscall().

Chris Metcalf 0707ad30d1 arch/tile: Miscellaneous cleanup changes.
This commit is primarily changes caused by reviewing "sparse"
and "checkpatch" output on our sources, so is somewhat noisy, since
things like "printk() -> pr_err()" (or whatever) throughout the
codebase tend to get tedious to read.  Rather than trying to tease
apart precisely which things changed due to which type of code
review, this commit includes various cleanups in the code:

- sparse: Add declarations in headers for globals.
- sparse: Fix __user annotations.
- sparse: Using gfp_t consistently instead of int.
- sparse: removing functions not actually used.
- checkpatch: Clean up printk() warnings by using pr_info(), etc.;
  also avoid partial-line printks except in bootup code.
  - checkpatch: Use exposed structs rather than typedefs.
  - checkpatch: Change some C99 comments to C89 comments.

In addition, a couple of minor other changes are rolled in
to this commit:

- Add support for a "raise" instruction to cause SIGFPE, etc., to be raised.
- Remove some compat code that is unnecessary when we fully eliminate
  some of the deprecated syscalls from the generic syscall ABI.
- Update the tile_defconfig to reflect current config contents.

Chris Metcalf 867e359b97 arch/tile: core support for Tilera 32-bit chips.
This change is the core kernel support for TILEPro and TILE64 chips.
No driver support (except the console driver) is included yet.

This includes the relevant Linux headers in asm/; the low-level
low-level "Tile architecture" headers in arch/, which are
shared with the hypervisor, etc., and are build-system agnostic;
and the relevant hypervisor headers in hv/.
