arm_core_mpu.h and arm_core_mpu.c defined and implement kernel
APIs for memory protection, respectively. Therefore, they do not
need to directly include ARM CMSIS headers, or arm_mpu.h (or
nxp_mpu.h) which are supposed to define MPU-related kernel types
and convenience macros for the specific MPU architecture. These
headers are indirectly included by including kernel.h.
Similarly, arm_mpu.h shall not need to include internal/external
headers of memory protection APIs.

This commit does the following:
- it introduces additional convenience macros for representing
MPU attributions for no-cacheability, in both ARMv7-M and
ARMv8-M MPU architectures,
- it adds documentation in K_MEM_PARTITION_IS_WRITABLE/CACHEABLE
macros in all macro definitions in the different MPU variants
- it moves the type definition of k_mem_partition_attr_t inside
the architecture-specific MPU headers, so it can be defined
per-architecture. It generalizes app_mem_domain.h, to be able
to work with _any_ (struct) type of k_mem_partition_attr_t.
- it refactors the type of k_mem_partition_attr_t for ARMv8-M
to comply with the MPU register API.
- for NXP MPU, the commit moves the macros for region access
permissions' attributes inside nxp_mpu.h, to align with what
we do for ARM MPU.

This commit exposes k_mem_partition_attr_t outside User Mode, so
we can use struct k_mem_partition for defining memory partitions
outside the scope of user space (for example, to describe thread
stack guards or no-cacheable MPU regions). A requirement is that
the Zephyr build supports Memory protection. To signify this, a
new hidden, all-architecture Kconfig symbol is defined (MPU). In
the wake of exposing k_mem_partition_attr_t, the commit exposes
the MPU architecture-specific access permission attribute macros
outside the User space context (for all ARCHs), so they can be
used in a more generic way.

Some toolchains are built with multilib enabled in order to provide
multiple versions of the same library, optimized for different ABI
or architecture. They require the -march= and -mabi= options to be
passed at link time. This is important for example when linking with
newlib.
We do that by passing zephyr_ld_options the same arguments than
zephyr_compile_options. The -mabi option is passed directly while the
-march option, if defined, is passed through ${ARCH_FLAG}.

Add a "nocache" read-write memory section that is configured to
not be cached. This memory section can be used to perform DMA
transfers when cache coherence issues are not optimal or can not
be solved using cache maintenance operations.
This is currently only supported on ARM Cortex M7 with MPU.

These changes were obtained by running a script created by
Ulf Magnusson <Ulf.Magnusson@nordicsemi.no> for the following
specification:
1. Read the contents of all dts_fixup.h files in Zephyr
2. Check the left-hand side of the #define macros (i.e. the X in
#define X Y)
3. Check if that name is also the name of a Kconfig option
3.a If it is, then do nothing
3.b If it is not, then replace CONFIG_ with DT_ or add DT_ if it
has neither of these two prefixes
4. Replace the use of the changed #define in the code itself
(.c, .h, .ld)
Additionally, some tweaks had to be added to this script to catch some
of the macros used in the code in a parameterized form, e.g.:
- CONFIG_GPIO_STM32_GPIO##__SUFFIX##_BASE_ADDRESS
- CONFIG_UART_##idx##_TX_PIN
- I2C_SBCON_##_num##_BASE_ADDR
and to prevent adding DT_ prefix to the following symbols:
- FLASH_START
- FLASH_SIZE
- SRAM_START
- SRAM_SIZE
- _ROM_ADDR
- _ROM_SIZE
- _RAM_ADDR
- _RAM_SIZE
which are surprisingly also defined in some dts_fixup.h files.
Finally, some manual corrections had to be done as well:
- name##_IRQ -> DT_##name##_IRQ in uart_stm32.c

The ARMv8-M Memory Protection Unit document indicates that a DMB
instruction must be used before disabling the MPU in order to force
outstanding memory transactions.
The ARMv7-M documentation is less clear about that, and only specifies
that a DSB instruction followed by a ISB instruction must be used
before enabling the MPU, which is already the case. The ARMv7-M and
ARMv8-M MPU are relatively similar to believe the same sequence should
be used for disabling it.
This patch therefore adds a DMB instruction before disabling the MPU.

