Vineet Gupta 72d861f2d2 ARC: boot log: eliminate struct cpuinfo_arc #1: mm
This is first step in eliminating struct cpuinfo_arc[NR_CPUS]

Back when we had just ARCompact ISA, the idea was to read/bit-fiddle
the BCRs once and and cache decoded information in a global struct ready
to use.

With ARCv2 it was modified to contained abstract / ISA agnostic
information.

However with ARCv3 there 's too much disparity to abstract in common
structures. So drop the entire decode once and store paradigm. Afterall
there's only 2 users of this machinery anyways:  boot printing and
cat /proc/cpuinfo. None is performance critical to warrant locking away
resident memory per cpu.

This patch is first step in that direction
 - decouples struct cpuinfo_arc_mmu from global struct cpuinfo_arc
 - mmu code still has a trimmed down static version of
   struct cpuinfo_arc_mmu to cache information needed in performance
   critical code such as tlb flush routines
 - folds read_decode_mmu_bcr() into arc_mmu_mumbojumbo()
 - setup_processor() directly calls arc_mmu_init() and not via
   arc_cpu_init()
