Define the central place the default FCSR value is set from, initialised
in `cpu_probe'. Determine the FCSR mask applied to values written to
the register with CTC1 in the full emulation mode and via ptrace(2),
according to the ISA level of processor hardware or the writability of
bits 31:18 if actual FPU hardware is used.
Software may rely on FCSR bits whose functions our emulator does not
implement, so it should not allow them to be set or software may get
confused. For ptrace(2) it's just sanity.

Feature macros such as `cpu_has_mips_r' cannot be used here, because
they operate on CPU #0 and we want to refer to the current CPU instead.
They cannot be used for masking against the current CPU either because
they mask against CPU #0 too, e.g.:

Rework `process_fpemu_return' and move IEEE 754 exception interpretation
there, from `do_fpe'. Record the cause bits set in FCSR before they are
cleared and pass them through to `process_fpemu_return' so as to set
`si_code' correctly too for SIGFPE signals sent from emulation rather
than those issued by hardware with the FPE processor exception only.
For simplicity `mipsr2_decoder' assumes `*fcr31' has been preinitialised
and only sets it to anything if an FPU instruction has been emulated,
which in turn is the only case SIGFPE can be issued for here.

On certain cores (namely proAptiv and P5600) incoming data via a Fast
Debug Channel (FDC) while the core is blocked on a wait instruction will
cause the wait not to wake up even when another interrupt is received.
This makes an idle target stop as soon as you send FDC data to it, until
the debug probe interrupts it and restarts the wait instruction.
This is worked around by avoiding using r4k_wait on these cores if
CONFIG_MIPS_EJTAG_FDC_TTY is enabled (which would imply the user intends
to use the FDC).

Before release 2 of the architecture there weren't separate interrupt
pending bits for the local CPU interrupts (timer & perf counter
overflow), so when they were connected to the same interrupt line the
timer handler had to call the performance counter handler before knowing
whether a timer interrupt was actually pending.
Now another CPU local interrupt, for the Fast Debug Channel (FDC), can
also be routed to an arbitrary interrupt line. It isn't scalable to keep
adding cross-calls between handlers for these cases of shared interrupt
lines, especially since the FDC could in theory share its interrupt line
with the performance counter, timer, or both.
Fortunately since release 2 of the architecture separate interrupt
pending bits do exist in the Cause register. This allows local
interrupts which share an interrupt line to have separate handlers using
IRQF_SHARED. Unfortunately they can't easily have their own irqchip as
there is no generic way to individually mask them.
Enable this sharing to happen by removing the special case for when the
perf count shares an IRQ with the timer. cp0_perfcount_irq and
cp0_compare_irq can then be set to the same value with shared interrupt
handlers registered for both of them.
Pre-R2 code should be unaffected. cp0_perfcount_irq will always be -1
and the timer handler will contnue to call into the perf counter
handler.

When requesting the performance counter overflow interrupt, pass flags
which are compatible with the cevt-r4k driver, in particular
IRQF_SHARED so that the two handlers can share the same IRQ. This is
possible since release 2 of the architecture where there are separate
pending interrupt bits for the timer interrupt and the performance
counter interrupt.
This will be necessary since the FDC interrupt can also be arbitrarily
routed to a CPU interrupt, possibly sharing with the timer, the
performance counters, or both, and it isn't scalable to have all the
handlers able to call other handlers that may be on the same IRQ line.
Shared handlers must also have a unique device pointer so they can be
individually removed, so &mipspmu is now passed in for that instead of
NULL.

using PTRACE_POKEUSR, PTRACE_SETFPREGS or PTRACE_SETREGSET then that
context will be discarded upon either the ptracee using the FPU or a
further write to the context via ptrace. Prevent this loss by recording
that the task has "used" math once its FP context has been written to.

When running the emulator to handle an instruction that raised an FP
unimplemented operation exception, the FCSR cause bits were being
cleared. This is done to ensure that the kernel does not take an FP
exception when later restoring FP context to registers. However, this
was not being done when the emulator is invoked in response to a
coprocessor unusable exception. This happens in 2 cases:
- There is no FPU present in the system. In this case things were
OK, since the FP context is never restored to hardware registers
and thus no FP exception may be raised when restoring FCSR.
- The FPU could not be configured to the mode required by the task.
In this case it would be possible for the emulator to set cause
bits which are later restored to hardware if the task migrates
to a CPU whose associated FPU does support its mode requirements,
or if the tasks FP mode requirements change.
Consistently clear the cause bits after invoking the emulator, by moving
the clearing to process_fpemu_return and ensuring this is always called
before the tasks FP context is restored. This will make it easier to
catch further paths invoking the emulator in future, as will be
introduced in further patches.

Much like for traditional scalar FP exceptions, the cause bits in the
MSACSR register need to be cleared following an MSA FP exception.
Without doing so the exception will simply be raised again whenever
the kernel restores MSACSR from a tasks saved context, leading to
undesirable spurious exceptions. Clear the cause bits from the
handle_msa_fpe function, mirroring the way handle_fpe clears the
cause bits in FCSR.
