Vineet Gupta ccdaa6e0c8 ARC: [SMP] IPI ACK interface doesn't need "self" cpu-id
The interface is confusing, it feels like we are getting "sender" info,
whereas it is the "receiver", which can very well be retrived by
smp_processor_id(), if need be.

Vineet Gupta ddf84433f4 ARC: [SMP] cpumask not needed in IPI send path
The current IPI sending callstack needlessly involves cpumask.

   arch_send_call_function_single_ipi(cpu) / smp_send_reschedule(cpu)
      ipi_send_msg(cpumask_of(cpu))	--> [cpu to cpumask]
         plat_smp_ops.ipi_send(callmap)
            for_each_cpu(callmap)	--> [cpuask to cpu]
               do_plat_specific_ipi_PER_CPU

Given that current backends are not capable of 1:N IPIs, lets simplify
the interface for now, by keeping "a" cpu all along.

Chen Gang 8f5d221b06 arc: remove '__init' for first_lines_of_secondary()
first_lines_of_secondary() is a '__init' function, but it may be called
by __cpu_up() by _cpu_up() by cpu_up() which is a normal export symbol
function. So recommend to remove '__init'.

The related warning (with allmodconfig):

    MODPOST vmlinux.o
  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x315c): Section mismatch in reference from the function __cpu_up() to the function .init.text:first_lines_of_secondary()
  The function __cpu_up() references
  the function __init first_lines_of_secondary().
  This is often because __cpu_up lacks a __init
  annotation or the annotation of first_lines_of_secondary is wrong.

Vineet Gupta 10b1271875 ARC: [Review] Multi-platform image #7: SMP common code to use callbacks
This again is for switch from singleton platform SMP API to
multi-platform paradigm

Platform code is not yet setup to populate the callbacks, that happens
in next commit

Vineet Gupta 41195d236e ARC: SMP support
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.
