The "addi" instruction will trap on overflows which is not something
we need in this code, so we replace that with "addiu".

The CPS code is doing several memory loads when configuring the VPEs
from secondary cores, so the segmentation control registers must be
initialized in time otherwise the kernel will crash with strange
TLB exceptions.

Rather than hardcoding CCA=0x5 for secondary cores, re-use the CCA from
the boot CPU. This allows overrides of the CCA using the cca= kernel
parameter to take effect on all CPUs for consistency.

This patch adds code to generate entry & exit code for various low power
states available on systems based around the MIPS Coherent Processing
System architecture (ie. those with a Coherence Manager, Global
Interrupt Controller & for >=CM2 a Cluster Power Controller). States
supported are:
- Non-coherent wait. This state first leaves the coherent domain and
then executes a regular MIPS wait instruction. Power savings are
found from the elimination of coherency interventions between the
core and any other coherent requestors in the system.
- Clock gated. This state leaves the coherent domain and then gates
the clock input to the core. This removes all dynamic power from the
core but leaves the core at the mercy of another to restart its
clock. Register state is preserved, but the core can not service
interrupts whilst its clock is gated.
- Power gated. This deepest state removes all power input to the core.
All register state is lost and the core will restart execution from
its BEV when another core powers it back up. Because register state
is lost this state requires cooperation with the CONFIG_MIPS_CPS SMP
implementation in order for the core to exit the state successfully.
The code will detect which states are available on the current system
during boot & generate the entry/exit code for those states. This will
be used by cpuidle & hotplug implementations.

When hotplug and/or a powered down idle state are supported cases will
arise where a non-zero VPE must be brought online without VPE 0, and it
where multiple VPEs must be onlined simultaneously. This patch prepares
for that by:
- Splitting struct boot_config into core & VPE boot config structures,
allocated one per core or VPE respectively. This allows for multiple
VPEs to be onlined simultaneously without clobbering each others
configuration.
- Indicating which VPEs should be online within a core at any given
time using a bitmap. This allows multiple VPEs to be brought online
simultaneously and also indicates to VPE 0 whether it should halt
after starting any non-zero VPEs that should be online within the
core. For example if all VPEs within a core are offlined via hotplug
and the user onlines the second VPE within that core:
1) The core will be powered up.
2) VPE 0 will run from the BEV (ie. mips_cps_core_entry) to
initialise the core.
3) VPE 0 will start VPE 1 because its bit is set in the cores
bitmap.
4) VPE 0 will halt itself because its bit is clear in the cores
bitmap.
- Moving the core & VPE initialisation to assembly code which does not
make any use of the stack. This is because if a non-zero VPE is to
be brought online in a powered down core then when VPE 0 of that
core runs it may not have a valid stack, and even if it did then
it's messy to run through parts of generic kernel code on VPE 0
before starting the correct VPE.

This patch introduces a new SMP implementation for systems implementing
the MIPS Coherent Processing System architecture. The kernel will make
use of the Coherence Manager, Cluster Power Controller & Global
Interrupt Controller in order to detect, bring up & make use of other
cores in the system. SMTC is not supported, so only a single TC per VPE
in the system is used. That is, this option enables an SMVP style setup
but across multiple cores.
