SLC maintenance ops need to be serialized by software as there is no inherent buffering / quequing of aux commands. It can silently ignore a new aux operation if previous one is still ongoing (SLC_CTRL_BUSY) So gaurd the SLC op using a spin lock The spin lock doesn't seem to be contended even in heavy workloads such as iperf. On FPGA @ 75 MHz.

Pull ARC architecture updates from Vineet Gupta:
- support for HS38 cores based on ARCv2 ISA
ARCv2 is the next generation ISA from Synopsys and basis for the
HS3{4,6,8} families of processors which retain the traditional ARC mantra of
low power and configurability and are now more performant and feature rich.
HS38x is a 10 stage pipeline core which supports MMU (with huge pages) and
SMP (upto 4 cores) among other features.

L2 cache on ARCHS processors is called SLC (System Level Cache) For working DMA (in absence of hardware assisted IO Coherency) we need to manage SLC explicitly when buffers transition between cpu and controllers. Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>

Caveats about cache flush on ARCv2 based cores - dcache is PIPT so paddr is sufficient for cache maintenance ops (no need to setup PTAG reg - icache is still VIPT but only aliasing configs need PTAG setup So basically this is departure from MMU-v3 which always need vaddr in line ops registers (DC_IVDL, DC_FLDL, IC_IVIL) but paddr in DC_PTAG, IC_PTAG respectively.
