1c8c30e1f4 hw: sync signal contexts directly as user
Kernel::signal_context_kill can be used by any program to halt the processing
of a signal context synchronously to prevent broken refs when core destructs
the according kernel object. In turn, Kernel::bin_signal_context doesn't block
anymore and destructs a signal context no matter if there are unacknowledged
signals. This way, cores entrypoint doesn't depend on signal acks of a
untrustworthy client anymore.

909ab8dcd0 hw: communicate page faults via signals
Enable routing of thread events to signal contexts via
Kernel::route_thread_event.

Replace Kernel::set_pager by Kernel::route_thread_event.

In base-hw a pager object is a signal context and a pager activation
is a signal receiver. If a thread wants to start communicating its page
faults via a pager object, the thread calls Kernel::route_thread_event with
its thread ID, event ID "FAULT", and the signal context ID of the pager object.
If a pager activation wants to start handling page faults of a pager object,
the pager activation assigns the corresponding signal context to its signal
receiver. If a pager activation wants to stop handling page faults of a pager
object, the pager activation dissolves the corresponding signal context from
its signal receiver. If a thread wants to start communicating its page faults
via a pager object, the thread calls Kernel::route_thread_event with its
thread ID, event ID "FAULT", and the invalid signal context ID.

Remove Kernel::resume_faulter.

Move all page fault related code from generic kernel sources to CPU
specific cpu_support.h and cpu_support.cc.

bb00aebc9e hw & signal: consider initial SLAB blocks
By now Signal_session_component has allocated initial SLAB
blocks in constructor, wich crashed with the root
components assumptions about the RAM quota needs of
session creation. Thus, if the background allocator was already
exhausted from component allocation the session was created
with broken initial SLAB blocks.

cfa0a40d5e base_hw & omap4: USB HID and framebuffer driver.
Implement 'Signal_receiver::pending()'.

Provide display-subsystem MMIO.

Avoid method ambiguousness in 'Irq_context' in
'dde_linux/src/drivers/usb/signal/irq.cc'
(it derives from two list element classes when using 'base_hw').

Enables demo scenario with 'hw_panda_a2'.
