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.

/*
|
|
* This is used by some architectures to define code ranges which may
|
|
* perform operations that could generate a CPU exception that should not
|
|
* be fatal. Instead, the exception should return but set the program
|
|
* counter to a 'fixup' memory address which will gracefully error out.
|
|
*
|
|
* For example, in the case where user mode passes in a C string via
|
|
* system call, the length of that string needs to be measured. A specially
|
|
* written assembly language version of strlen (arch_user_string_len)
|
|
* defines start and end symbols where the memory in the string is examined;
|
|
* if this generates a fault, jumping to the fixup symbol within the same
|
|
* function will return an error result to the caller.
|
|
*
|
|
* To ensure precise control of the state of registers and the stack pointer,
|
|
* these functions need to be written in assembly.
|
|
*
|
|
* The arch-specific fault handling code will define an array of these
|
|
* z_exc_handle structures and return from the exception with the PC updated
|
|
* to the fixup address if a match is found.
