[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/4] ARC: Add support for generic HS48 processor

[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Vineet, All,

On 2021-01-15 12:03 -0800, Vineet Gupta spake thusly:
> For the HS48 processor, BR currently builds with -mcpu=hs4x_rel31 which
> generates suboptimal code as it inhibits delay slot and back-back ST and so on.
> 
> Enable a new variant to build with -mcpu=hs4x for normal codegen.

Those started to be rather long lines, so I split them.

Ditto.

In fact, the only variant that does not have 4K pages is 750d, so I
inverted the logic to:

    depends on !BR2_arc750d

So the lines are not too long anymore.

If the situation becones more complex than that, then we could introduce
intermediate symbols, like;

    config BR2_ARC_HAS_4K_PAGES
        bool

which could then be selected by the variants that do have it, e.g.:

    config BR2_archs4x
        bool "ARC HS48"
        select BR2_ARC_HAS_4K_PAGES

and then the 4K choice would depend on it;

    config BR2_ARC_PAGE_SIZE_4K
        bool "4KB"
        depends on BR2_ARC_HAS_4K_PAGES

I was about to do that, but if 750d is definitely the only variant to
not support those 4K or 16K pages, this would be overkill...

Ditto.
