Fix elf_core_dump() when writing arch specific notes (spu coredumps)
elf_core_dump() supports dumping arch specific ELF notes, via the #define
ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES. Currently the only user of this is the powerpc
spu coredump code.
There is a bug in the handling of foffset WRT the arch notes, which causes
us to erroneously increment foffset by the size of the arch notes, leaving
a block of zeroes in the file, and causing all subsequent data in the file
to be at <supposed position> + <arch note size>. eg:
LOAD 0x050000 0x00100000 0x00000000 0x20000 0x20000 R E 0x10000
Tells us we should have a chunk of data at 0x50000. The truth is the data
is at 0x90dbc = 0x50000 + 0x40dbc (the size of the arch notes).
This bug prevents gdb from reading the core file correctly.
The simplest fix is to simply remember the size of the arch notes, and add
it to foffset after we've written the arch notes. The only drawback is
that if the arch code doesn't write as many bytes as it said it would, we
end up with a broken core dump again. For now I think that's a reasonable
requirement.
Tested on a Cell blade, gdb no longer complains about the core file being
bogus.
While I'm here I should point out that the spu coredump code does not work
if we're dumping to a pipe - we'll have to wait for 23 to fix that.

[MIPS] Fix scheduling latency issue on 24K, 34K and 74K cores
The idle loop goes to sleep using the WAIT instruction if !need_resched().
This has is suffering from from a race condition that if if just after
need_resched has returned 0 an interrupt might set TIF_NEED_RESCHED but
we've just completed the test so go to sleep anyway. This would be
trivial to fix by just disabling interrupts during that sequence as in:
local_irq_disable();
if (!need_resched())
__asm__("wait");
local_irq_enable();
but the processor architecture leaves it undefined if a processor calling
WAIT with interrupts disabled will ever restart its pipeline and indeed
some processors have made use of the freedom provided by the architecture
definition. This has been resolved and the Config7.WII bit indicates that
the use of WAIT is safe on 24K, 24KE and 34K cores. It also is safe on
74K starting revision 2.1.0 so enable the use of WAIT with interrupts
disabled for 74K based on a c0_prid of at least that.
Older processors used to encode processor version and revision in two
4-bit bitfields, the 4K seems to simply count up and even newer MTI cores
have switched to use the 8-bits as 3:3:2 bitfield with the last field as
the patch number.
The RM7000 processors and the E9000 cores have a bug (though PMC-Sierra
opposes it being called that) where invalid instructions in the same
I-cache line worth of instructions being fetched may case spurious
exceptions.
The workaround for this was only enabled for E9000 cores; enable it also
for all RM7000-based platforms.
