If the PC on the stack is updated in entry-armv.S,
do_undefinstr can get called after the fixup. do_undefinstr
does its own fixup, and doing both causes the PC to point to
half way through an instruction.
Instead, do the fixup in do_vfp, where only the vfp code
can get called.

Since the Thumb-2 instructions can be 16-bit wide, data in the .text
sections may not be aligned to a 32-bit word and this leads to unaligned
exceptions. This patch does not affect the ARM code generation.

We've observed that ARM VFP state can be corrupted during VFP exception
handling when PREEMPT is enabled. The exact conditions are difficult
to reproduce but appear to occur during VFP exception handling when a
task causes a VFP exception which is handled via VFP_bounce and is then
preempted by yet another task which in turn causes yet another VFP
exception. Since the VFP_bounce code is not preempt safe, VFP state then
becomes corrupt. In order to prevent preemption from occuring while
handling a VFP exception, this patch disables preemption while handling
VFP exceptions.

This declaration specifies the "function" type and size for various
assembly functions, mainly needed for generating the correct branch
instructions in Thumb-2.

Fix a real section mismatch issue; the test code is thrown away after
initialisation, but if we do not detect the VFP hardware, it is left
hooked into the exception handler. Any VFP instructions which are
subsequently executed risk calling the discarded exception handler.
Introduce a new "null" handler which returns to the "unrecognised
fault" return address.

The current lazy saving of the VFP registers is no longer possible
with thread migration on SMP. This patch implements a per-CPU
vfp-state pointer and the saving of the VFP registers at every context
switch. The registers restoring is still performed in a lazy way.

5d25ac038a317d454a4321cba955f756400835a5 broke VFP builds due to
enable_irq not being defined as an assembly macro. Move it to
assembler.h so everyone can use it.

Allow the individual coprocessor handlers to decide when to enable
interrupts, rather than unconditionally enabling them.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
