To support multiple TC microthreads acting as "CPUs" within a VPE,
VPE-wide interrupt mask bits must be specially manipulated during
interrupt handling. To support legacy drivers and interrupt controller
management code, SMTC has a "backstop" to track and if necessary restore
the interrupt mask. This has some performance impact on interrupt service
overhead. Disable it only if you know what you are doing.

Check the IEP bit for R3000 style processors when checking to see if
interrupts will be reenabled in restore_all.

When CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set, it also moves one branch instruction from
ret_from_irq() to ret_from_exception(). Therefore we favour the return
from irq case which should be more common than the other one.

Make sure that RA on top of interrupt stack is an address of ret_from_irq,
so that dump_stack etc. can trace info interrupted context.
Also this patch fixes except_vec_vi_handler and __smtc_ipi_vector which
seems broken.

cleanup: remove task_t and convert all the uses to struct task_struct. I
introduced it for the scheduler anno and it was a mistake.
Conversion was mostly scripted, the result was reviewed and all
secondary whitespace and style impact (if any) was fixed up by hand.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
