Vineet Gupta 3d5e80125a ARCv2: entry: save Accumulator register pair (r58:59) if present
Accumulator is present in configs with FPU and/or DSP MPY (mpy > 6)

Instead of doing this in pt_regs (and thus every kernel entry/exit),
this could have been done in context switch (and for user task only) as
currently kernel doesn't clobber these registers for its own accord.
However we will soon start using 64-bit multiply instructions for kernel
which can clobber these. Also gcc folks also plan to start using these
as GPRs, hence better to always save/restore them

Vineet Gupta ecd43afdbe ARCv2: save r30 on kernel entry as gcc uses it for code-gen
This is not exposed to userspace debugers yet, which can be done
independently as a seperate patch !

Vineet Gupta 1f6ccfff63 ARCv2: Support for ARCv2 ISA and HS38x cores
The notable features are:
    - SMP configurations of upto 4 cores with coherency
    - Optional L2 Cache and IO-Coherency
    - Revised Interrupt Architecture (multiple priorites, reg banks,
        auto stack switch, auto regfile save/restore)
    - MMUv4 (PIPT dcache, Huge Pages)
    - Instructions for
	* 64bit load/store: LDD, STD
	* Hardware assisted divide/remainder: DIV, REM
	* Function prologue/epilogue: ENTER_S, LEAVE_S
	* IRQ enable/disable: CLRI, SETI
	* pop count: FFS, FLS
	* SETcc, BMSKN, XBFU...
