<content type='text'>
commit 252f6e8eae909bc075a1b1e3b9efb095ae4c0b56 upstream.

It is currently done in arc_init_IRQ() which might be too late
considering gcc 7.3.1 onwards (GNU 2018.03) generates unaligned
memory accesses by default

<content type='text'>
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

<title>ARC: boot: Support Halt-on-reset and Run-on-reset SMP booting modes</title>

<id>3971cdc202f638f252e39316d42492ace04cc1b1</id>
<content type='text'>
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)

The notable features are:
    - SMP configurations of upto 4 cores with coherency
    - Optional L2 Cache and IO-Coherency
    - Revised Interrupt Architecture (multiple priorites, reg banks,
        auto stack switch, auto regfile save/restore)
    - MMUv4 (PIPT dcache, Huge Pages)
    - Instructions for
	* 64bit load/store: LDD, STD
	* Hardware assisted divide/remainder: DIV, REM
	* Function prologue/epilogue: ENTER_S, LEAVE_S
	* IRQ enable/disable: CLRI, SETI
	* pop count: FFS, FLS
	* SETcc, BMSKN, XBFU...

* 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
