f4c01f1508 Instead of using sysarch() to store-retrieve the tp, add a magic address,
ARM_TP_ADDRESS, where the tp will be stored. On CPUs that support it, a cache
line will be allocated and locked for this address, so that it will never go
to RAM. On CPUs that does not, a page is allocated for it (it will be a bit
slower, and is wrong for SMP, but should be fine for UP).
The tp is still stored in the mdthread struct, and at each context switch,
ARM_TP_ADDRESS gets updated.

6fc729af63 Import FreeBSD/arm kernel bits.
It only supports sa1110 (on simics) right now, but xscale support should come
soon.
Some of the initial work has been provided by :
Stephane Potvin <sepotvin at videotron.ca>
Most of this comes from NetBSD.
