SH-2A is unable to combine the kernel and libgcc objects due to
fundamental disagreements over FDPIC settings. As the kernel already
contains all of the libgcc bits broken out, there's not much need to
bother with the linking anymore, as everything can already be derived
from the lib dir.

This simply plugs in the necessary bits to ensure that everything is
built uniformly, enabling us to wean the compressed build off of explicit
libgcc linking.

This patch enables gcov kernel profiling over the whole kernel for sh.
Profiling of specific files individually already worked. A handful of
files have to be explicitly excluded from the profiling to avoid
breaking things, notably pmb.c.

Update the SH kernel to keep SR.BL set until the VBR
register has been initialized. Useful to allow boot
of the kernel even though exceptions are pending.

Without this patch there is a window of time when
exceptions such as NMI are enabled but no exception
handlers are installed.

This patch modifies both the zImage loader and the
actual kernel to boot with BL=1, but the zImage
loader is modfied in such a way that the init_sr
value is unchanged to not break the zImage loader
provided by kexec.

Tested on sh7724 Ecovec and on the SH4AL-DSP core
included in sh7372.

We can't necessarily use the P1SEG region to access RAM when running in
32BIT mode, so use CONFIG_MEMORY_START as the base address.

When running in 32BIT mode the P1SEG region doesn't necessarily provide
a window onto RAM (it depends how the bootloader setup the PMB). The
correct location to place the decompressed kernel is the physical
address of _text.

This implements a bit of rework for the PMB code, which permits us to
kill off the legacy PMB mode completely. Rather than trusting the boot
loader to do the right thing, we do a quick verification of the PMB
contents to determine whether to have the kernel setup the initial
mappings or whether it needs to mangle them later on instead.

If we're booting from legacy mappings, the kernel will now take control
of them and make them match the kernel's initial mapping configuration.
This is accomplished by breaking the initialization phase out in to
multiple steps: synchronization, merging, and resizing. With the recent
rework, the synchronization code establishes page links for compound
mappings already, so we build on top of this for promoting mappings and
reclaiming unused slots.

At the same time, the changes introduced for the uncached helpers also
permit us to dynamically resize the uncached mapping without any
particular headaches. The smallest page size is more than sufficient for
mapping all of kernel text, and as we're careful not to jump to any far
off locations in the setup code the mapping can safely be resized
regardless of whether we are executing from it or not.
