3 out of 4 architectures currently zero out the payload BSS in early
assembly code, which is pointless since the code loading the payload has
already done that (with a more efficient memset). ARM64 has never had
any code like this and can run just fine without it. This also defeats
the new optimization of moving the heap out of the BSS, since all three
implementations assume that everything between _edata and _end is BSS.
We should just take this out.

This adds some assembly code to clear .bss segment. It might have been
already cleared by the loader, but it is not guaranteed. This also
helps when the program is loaded by the debugger.
BUG=none
TEST=observed that .bss is now initialized when the program is
restarted. Verified correct boundaries of the segment.

To find the coreboot tables, the payload has historically searched for their
signature in a predefined region of memory. This is a little clumsy on x86,
but it works because you can assume certain regions are RAM. Also, there are
areas which are set aside for the firmware by convention. On x86 there's a
forwarding entry which goes in one of those fairly small conventional areas
and which points to the CBMEM area at the end of memory.
On ARM there aren't areas like that, so we've left out the forwarding entry and
gone directly to CBMEM. RAM may not start at the beginning of the address space
or go to its end, and that means there isn't really anywhere fixed you can put
the coreboot tables. That's meant that libpayload has to be configured on a
per board basis to know where to look for CBMEM.
Now that we have boards that don't have fixed amounts of memory, the location
of the end of RAM isn't fixed even on a per board level which means even that
workaround will no longer cut it.
This change makes coreboot pass the location of the coreboot tables to
libpayload using r0, the first argument register. That means we'll be able to
find them no matter where CBMEM is, and we can get rid of the per board search
ranges.
We can extend this mechanism to x86 as well, but there may be more
complications and it's less necessary there. It would be a good thing to do
eventually though.
BUG=None
TEST=Built and booted on nyan. Changed the size of memory and saw that the
payload could still find the coreboot tables where before it couldn't. Built
for pit, snow, and big.
BRANCH=None

This patch changes the ENTRY() macro in asm.h to create a new section
for every assembler function, thus providing dcache_clean/invalidate_all
and friends with the same --gc-sections goodness that our C functions
have. This requires a few minor changes of moving around data (to make
sure it ends up in the right section) and changing some libgcc functions
(which apparently need to have two names?), but nothing serious.
(You may note that some of our assembly functions have data, sometimes
even writable, within the same .text section. This has been this way
before and I'm not looking to change it for now, although it's not
totally clean. Since we don't enforce read-only sections through paging,
it doesn't really hurt.)
BUG=None
TEST=Nyan and Snow still boot. Confirm dcache_invalidate_all is not
output into any binary anymore since no one actually uses it.

There are ARM systems which are essentially heterogeneous multicores where
some cores implement a different ARM architecture version than other cores. A
specific example is the tegra124 which boots on an ARMv4 coprocessor while
most code, including most of the firmware, runs on the main ARMv7 core. To
support SOCs like this, the plan is to generalize the ARM architecture so that
all versions are available, and an SOC/CPU can then select what architecture
variant should be used for each component of the firmware; bootblock,
romstage, and ramstage.

ARM: Split out ARMv7 code and make it possible to have other arch versions.
We don't always want to use ARMv7 code when building for ARM, so we should
separate out the ARMv7 code so it can be excluded, and also make it possible
to include code for some other version of the architecture instead, all per
build component for cases where we need more than one architecture version
at a time.
The tegra124 bootblock will ultimately need to be ARMv4, but until we have
some ARMv4 code to switch over to we can leave it set to ARMv7.
