This commit fixes the following issues regarding cache maintainance under ARM: * read out I-, and D-cache line size at runtime and use the correct one * remove 'update_data_region' call from unprivileged syscalls * rename 'update_instr_region' syscall to 'cache_coherent_region' to reflect what it doing, namely make I-, and D-cache coherent * restrict 'cache_coherent_region' syscall to one page at a time * lookup the region given in a 'cache_coherent_region' syscall in the page-table of the PD to prevent machine exceptions in the kernel * only clean D-cache lines, do not invalidate them when pages where added on Cortex-A8 and ARMv6 (MMU sees phys. memory here) * remove unused code relicts of cache maintainance In addition it introduces per architecture memory clearance functions used by core, when preparing new dataspaces. Thereby, it optimizes: * on ARMv7 using per-word assignments * on ARMv8 using cacheline zeroing * on x86_64 using 'rept stosq' assembler instruction Fix #3685 |

This is generic part of the Genode implementation. It consists of two parts: :_Core_: is the ultimate root of the Genode application tree and provides abstractions for the lowest-level hardware resources such as RAM, ROM, CPU, and generic device access. All generic parts of Core can be found here - for system-specific implementations refer to the appropriate 'base-<system>' directory. :_Base libraries and protocols_: that are used by each Genode component to interact with other components. This is the glue that holds everything together. _Core_ may export information about the hardware platform by an ROM called 'platform_info'. Depending on the platform, e.g. ARM or x86 or riscv, and depending on the boot mode and boot loader and kernel, some nodes may not be populated. !<platform_info> ! <acpi revision="2" rsdt="0x1fe93074" xsdt="0x1fe930e8"/> ! <boot> ! <framebuffer phys="0x7300000" width="1024" height="768" bpp="32"/> ! </boot> !</platform_info> If the ACPI RSDT and XSDT physical pointer is reported by the used kernel and/or bootloader, _Core_ may provide this information by the ROM. If the graphic device is initialised and can be directly used by a framebuffer driver, _Core_ may provide the physical pointer to the framebuffer, the resolution and color depth in bits.
