This updates the sh64 processor info with the sh32 changes in order to
tie in to the generic task_xstate management code.

This follows the x86 xstate changes and implements a task_xstate slab
cache that is dynamically sized to match one of hard FP/soft FP/FPU-less.
This also tidies up and consolidates some of the SH-2A/SH-4 FPU
fragmentation. Now fpu state restorers are commonly defined, with the
init_fpu()/fpu_init() mess reworked to follow the x86 convention.
The fpu_init() register initialization has been replaced by xstate setup
followed by writing out to hardware via the standard restore path.
As init_fpu() now performs a slab allocation a secondary lighterweight
restorer is also introduced for the context switch.
In the future the DSP state will be rolled in here, too.
More work remains for math emulation and the SH-5 FPU, which presently
uses its own special (UP-only) interfaces.

start_thread() will become a bit heavier with the xstate freeing to be
added in, so move it out-of-line in preparation.

This is the next big chunk of hw_breakpoint support. This decouples
the SH-4A support from the core and moves it out in to its own stub,
following many of the conventions established with the perf events
layering.
In addition to extending SH-4A support to encapsulate the remainder
of the UBC channels, clock framework support for handling the UBC
interface clock is added as well, allowing for dynamic clock gating.
This also fixes up a regression introduced by the SIGTRAP handling that
broke the ksym_tracer, to the extent that the current support works well
with all of the ksym_tracer/ptrace/kgdb. The kprobes singlestep code will
follow in turn.
With this in place, the remaining UBC variants (SH-2A and SH-4) can now
be trivially plugged in.

Conflict between FPU thread flag migration and debug
thread flag addition.
Conflicts:
arch/sh/include/asm/thread_info.h
arch/sh/include/asm/ubc.h
arch/sh/kernel/process_32.c
This adds preliminary support for the SH-4A UBC to the hw-breakpoints API.
Presently only a single channel is implemented, and the ptrace interface
still needs to be converted. This is the first step to cleaning up the
long-standing UBC mess, making the UBC more generally accessible, and
finally making it SMP safe.
An additional abstraction will be layered on top of this as with the perf
events code to permit the various CPU families to wire up support for
their own specific UBCs, as many variations exist.

A number of small optimisations to FPU handling, in particular:
- move the task USEDFPU flag from the thread_info flags field (which
is accessed asynchronously to the thread) to a new status field,
which is only accessed by the thread itself. This allows locking to
be removed in most cases, or can be reduced to a preempt_lock().
This mimics the i386 behaviour.
- move the modification of regs->sr and thread_info->status flags out
of save_fpu() to __unlazy_fpu(). This gives the compiler a better
chance to optimise things, as well as making save_fpu() symmetrical
with restore_fpu() and init_fpu().
- implement prepare_to_copy(), so that when creating a thread, we can
unlazy the FPU prior to copying the thread data structures.
Also make sure that the FPU is disabled while in the kernel, in
particular while booting, and for newly created kernel threads,
In a very artificial benchmark, the execution time for 2500000
context switches was reduced from 50 to 45 seconds.

There were a number of issues with the DSP context save/restore code,
mostly left-over relics from when it was introduced on SH3-DSP with
little follow-up testing, resulting in things like task_pt_dspregs()
referencing incorrect state on the stack.
This follows the MIPS convention of tracking the DSP state in the
thread_struct and handling the state save/restore in switch_to() and
finish_arch_switch() respectively. The regset interface is also updated,
which allows us to finally be rid of task_pt_dspregs() and the special
cased task_pt_regs().
