Use the default FCSR value in mask probing, avoiding an FPE exception
where reset has left any exception enable and their corresponding cause
bits set and the register is then rewritten with these bits active.

Factor out FPU feature probing, mainly to remove code duplication from
`fpu_disable'.  No functional change although shuffle some code to avoid
forward references.

Define the central place the default FCSR value is set from, initialised
in `cpu_probe'.  Determine the FCSR mask applied to values written to
the register with CTC1 in the full emulation mode and via ptrace(2),
according to the ISA level of processor hardware or the writability of
bits 31:18 if actual FPU hardware is used.

Software may rely on FCSR bits whose functions our emulator does not
implement, so it should not allow them to be set or software may get
confused.  For ptrace(2) it's just sanity.

<content type='text'>
Implement FIR feature flags in the FPU emulator according to features
supported and architecture level requirements.  The W, L and F64 bits
have only been added at level #2 even though the features they refer to
were also included with the MIPS64r1 ISA and the W fixed-point format
also with the MIPS32r1 ISA.

This is only relevant for the full emulation mode and the emulated CFC1
instruction as well as ptrace(2) accesses.

Correct an ISA level determination problem introduced with 8b8aa636
[MIPS: kernel: cpu-probe.c: Add support for MIPS R6], reverting explicit
masking against individual `MIPS_CPU_ISA_*' macros in FPU feature
determination.

Feature macros such as `cpu_has_mips_r' cannot be used here, because
they operate on CPU #0 and we want to refer to the current CPU instead.
They cannot be used for masking against the current CPU either because
they mask against CPU #0 too, e.g.:

# define cpu_has_mips32r1	(cpu_data[0].isa_level &amp; MIPS_CPU_ISA_M32R1)

This allows the kernel to correctly detect an R16000 MIPS CPU on systems that
have those.  Otherwise, such systems will detect the CPU as an R14000, due to
similarities in the CPU PRId value.

<content type='text'>
Add architectural definitions and probing for the MIPS Common Device
Memory Map (CDMM) region. When supported and enabled at a particular
physical address, this region allows some number of per-CPU devices to
be discovered and controlled via MMIO.

A bit exists in Config3 to determine whether the feature is present, and
a CDMMBase CP0 register allows the region to be enabled at a particular
physical address.

<content type='text'>
Add support for extended physical addressing (XPA) so that
32-bit platforms can access equal to or greater than 40 bits
of physical addresses.

NOTE:
      1) XPA and EVA are not the same and cannot be used
         simultaneously.
      2) If you configure your kernel for XPA, the PTEs
         and all address sizes become 64-bit.
      3) Your platform MUST have working HIGHMEM support.
