The extra-y syntax is deprecated. Instead, use always-$(KBUILD_BUILTIN),
which behaves equivalently.

<title>kbuild: use obj-y instead extra-y for objects placed at the head</title>

The objects placed at the head of vmlinux need special treatments:

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile adds them to head-y in order to place
   them before other archives in the linker command line.

 - arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile adds them to extra-y instead of
   obj-y to avoid them going into built-in.a.

This commit gets rid of the latter.

Create vmlinux.a to collect all the objects that are unconditionally
linked to vmlinux. The objects listed in head-y are moved to the head
of vmlinux.a by using 'ar m'.

With this, arch/$(SRCARCH)/kernel/Makefile can consistently use obj-y
for builtin objects.

There is no *.o that is directly linked to vmlinux. Drop unneeded code
in scripts/clang-tools/gen_compile_commands.py.

$(AR) mPi needs 'T' to workaround the llvm-ar bug. The fix was suggested
by Nathan Chancellor [1].

Optimize memcpy_{from,to}io() and memset_io() by transferring in
64 bit as much as possible with minimized barrier usage.  This
simplest optimization brings faster throughput compare to current
byte-by-byte read and write with barrier in the loop. Code's
skeleton is taken from the powerpc &amp; arm64.

The implementation of show_stack will panic with wrong fp:

addr    = *fp++;

because the fp isn't checked properly.

The current implementations of show_stack, wchan and stack_trace
haven't been designed properly, so just deprecate them.

This patch is a reference to riscv's way, all codes are modified from
arm's. The patch is passed with:

 - cat /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/stack
 - cat /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/wchan
 - echo c &gt; /proc/sysrq-trigger

This patch enable kprobes, kretprobes, ftrace interface. It utilized
software breakpoint and single step debug exceptions, instructions
simulation on csky.

We use USR_BKPT replace origin instruction, and the kprobe handler
prepares an excutable memory slot for out-of-line execution with a
copy of the original instruction being probed. Most of instructions
could be executed by single-step, but some instructions need origin
pc value to execute and we need software simulate these instructions.
