Pull arch signal handling cleanup from Richard Weinberger:
"This patch series moves all remaining archs to the get_signal(),
signal_setup_done() and sigsp() functions.
Currently these archs use open coded variants of the said functions.
Further, unused parameters get removed from get_signal_to_deliver(),
tracehook_signal_handler() and signal_delivered().
At the end of the day we save around 500 lines of code."

Hardware keeps them enabled on reset, and Linux needs to keep status quo.
Any spurious interrupts will be reported/blocked by genirq.
This helps remove a SMP IRQ quirk (next commit), where a peripheral IRQ
is hard wired to core0, and request_irq()->unmask() happens on core1,
keeping the IRQ masked on core0, needing an explicit unmask.

The current cpu-private IRQ registration is ugly as it requires need to
expose arch_unmask_irq() outside of intc code.
So switch to percpu IRQ APIs:
-request_percpu_irq [boot core]
-enable_percpu_irq [all cores]
Encapsulated in helper arc_request_percpu_irq()

Handle it just like timer. Current request_percpu_irq() would fail on
non-boot cpus and thus IRQ will remian unmasked on those cpus.

Performing vma lookups without taking the mm->mmap_sem is asking for
trouble. While doing the search, the vma in question can be modified or
even removed before returning to the caller. Take the lock (shared) in
order to avoid races while iterating through the vmacache and/or rbtree.

There was a very small race window where resume to kernel mode from a
Exception Path (or pure kernel mode which is true for most of ARC
exceptions anyways), was not disabling interrupts in restore_regs,
clobbering the exception regs
Anton found the culprit call flow (after many sleepless nights)
| 1. we got a Trap from user land
| 2. started to service it.
| 3. While doing some stuff on user-land memory (I think it is padzero()),
| we got a DataTlbMiss
| 4. On return from it we are taking "resume_kernel_mode" path
| 5. NEED_RESHED is not set, so we go to "return from exception" path in
| restore regs.
| 6. there seems to be IRQ happening
