91f6d98745 kernel: cpu idle: add info about IRQ unlocking in k_cpu_idle
We add a note in k_cpu_idle() documentation, stressing that for
certain architectures. the function unmasks interrupts
unconditionally before returning. In the
documentation of the architecture-specific API (arch_cpu_idle)
we describe the expected behavior with regards to the wake-up
event.

These arch_timing_ defines get used in certain timer

38914679f2 doc: fix ordered lists in doxygen comments
doxygen does not support ordered (numbered) lists using reST syntax
``1)`` or ``a)`` unless the doxygen comments are bounded by ``@rst`` and
``@endrst`` markers.  The "doxygen" way to do ordered lists is to use
``-#``.  This PR cleans this up for our API documentation.

1ae7ae8c0b arch_interface: Remove duplicate irq_offload_routine_t typedef.
This commit removes duplicate 'irq_offload_routine_t' typedef
declaration in sys/arch_interface.h.

This typedef is provided by irq_offload.h and, since this header file
is included at the top of sys/arch_interface.h, it is guaranteed to be
defined for arch_irq_offload definition.

While this does not cause a compilation error when compiling with GCC
4.6 and above, GCC 4.5 and below strictly enforce the C99 standard and
do not allow redeclaration of the same typedef in the same scope.

e09a0255da kernel: sychronize irq_offload() access
Entering irq_offload() on multiple CPUs can cause
difficult to debug/reproduce crashes. Demote irq_offload()
to non-inline (it never needed to be inline anyway) and
wrap the arch call in a semaphore.

Some tests which were unnecessarily killing threads
have been fixed; these threads exit by themselves anyway
and we won't leave the semaphore dangling.

The definition of z_arch_irq_offload() moved to
arch_interface.h as it only gets called by kernel C code.

4f77c2ad53 kernel: rename z_arch_ to arch_
Promote the private z_arch_* namespace, which specifies
the interface between the core kernel and the
architecture code, to a new top-level namespace named
arch_*.

This allows our documentation generation to create
online documentation for this set of interfaces,
and this set of interfaces is worth treating in a
more formal way anyway.

2d7460482d headers: Refactor kernel and arch headers.
This commit refactors kernel and arch headers to establish a boundary
between private and public interface headers.

The refactoring strategy used in this commit is detailed in the issue

This commit introduces the following major changes:

1. Establish a clear boundary between private and public headers by
  removing "kernel/include" and "arch/*/include" from the global
  include paths. Ideally, only kernel/ and arch/*/ source files should
  reference the headers in these directories. If these headers must be
  used by a component, these include paths shall be manually added to
  the CMakeLists.txt file of the component. This is intended to
  discourage applications from including private kernel and arch
  headers either knowingly and unknowingly.

  - kernel/include/ (PRIVATE)
    This directory contains the private headers that provide private
   kernel definitions which should not be visible outside the kernel
   and arch source code. All public kernel definitions must be added
   to an appropriate header located under include/.

  - arch/*/include/ (PRIVATE)
    This directory contains the private headers that provide private
   architecture-specific definitions which should not be visible
   outside the arch and kernel source code. All public architecture-
   specific definitions must be added to an appropriate header located
   under include/arch/*/.

  - include/ AND include/sys/ (PUBLIC)
    This directory contains the public headers that provide public
   kernel definitions which can be referenced by both kernel and
   application code.

  - include/arch/*/ (PUBLIC)
    This directory contains the public headers that provide public
   architecture-specific definitions which can be referenced by both
   kernel and application code.

2. Split arch_interface.h into "kernel-to-arch interface" and "public
  arch interface" divisions.

  - kernel/include/kernel_arch_interface.h
    * provides private "kernel-to-arch interface" definition.
    * includes arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h to ensure that the
     interface function implementations are always available.
    * includes sys/arch_interface.h so that public arch interface
     definitions are automatically included when including this file.

  - arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h
    * provides architecture-specific "kernel-to-arch interface"
     implementation.
    * only the functions that will be used in kernel and arch source
     files are defined here.

  - include/sys/arch_interface.h
    * provides "public arch interface" definition.
    * includes include/arch/arch_inlines.h to ensure that the
     architecture-specific public inline interface function
     implementations are always available.

  - include/arch/arch_inlines.h
    * includes architecture-specific arch_inlines.h in
     include/arch/*/arch_inline.h.

  - include/arch/*/arch_inline.h
    * provides architecture-specific "public arch interface" inline
     function implementation.
    * supersedes include/sys/arch_inline.h.

3. Refactor kernel and the existing architecture implementations.

  - Remove circular dependency of kernel and arch headers. The
   following general rules should be observed:

    * Never include any private headers from public headers
    * Never include kernel_internal.h in kernel_arch_data.h
    * Always include kernel_arch_data.h from kernel_arch_func.h
    * Never include kernel.h from kernel_struct.h either directly or
     indirectly. Only add the kernel structures that must be referenced
     from public arch headers in this file.

  - Relocate syscall_handler.h to include/ so it can be used in the
   public code. This is necessary because many user-mode public codes
   reference the functions defined in this header.

  - Relocate kernel_arch_thread.h to include/arch/*/thread.h. This is
   necessary to provide architecture-specific thread definition for
   'struct k_thread' in kernel.h.

  - Remove any private header dependencies from public headers using
   the following methods:

    * If dependency is not required, simply omit
    * If dependency is required,
      - Relocate a portion of the required dependencies from the
       private header to an appropriate public header OR
      - Relocate the required private header to make it public.

8ffff144ea kernel: add architecture interface headers
include/sys/arch_inlines.h will contain all architecture APIs
that are used by public inline functions and macros,
with implementations deriving from include/arch/cpu.h.

kernel/include/arch_interface.h will contain everything
else, with implementations deriving from
arch/*/include/kernel_arch_func.h.

Instances of duplicate documentation for these APIs have been
removed; implementation details have been left in place.
