overhaul arm atomics for new atomics framework switch to ll/sc model so that new atomic.h can provide optimized versions of all the atomic primitives without needing an ll/sc loop written in asm for each one. all isa levels which use ldrex/strex now use the inline ll/sc model even if the type of barrier to use is not known until runtime (v6). the cas model is only used for arm v5 and earlier, and it has been optimized to make the call via inline asm with custom constraints rather than as a C function call.

extern const void *__arm_atomics[3]; /* gettp, cas, barrier */
use dmb barrier instruction for atomics on arm v7 aside from potentially offering better performance, this change is needed since the old coprocessor-based approach to barriers is deprecated in arm v7, and some compilers/assemblers issue errors when using the deprecated instruction for v7 targets.

better a_sc inline asm constraint on aarch64 and arm "Q" input constraint was used for the written object, instead of "=Q" output constraint. this should not cause problems because "memory" is on the clobber list, but "=Q" better documents the intent and more consistent with the actual asm code. this changes the generated code, because different registers are used, but other than the register names nothing should change.

use inline atomics and thread pointer on arm models supporting them this is perhaps not the optimal implementation; a_cas still compiles to nested loops due to the different interface contracts of the kuser helper cas function (whose contract this patch implements) and the a_cas function (whose contract mimics the x86 cmpxchg). fixing this may be possible, but it's more complicated and thus deferred until a later time. aside from improving performance and code size, this patch also provides a means of producing binaries which can run on hardened kernels where the kuser helpers have been disabled. however, at present this requires producing binaries for armv6k or later, which will not run on older cpus. a real solution to the problem of kernels that omit the kuser helpers would be runtime detection, so that universal binaries which run on all arm cpu models can also be compatible with all kernel hardening profiles. robust detection however is a much harder problem, and will be addressed at a later time.

refactor internal atomic.h rather than having each arch provide its own atomic.h, there is a new shared atomic.h in src/internal which pulls arch-specific definitions from arc/$(ARCH)/atomic_arch.h. the latter can be extremely minimal, defining only a_cas or new ll/sc type primitives which the shared atomic.h will use to construct everything else. this commit avoids making heavy changes to the individual archs' atomic implementations. definitions which are identical or near-identical to what the new shared atomic.h would produce have been removed, but otherwise the changes made are just hooking up the arch-specific files to the new infrastructure. major changes to take advantage of the new system will come in subsequent commits.

initial commit of the arm port this port assumes eabi calling conventions, eabi linux syscall convention, and presence of the kernel helpers at 0xffff0f?0 needed for threads support. otherwise it makes very few assumptions, and the code should work even on armv4 without thumb support, as well as on systems with thumb interworking. the bits headers declare this a little endian system, but as far as i can tell the code should work equally well on big endian. some small details are probably broken; so far, testing has been limited to qemu/aboriginal linux.

add native a_crash primitive for arm the .byte directive encodes a guaranteed-undefined instruction, the same one Linux fills the kuser helper page with when it's disabled. the udf mnemonic and and .insn directives are not supported by old binutils versions, and larger-than-byte integer directives would produce the wrong output on big-endian.
