* DWARF unwinder related
  + Force DWARF2 compliant .debug_frame (gcc 4.8 defaults to DWARF4
    which kernel unwinder can't grok).
  + Discard the additional .eh_frame generated
  + Discard the dwarf4 debug info generated by -gdwarf-2 for normal
    no debug case

* 4.8 already uses arc600 multilibs for -mno-mpy

* switch to using uclibc compiler (to get -mmedium-calls and -mno-sdata)
  and also since buildroot can only use 1 toolchain

The existing uImage target always generates gzip compressed image which
drags bootup for some very slow FPGA customer boards.

So introduce seperate make targets:uImage.{bin,gz} with uncompressed
being default. Also tie gz generation to CONFIG_KERNEL_GZIP, which a
platform can select in it's Kconfig if it wishes gz to be default.

We do cross compiles for ARC Linux.
With gcc 4.7, a make defconfig spews out the following:

-------------------&gt;8--------------------------
make ARCH=arc defconfig
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-marc600'
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mA7'
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-sdata'
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-mno-mpy'
*** Default configuration is based on 'fpga_defconfig'
-------------------&gt;8--------------------------

This apparently is coming from LIBGCC line - which is strange to be
invoked for defconfig generation.

<title>ARC: SMP support</title>

ARC common code to enable a SMP system + ISS provided SMP extensions.

ARC700 natively lacks SMP support, hence some of the core features are
are only enabled if SoCs have the necessary h/w pixie-dust. This
includes:
-Inter Processor Interrupts (IPI)
-Cache coherency
-load-locked/store-conditional
...

The low level exception handling would be completely broken in SMP
because we don't have hardware assisted stack switching. Thus a fair bit
of this code is repurposing the MMU_SCRATCH reg for event handler
prologues to keep them re-entrant.

Many thanks to Rajeshwar Ranga for his initial "major" contributions to
SMP Port (back in 2008), and to Noam Camus and Gilad Ben-Yossef for help
with resurrecting that in 3.2 kernel (2012).

Note that this platform code is again singleton design pattern - so
multiple SMP platforms won't build at the moment - this deficiency is
addressed in subsequent patches within this series.
