ARM processors save the PC value in the Link Register when they handle
and exception, but they store it with an added offset (depending on the
exception type). In order to make crashes easier to read and correctly
support more complicated handlers in libpayload, this patch adjusts the
saved PC value on exception entry to correct for that offset.
(Note: The value that we now store is what ARM calls the "preferred
return address". For most exceptions this is the faulting instruction,
but for software interrupts (SWI) it is the instruction after that. This
is the way most programs like GDB expect the stored PC address to work,
so let's leave it at that.)
Numbers taken from the Architecture Reference Manual at the end of
section B1.8.3.

BUG=chrome-os-partner:18390
TEST=Provoked a data abort and an undefined instruction in both coreboot
and depthcharge, confirmed that the PC address was spot on.

"Hey guys, I have this awesome idea! How about we put a huge array
filled with 0xa5 into the data segment of our uncompressed romstage
for no particular reason? Give our SPI driver something to do so it
doesn't get too bored, you know?"
Guess it pays off to just hexdump our image and sanity-check it top to
bottom every once in a while...
Also reduces the size because 8K is crazy just to print a bunch of
registers (256 bytes ought to be enough for anybody).

arm: Remove exception_test()
The exception_test() mechanism might have been useful when exceptions
were first implemented, but now that they are pretty stable it's really
not necessary anymore (especially not on every single boot in production
Chromebooks). It forces a simple unaligned access, and as we start
having exceptions in stages that might not have paging turned on yet,
it's better to remove that completely.
Also removed the duplicated implementations of SCTLR-stuff and switched
to the existing ones in cache.h.

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.
