<title>mips: Replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in the mips headers</title>

<id>157f9533f9ffb5d9544515dcfe54e0901d9aa615</id>
<content type='text'>
While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembler code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro
that only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. Defining
such a macro was necessary in the early days of the kernel, since GCC
only started providing __ASSEMBLER__ since version 3.0 in 2000 (see
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commitdiff;h=f8f769ea4e69 ).
However, having two macros can be very confusing nowadays for the
developers when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding,
or when dealing with uapi headers that should use __ASSEMBLER__
instead. So let's now standardize on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is
provided by the compilers.

This is almost a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple
"sed -i" statement), with just one comment tweaked manually in
arch/mips/include/asm/cpu.h (that was missing some underscores).

<title>MIPS: PM: Implement PM helper macros</title>

Implement assembler helper macros in asm/pm.h for platform code to use
for saving context across low power states - for example suspend to RAM
or powered down cpuidle states. Macros are provided for saving and
restoring the main CPU context used by C code and doing important
configuration which must be done very early during resume. Notably EVA
needs segmentation control registers to be restored before the stack or
dynamically allocated memory is accessed, so that state is saved in
global data.
