e620f4d6f8 arc: clean-up and move CFLAGS to include/target.mk
Most of currently mentioned CFLAGS in arc770/Makefile
are not really required because:
 [1] "-Os -pipe" are set by default in include/target.mk
 [2] "-fno-caller-saves" gets enabled via menuconfig
     as an extra compiler flag for developers

So the only one that makes sense is "-matomic" and
that one is really essential. Without it many software
packges won't build complainin on unresolved atomic ops.

4514589182 arc770: bump linux kernel from 4.3 to 4.4
This switch involved:
 [1] Regeneration of config (few options went away)
 [2] Regeneration of patches so they apply cleanly (different offsets)
 [3] Update of .dts files because we now explicitly specify
     memory regions in use as opposed to previously used offset
     from 0x8000_0000

576621f1e3 linux: add support of Synopsys ARC770-based boards
This patch introduces support of new boards with ARC cores.

 [1] Synopsys SDP board
     This is a new-generation development board from Synopsys that
     consists of base-board and CPU tile-board (which might have a real
     ASIC or FPGA with CPU image).
     It sports a lot of DesignWare peripherals like GMAC, USB, SPI, I2C
     etc and is intended to be used for early development of ARC-based
     products.

 [2] nSIM
     This is a virtual board implemented in Synopsys proprietary
     software simulator (even though available for free for open source
     community). This board has only serial port as a peripheral and so
     it is meant to be used for runtime testing which is especially
     useful during bring-up of new tools and platforms.
     What's also important ARC cores are very configurable so there're
     many variations of options like cache sizes, their line lengths,
     additional hardware blocks like multipliers, dividers etc. And this
     board could be used to make sure built software still runs on
     different HW configurations.
