This patch makes some slight changes to the exception hook interface.
The old code provides a different handler hook for every exception
type... however, in practice all those hook functions often need to look
very similar, so this creates more boilerplate than it removes. The new
interface just allows for a single hook with the exception type passed
as an argument, and the consumer can signal whether the exception was
handled through the return value. (Right now this still only supports
one consumer, but it could easily be extended to walk through a list of
hooks if the need arises.)
Also move the excepton state from an argument to a global. This avoids a
lot of boilerplate since some consumers need to change the state from
many places, so they would have to pass the same pointer around many
times. It also removes the false suggestion that the exception state was
not global and you could have multiple copies of it (which the exception
core doesn't support for any architecture).
On the ARM side, the exception state is separated from the exception
stack for easier access. (This requires some assembly changes, and I
threw in a few comments and corrected the immediate sigils from '$' to
the official '#' while I'm there.) Since the exception state is now both
stored and loaded through an indirection pointer, this allows for some
very limited reentrance (you could point it to a different struct while
handling an exception, and while you still won't be able to return to
the outer-level exception from there, you could at least swap out the
pointer and return back to System Mode in one go).
BUG=chrome-os-partner:18390
TEST=Made sure normal exceptions still get dumped correctly on both
archs.

libpayload: align arm64 with new exception handling model
The exception handling was previously updated, however the
arm64 changes raced with hat one. Make the arm64 align with
the new model. Without these changes compilation will fail.
BUG=None
BRANCH=None
TEST=Can build libpayload for rush.

To support a GDB stub, it will be necessary to trap various exceptions which
will be used to implement breakpoints, single stepping, etc.
BUG=None
TEST=Built and booted on Link with hooks installed and saw that they
triggered when exceptions occurred. Built and booted on nyan.

This functionality is already available for ARM, so lets add it to x86 as
well. We'll want to be able to hook exceptions when running as a remote GDB
target.
