libpayload: Rework exception hook interface
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.
