Netlogic XLR chip has multiple cores. Each core includes four integrated
hardware threads, and they share L1 data and instruction caches.
If the chip is marked to be SMT capable, scheduler then could do more, say,
idle load balancing.
Changes are now confined only to the code of XLR, and hardware is probed
to get core ID for correct setup.

Create a common NMI and reset handler in smpboot.S and use this for
both XLR and XLP. In the earlier code, the woken up CPUs would
busy wait until released, switch this to wakeup by NMI.
The initial wakeup code or XLR and XLP are differ since they are
started from different bootloaders (XLP from u-boot and XLR from
netlogic bootloader). But in both platforms the woken up CPUs wait
and are released by sending an NMI.
Add support for starting XLR and XLP in 1/2/4 threads per core.

- Move code that can be shared with XLP (irq.c, smp.c, time.c and
xlr_console.c) to arch/mips/netlogic/common
- Add asm/netlogic/haldefs.h and asm/netlogic/common.h for common and
io functions shared with XLP
- remove type 'nlm_reg_t *' and use uint64_t for mmio offsets
- Move XLR specific code in smp.c to xlr/wakeup.c
- Move XLR specific PCI code from irq.c to mips/pci/pci-xlr.c
- Provide API for pic functions called from common/irq.c

Usage of these flags has been deprecated for nearly 4 years by:

kbuild: introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-y
Moreover, these flags (at least EXTRA_CFLAGS) have been documented for command
line use. By default, gmake(1) do not override command line setting, so this is
likely to result in build failure or unexpected behavior.
Replace their usage by Kbuild's `{as,cc,ld}flags-y'.
