. phys_copy() (taken from memcpy) can legitimately
cause pagefaults below the source/dest address due
to word-alignment

Interrupts where not correctly masked while in kernel, which
breaks one of the current main assumptions.
Also remove some duplication on ARM asm files, and add a function
to check the status of ARM irqs (not compiled by default)

. the total amount of memory in the system didn't include the memory
used by the boot-time modules and some dynamic allocation by the
kernel at boot time (to map in VM). especially apparent on our
ARM board with 'only' 512MB of memory and a huge ramdisk.
. also: *add* the VM loaded module to the freelist after it has
been allocated for & mapped in instead of cutting it *out* of the
freelist! so we get a few more MB free..

. raise(SIGFPE) for modulo-0/divide-0 operations in
internal int division functions
. gcc: do not link with -lgcc anywhere so these internal
functions are always used from libc instead of (sometimes)
masked by -lgcc
. together fixes test53 on ARM

if an exec() fails partway through reading in the sections, the target
process is already gone and a defunct process remains. sanity checking
the binary beforehand helps that.
test10 mutilates binaries and exec()s them on purpose; making an exec()
fail cleanly in such cases seems like acceptable behaviour.
fixes test10 on ARM.

The Cycle CouNTer on ARM cannot be used reliably as it wraps around
rather quickly and can be altered by user space (on Minix). Furthermore,
it's buggy when wrapping and is not implemented at all on the Linaro
Beagleboard emulator.
This patch programs GPTIMER10 as a free running clock at 1.625 MHz (it
doesn't generate interrupts). It's memory mapped into every process,
which enables libsys to provide micro_delay().

A few kernel and calling convention adjustments to make sigsend and
sigreturn work for arm.
. provide a arch_proc_setcontext for earm in kernel
. set LR in context of signal handler to provide a proper
return address (to __sigreturn)
. change __sigreturn to retrieve the sigcontext pointer
from the sigframe struct and pass it to _sigreturn() in r0

Due to the ABI we are using we have to use the earm architecture
moniker for the build system to behave correctly. This involves
then some headers to move around.
There is also a few related Makefile updates as well as minor
source code corrections.