In Zephyr on Cortex-M SoCs with both the ARM MPU and the cache enabled,
there are 3 possible states and associated configuration for the RAM
cache attributes:
- MPU disabled WBWA non-shareable
- MPU enabled, background RAM region WBWA non-shareable
- MPU enabled, thread RAM region WBWA shareable
In practice this means than the thread RAM region toggles from
shareable to non-shareable on each context change.
However the Cortex-M7 SoC does not support the WBWA shareable
configuration and fallback to simpler caching configuration. The
Technical Reference Manual states:
"By default, only Normal, Non-shareable memory regions can be cached
in the RAMs. Caching only takes place if the appropriate cache is
enabled and the memory type is cacheable. Shared cacheable memory
regions can be cached if CACR.SIWT is set to 1."
Similar indications can be found in the documentation from various
vendors: ST (AN4838), NXP (AN12042) and Atmel (AN15679).
It means that the thread RAM regions are either not cached (CACR.SIWT=0,
default) or WBWT cached (CACR.SIWT=1). This causes a performance issue.
In addition before switching a region from cached to non-cached and
vice-versa, the existing MPU code does not perform cache clean and/or
invalidate operations. This might cause data loss or corruption.
We should therefore change the RAM cache attributes to make them always
consistent. This patches change the thread/application RAM region from
WBWA shareable to WBWA non-shareable. This is done for all ARMv7-M SoCs
with an ARM MPU, however other SoCs (M0+, M3, M4) do not have cache, so
their behaviour should be unchanged.

'b' can't jump very far on Cortex-M0 and will cause linker issues when
isr_wrapper and _IntExit are placed far away from each other.
To resolve this we use the 'bx' instruction, as it can jump much
further. Using 'bx' is not dangerous because we are jumping to thumb
mode code.

requirement, we need to increase the size of the MPU region

MPUs with power-of-two size requirement will, anyway, round
up the region size to the next power of two.

Instead of checking every time we hit the low-level context switch
path to see if the new thread has a "partner" with which it needs to
share time, just run the slice timer always and reset it from the
scheduler at the points where it has already decided a switch needs to
happen. In TICKLESS_KERNEL situations, we pay the cost of extra timer
interrupts at ~10Hz or whatever, which is low (note also that this
kind of regular wakeup architecture is required on SMP anyway so the
scheduler can "notice" threads scheduled by other CPUs). Advantages:
1. Much simpler logic. Significantly smaller code. No variance or
dependence on tickless modes or timer driver (beyond setting a
simple timeout).
2. No arch-specific assembly integration with _Swap() needed
3. Better performance on many workloads, as the accounting now happens
at most once per timer interrupt (~5 Hz) and true rescheduling and
not on every unrelated context switch and interrupt return.
4. It's SMP-safe. The previous scheme kept the slice ticks as a
global variable, which was an unnoticed bug.

Before entering userspace, the MPU stack guard is
configured to guard the default (i.e. afterwards, the "user")
thread stack, as the privileged stack has not yet been set. Upon
entering userspace the MPU stack guard needs to be re-programmed
to the privileged stack, otherwise, there is a risk that the
first system call might be serviced without privileged stack
protection, if it occurs before any context-switch. This commit
fixes this issue, by calling configure_mpu_stack_guard(..) upon
userspace entering.

The __reset vector is using the 'b' instruction to jump to _PrepC. 'b'
can only jump 2KB on Cortex-M0 platforms so this causes build failures
when _PrepC happens to be too far away from __reset.
To resolve this we use 'bl' instead as it can jump two thousand times
further[0].
This can also be resolved by porting the reset vector to C or by
placing the _PrepC function in a dedicated section that the linker
places next to __reset.
