On multi-chip boards, the first core on slave SoCs may take much
more time to wakeup. Add code to wait for the core to come up before
proceeding with the rest of the boot up.

Update xlp_wakeup_core to also skip the boot node and the boot CPU
initialization which is already complete.

Doing calibrate delay on a hardware thread will be inaccurate since
it depends on the load on other threads in the core. It will also
slow down the boot process when done for 128 hardware threads. Switch
to a pre-computed loops per jiffy based on the core frequency. The
value is computed based on the core frequency and roughly matches the
value calculated by calibrate_delay().

<title>MIPS: Netlogic: Use PIC timer as a clocksource</title>

<content type='text'>
The XLR/XLS/XLP PIC has a 8 countdown timers which run at the PIC
frequencey. One of these can be used as a clocksource to provide
timestamps that is common across cores. This can be used in place
of the count/compare clocksource which is per-CPU.

On XLR/XLS PIC registers are 32-bit, so we just use the lower 32-bits
of the PIC counter. On XLP, the whole 64-bit can be used.

Provide common macros and functions for PIC timer registers on XLR/XLS
and XLP, and use them to register a PIC clocksource.

<title>MIPS: Netlogic: Split XLP L1 i-cache among threads</title>

Since we now use r4k cache code for Netlogic XLP, it is
better to split L1 icache among the active threads, so that
threads won't step on each other while flushing icache.

The L1 dcache is already split among the threads in the core.

<title>MIPS: Netlogic: Optimize EIMR/EIRR accesses in 32-bit</title>

Provide functions ack_c0_eirr(), set_c0_eimr(), clear_c0_eimr()
and read_c0_eirr_and_eimr() that do the EIMR and EIRR operations
and update the interrupt handling code to use these functions.
Also, use the EIMR register functions to mask interrupts in the
irq code.

The 64-bit interrupt request and mask registers (EIRR and EIMR) are
accessed when the interrupts are off, and the common operations are
to set or clear a bit in these registers. Using the 64-bit c0 access
functions for these operations is not optimal in 32-bit, because it
will disable/restore interrupts and split/join the 64-bit value during
each register access.
