As it is stated in LD manual [1] the second entry in OUTPUT_FORMAT
corresponds to "-EB" command-line option which for us is "elf32-bigarc".

This is useful for cases when U-Boot image is put in ROM and
reset vector points to 0 where the very beginnign of the image reside.

Fixes commit fac4790491f6 ("arc: Eliminate unused code and data with GCC's garbage collector"),
see [1].

Since in case of ARCv2 .ivt only contains addrresses of
interrupt/exception handlers linker doesn't understand that this section
actually make a lot of sense and decides to get rid of it if we use
"--gc-sections".

And KEEP does exactly this, see [2].

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

Starting from arc-2016.03 GNU tools linker properly works with
symbols defined in linker script and so external declarations
are no longer required, dump them.

Initially IVT for ARCv2 was simply copypasted from ARCompact
with some selected fixes so basic stuff works.

Now we update it with more ARCv2 specific vectors like
 * Software Interrupt
 * Division by zero
 * Data cache consistency error
 * Misaligned access

Also normal interrupts are now implemented properly and extened to
all possible 240 items.

This is important to have entry point in the beginning of .text section
because it allows simple loading and execution of U-Boot.

For example pre-bootloader loads U-Boot in memory starting from offset
0x81000000 and then just jumps to the same address.

Otherwise pre-bootloader would need to find-out where entry-point is. In
its turn if it deals with binary image of U-Boot there's no way for
pre-bootloader to get required value.

Even though ARCompact and ARCv2 are not binary compatible most of
assembly instructions are used in both. With this change we'll get rid
of duplicate code.

Still IVTs are implemented differently so we're keeping them in separate
files.

ARC HS and ARC EM are new cores based on ARCv2 ISA which is binary
incompatible with ISAv1 (AKA ARCompact).

Significant difference between ISAv2 and v1 is implementation of
interrupt vector table.

In v1 it is implemented in the same way as on many other architectures -
as a special location where user may put whether code executed in place
(if machine word of space is enough) or jump to a full-scale interrupt
handler.

In v2 interrupt table is just an array of adresses of real interrupt
handlers. That requires a separate section for IVT that is not encoded
as code by assembler.

This change adds support for following cores:
 * ARC EM6 (simple 32-bit microcontroller without MMU)
 * ARC HS36 (advanced 32-bit microcontroller without MMU)
 * ARC HS38 (advanced 32-bit microcontroller with MMU)

As a part of ARC HS38 new version of MMU (v4) was introduced.

Also this change adds AXS131 board which is the same DW ARC SDP base board but
with ARC HS38 CPU tile.

As a preparation to ARCv2 port submission we're moving CPU slection
flags to a common location.
Also it will allow us to have more flexible CPU specification, not only
ISA version but CPU family as well checking CONFIG_ARC_CPU_xxx.
