In smp_rendezvous_cpus we expect to wait for all cpus to enter
smp_rendezvous_action. If we call this holding a proc lock swapper may
attempt to also lock it, however as interrupts are disabled the cpu never
handles the ipi. Because smp_rendezvous_action waits for all signaled
cpus before contining it may get caught waiting for the cpu running swapper
as the proc mutex will be unlocked after smp_rendezvous_cpus finishes.
The fix is to enable interrupts in the configure stage as we should be
doing.

This is based on the patch sent by Alexander Fedorov with the following
fixes/improvements:
- Better error handling;
- Clock is derived from PLL6 (obtained from netbsd);
- No more unnecessary busy loops on interrupt handler;
- style(9) fixes and code cleanup.
I also want to thanks Martin Galvan who has sent an alternative
implementation with some interesting fixes.
Tested on CubieBoard2, Banana-Pi (thanks to netgate!) and Cubieboard1

This is intended to pave the way for the upcoming GSoC work (and make

1. Align to a 64-bit address so 64-bit data will be correctly aligned.
2. Add a comment explaining why.
3. Remove an unneeded value from the struct.
This fixes an issue where the struct may not be correctly aligned on the
stack in the syscall function. This may lead to accesing a 64-bit value
at a non 64-bit. This will raise an exception and panic the kernel.
We have been lucky where on arm and armv6 both clang and gcc correctly
align the data, even without us asking to, however, on armeb with clang to
not be the case. This tells the compiler we really do need this to be
aligned.

that is no longer true; all metadata has already been adjusted to vitual

I can't track down the exact revision in loader where a change from physical
to virtual metadata addresses happened. The code involved is very twisty
and complicated. I suspect the change was an unintended consequence of the

o write-back caching was totally broken. write-through caching

The Alpine Platform-On-Chip offers multicore processing
(quad ARM Cortex-A15), 1/10Gb Ethernet, SATA 3, PCI-E 3,
DMA engines, Virtualization, Advanced Power Management and other.
This code drop involves basic platform support including:
SMP, IRQs, SerDes, SATA. As of now it is missing the PCIe support.
Part of the functionality is provided by the low-level code (HAL)
delivered by the chip vendor (Annapurna Labs) and is a subject to
change in the future (is planned to be moved to sys/contrib directory).

This as been tested with a Thumb-2 userland, however building one is
currently unsupported as there are known toolchain issues breaking some
binaries. Further work will also be needed to decide on the method of
selecting which instruction set to build for, and to benchmark both to
