Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
- in mcontext_t, rename newer used 'union __vfp' to equaly sized 'mc_spare'.
Space allocated by 'union __vfp' is too small and cannot hold full
VFP context.
- move structures defined in fp.h to more appropriate headers.
- remove all unused VFP structures.

enabled. In vfp_discard(), if the state in the VFP hardware belongs to
the thread which is dying, NULL out pcpu fpcurthread to indicate the
state currently in the hardware belongs to nobody.

Pointy hat to: me
The old code was full of complexity that would only matter if the
kernel itself used the VFP hardware. Now that's reduced to either killing
the userland process or panicking the kernel on an illegal VFP instruction.
This removes most of the complexity from the assembler code, reducing it
to just calling the save code if the outgoing thread used the VFP.
The routine that stores the VFP state now takes a flag that indicates
whether the hardware should be disabled after saving state. Right now it
always is, but this makes the code ready to be used by get/set_mcontext()
(doing so will be addressed in a future commit).
Remove the arm-specific pc_vfpcthread from struct pcpu and use the MI
field pc_fpcurthread instead.

check which variant we are on, and if it is a VFPv3 or v4, and has 32
double registers we save these. This fixes VFP support on Raspberry Pi.
While here clean fmrx and fmxr up to use the register names from vfp.h
as opposed to the raw register names.
Cummulative patch of changes that are not vendor-specific:
- ARMv6 and ARMv7 architecture support
- ARM SMP support
- VFP/Neon support
- ARM Generic Interrupt Controller driver
- Simplification of startup code for all platforms
