ARC: __switch_to: move ksp to thread_info from thread_struct

task's arch specific bits are carried in 2 places
- embedded thread_struct in task_struct
- associated thread_info (hoisted in task's stack page) and
syntactically: (thread_info *)(task_struct->stack)

ksp (dynamic kernel stack top) currently lives in thread_struct but
given its deep location in task struct likely to cache miss when
accessed from __switch_to(). Moving it to thread_info would be more
efficient given proximity to frequently accessed items such as
preempt_count thus very likely to be in cache, specially in schedular
code.

Note however that currently tsk.thread.ksp takes 1 memory access (off
of tsk pointer) while new code tsk->stack.ksp would take 2, but likely
to be in cache. Moreover if task is current the 2nd reference can be
elided and instead derived from SP as (SP & ~(THREAD_SIZE - 1))

All of this also makes __switch_to() code simpler and we can see the 2
ways of retirving ksp (descrobed above) in new code.

ARC: kernel stack: INIT_THREAD need not setup @init_stack in @ksp

There are 2 pointers to kernel mode stack of a task
- task_struct.stack: base address of stack page (max possible stack top)
- thread_info.ksp : runtime stack top in __switch_to

INIT_THREAD was setting up ksp to stack base which was not really needed
- it would get overwritten with dynamic value on first call to
__switch_to when init is switched out for the very first time.
- generic code already does
init_task.stack = init_stack
and ARC code uses that to retrieve task's stack base.

Forthcoming hw will have multiple levels, so this change preps mm code

ensure generic mm code is robust to handle.

overview
________

2 levels {pgd, pte} : pmd is folded but pmd_* macros are valid and operate on pgd
3 levels {pgd, pmd, pte}:
- pud is folded and pud_* macros point to pgd
- pmd_* macros operate on actual pmd

code changes
____________

1. #include <asm-generic/pgtable-nopud.h>

2. Define CONFIG_PGTABLE_LEVELS 3

3a. Define PMD_SHIFT, PMD_SIZE, PMD_MASK, pmd_t
3b. Define pmd_val() which actually deals with pmd
(pmd_offset(), pmd_index() are provided by generic code)
3c. pmd_alloc_one()/pmd_free() also provided by generic code
(pmd_populate/pmd_free already exist)

4. Define pud_none(), pud_bad() macros based on generic pud_val() which
internally pertains to pgd now.
4b. define pud_populate() to just setup pgd

locking/core: Introduce cpu_relax_yield()

For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
"cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

ARC: [plat-eznps] Use dedicated cpu_relax()

Since the CTOP is SMT hardware multi-threaded, we need to hint
the HW that now will be a very good time to do a hardware
thread context switching. This is done by issuing the schd.rw
instruction (binary coded here so as to not require specific
revision of GCC to build the kernel).
sched.rw means that Thread becomes eligible for execution by
the threads scheduler after all pending read/write
transactions were completed.

ARC: Make vmalloc size configurable

On ARC, lower 2G of address space is translated and used for
- user vaddr space (region 0 to 5)
- unused kernel-user gutter (region 6)
- kernel vaddr space (region 7)

where each region simply represents 256MB of address space.

The kernel vaddr space of 256MB is used to implement vmalloc, modules
So far this was enough, but not on EZChip system with 4K CPUs (given
that per cpu mechanism uses vmalloc for allocating chunks)

So allow VMALLOC_SIZE to be configurable by expanding down into the unused
kernel-user gutter region which at default 256M was excessive anyways.

Also use _BITUL() to fix a build error since PGDIR_SIZE cannot use "1UL"
as called from assembly code in mm/tlbex.S

ARC: mm: HIGHMEM: kmap API implementation

Implement kmap* API for ARC.

This enables
- permanent kernel maps (pkmaps): :kmap() API
- fixmap : kmap_atomic()

We use a very simple/uniform approach for both (unlike some of the other
arches). So fixmap doesn't use the customary compile time address stuff.
The important semantic is sleep'ability (pkmap) vs. not (fixmap) which
the API guarantees.

Note that this patch only enables highmem for subsequent PAE40 support
as there is no real highmem for ARC in pure 32-bit paradigm as explained
below.

ARC has 2:2 address split of the 32-bit address space with lower half
being translated (virtual) while upper half unstranslated
(0x8000_0000 to 0xFFFF_FFFF). kernel itself is linked at base of
unstranslated space (i.e. 0x8000_0000 onwards), which is mapped to say
DDR 0x0 by external Bus Glue logic (outside the core). So kernel can
potentially access 1.75G worth of memory directly w/o need for highmem.
(the top 256M is taken by uncached peripheral space from 0xF000_0000 to
0xFFFF_FFFF)

In PAE40, hardware can address memory beyond 4G (0x1_0000_0000) while
the logical/virtual addresses remain 32-bits. Thus highmem is required
for kernel proper to be able to access these pages for it's own purposes
(user space is agnostic to this anyways).
