659f6ff5c8 hw_vea9x4: quickfix for missing SMP awareness
This fix configures TTBRs and translation-table descriptors as if we would use
SMP although we don't to circumvent problems with UP-configurations.
This fix should be superseded later by full SMP support for the VEA9X4.

d31492040c hw: fix race on pager-object dissolve
The HW-kernel, in contrast to other kernels, provides a direct reference
to the pager object with the fault signal that is send to the pager
activation. When accessing this reference directly we may fall into the
time span where the root parent-entrypoint of the faulter has alredy
dissolved the pager object from the pager entrypoint, but not yet
silenced the according signal context.  To avoid this we issue an
additional 'lookup_and_lock' with the received pager object. This isn't
optimal as we don't need the potentially cost-intensive lookup but only the
synchronization.

Fixes #1311.

fa0f7c0d6d wifi_drv: enable support for iwl7260
- essential support for 7260 chipset and DMA fixes
- assign mvm->pm_ops at beginning of function iwl_op_mode_mvm_start.
  iwl_mvm_mac_setup_register() uses mvm->pm_ops, but it is called
  before this field is set to a valid value.
- disable call to function iwl_mvm_prepare_multicast.
  This function leads to a pagefault, as it aspects a list of multicast
  addresses, but the list is empty as it is not generated by this port.

d704563453 hw: helping on IPC
On base-hw, each thread owns exactly one scheduling context for its
whole lifetime. However, introducing helping on IPC, a thread might get
executed on scheduling contexts that it doesn't own. Figuratively
spoken, the IPC-helping relation spans trees between threads. These
trees are identical to those of the IPC relation between threads. The
root of such a tree is executed on all scheduling contexts in the tree.
All other threads in the tree are not executed on any scheduling context
as long as they remain in this position. Consequently, the ready-state
of all scheduling contexts in an IPC-helping tree always equals the
state of the root context.

6370b6880a hw: rename Thread::State SCHEDULED in ACTIVE
As soon as helping is used, a thread may also be in a blocking state when its
scheduling context is ready. Hence, the state designation SCHEDULED for an active
thread would be pretty misleading.

4c7a5bb388 wifi_drv: call schedule() in sleep functions
The jiffies are only updated on each round of scheduling the runnable
tasks. We have to schedule the current task that executes the sleep
call to update the jiffies count and thereby preventing the task from
entering an endless loop when using a statement like
'while (!time_after(jiffies, now + timeout)) { msleep(1); }'.

3367fd27e4 run: avoid buffering of output for expect
Due to commit "run: relax IP power plug recognition + serial EOF",
when piping the serial command through 'tr', some characters might
get buffered, thereby preventing some run scripts to finish correctly.
This commit removes the 'tr' hack. Instead, to circumvent the 'expect'
problem, which kills under special conditions spawned childs used to
obtain serial line content, whenever EOF of the serial command is
recognized during the boot phase, the child process gets re-spawned.

a9a6e8df89 foc: relax parsing of boot process termination
Until now, the successful termination of the boot process was recognized
when 'expect' saw the first L4 bootstrapper output on serial line. On sytems
with initially shaky serial connection like Versatile Express, where the serial
line baudrate changes with the bootstrapper initialization, the first expected
line might be missing. Therefore, change the expected line to the first
Fiasco.OC kernel output.

726c32e5f6 run: relax IP power plug recognition + serial EOF
* To communicate with IP power plug devices from Koukaam, to remote
  control power supply of test boards, don't parse minor versions, but
  support different IP power plugs
* TCL's expect may report an EOF when reading from the spawned serial
  terminal, especially when using 'socat' to stream serial over TCP/IP,
  although the spawned child is still running and delivering content.
  This problem is clearly not dependent on the characters send, but
  possibly due to strange pipe signals. When piping the serial output
  through 'tr' the problem vanishs.

9c0ced0a85 ldso: add __L4_ThreadSwitch to ldso symbol.map
This wasn't necessary before because we built an l4 library for
Pistachio and linked it against each application. With the new linker,
we compile the required files from within Genode and create a syscall
library that is only linked to ldso. If a program uses system calls
directly, for example, DDE kit's spinlock implementation, the required
symbols must be made globally accessible.

8f9355b360 thread API & CPU session: accounting of CPU quota
In the init configuration one can configure the donation of CPU time via
'resource' tags that have the attribute 'name' set to "CPU" and the
attribute 'quantum' set to the percentage of CPU quota that init shall
donate. The pattern is the same as when donating RAM quota.

! <start name="test">
!   <resource name="CPU" quantum="75"/>
! </start>

This would cause init to try donating 75% of its CPU quota to the child
"test".  Init and core do not preserve CPU quota for their own
requirements by default as it is done with RAM quota.

The CPU quota that a process owns can be applied through the thread
constructor. The constructor has been enhanced by an argument that
indicates the percentage of the programs CPU quota that shall be granted
to the new thread. So 'Thread(33, "test")' would cause the backing CPU
session to try to grant 33% of the programs CPU quota to the thread
"test". By now, the CPU quota of a thread can't be altered after
construction. Constructing a thread with CPU quota 0 doesn't mean the
thread gets never scheduled but that the thread has no guaranty to receive
CPU time. Such threads have to live with excess CPU time.

Threads that already existed in the official repositories of Genode were
adapted in the way that they receive a quota of 0.

This commit also provides a run test 'cpu_quota' in base-hw (the only
kernel that applies the CPU-quota scheme currently). The test basically
runs three threads with different physical CPU quota. The threads simply
count for 30 seconds each and the test then checks wether the counter
values relate to the CPU-quota distribution.
