MIPS: Add generic CM probe & access code
The kernel currently only probes for a MIPS Coherence Manager in the Malta interrupt code in order to detect & enable the GIC. However CM is not Malta-specific, so this should really be more generic. This patch introduces some non-Malta-specific code which probes for a CM and performs some basic initialisation. A new header, with temporarily duplicated register definitions, is introduced in order to: 1) Allow the new definitions to be correct with regards to the CM documentation, as many of those in gcmpregs.h aren't. 2) Allow switching away from the REG() macro used via a few layers of nested macros in order to access registers in gcmpregs.h. This patch instead introduced accessor functions akin to the {read,write}_c0_* functions used for cop0 registers. 3) Allow users of the CM to be migrated one by one. 4) Switch from the name 'GCMP' to 'CM' since the Coherence Manager is what this code is actually dealing with.
