commit d1b6ba82a50cecf94be540a3a153aa89d97511a0 upstream.

Remove restoring a6 on some return paths and instead modify and restore
it in a single place, using symbolic name.
Correctly restore a7 from PT_AREG7 in case of illegal a6 value.

<title>xtensa: fix TLBTEMP_BASE_2 region handling in fast_second_level_miss</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 7128039fe2dd3d59da9e4ffa036f3aaa3ba87b9f upstream.

Current definition of TLBTEMP_BASE_2 is always 32K above the
TLBTEMP_BASE_1, whereas fast_second_level_miss handler for the TLBTEMP
region analyzes virtual address bit (PAGE_SHIFT + DCACHE_ALIAS_ORDER)
to determine TLBTEMP region where the fault happened. The size of the
TLBTEMP region is also checked incorrectly: not 64K, but twice data
cache way size (whicht may as well be less than the instruction cache
way size).

Fix TLBTEMP_BASE_2 to be TLBTEMP_BASE_1 + data cache way size.
Provide TLBTEMP_SIZE that is a greater of doubled data cache way size or
the instruction cache way size, and use it to determine if the second
level TLB miss occured in the TLBTEMP region.

Practical occurence of page faults in the TLBTEMP area is extremely
rare, this code can be tested by deletion of all w[di]tlb instructions
in the tlbtemp_mapping region.

Move all header files for xtensa to arch/xtensa/include and platform and
variant header files to the appropriate arch/xtensa/platforms/ and
arch/xtensa/variants/ directories.

Moving the files gets also rid of all uses of symlinks in the Makefile.

This has been completed already for the majority of the architectures
and xtensa is one out of six missing.

For processor configurations that have optional registers
(compiler-used but non-coprocessor), user space registers
might get corrupted when there are only 4 registers in
the current window-frame, ie. register a4 belongs to the
oldest frame in the register file.

<title>[XTENSA] Add support for configurable registers and coprocessors</title>

<id>c658eac628aa8df040dfe614556d95e6da3a9ffb</id>
<content type='text'>
The Xtensa architecture allows to define custom instructions and
registers. Registers that are bound to a coprocessor are only
accessible if the corresponding enable bit is set, which allows
to implement a 'lazy' context switch mechanism. Other registers
needs to be saved and restore at the time of the context switch
or during interrupt handling.

This patch adds support for these additional states:

- save and restore registers that are used by the compiler upon
  interrupt entry and exit.
- context switch additional registers unbound to any coprocessor
- 'lazy' context switch of registers bound to a coprocessor
- ptrace interface to provide access to additional registers
- update configuration files in include/asm-xtensa/variant-fsf

We will never (need to) support signal handling coming from a
double exception. There are too many things that could go wrong
and delivering signals is not the fastest method for IPC, anyway.
