<id>urn:sha1:eb7c792da5afa3b9ec3e802c30952f82d2e9722b</id>

The kernel code was using some &lt;asm&gt; headers that included a mix
of hardware-specific information (typically found in Tilera &lt;arch&gt;
headers) and structures, enums, and function declarations supporting
the disassembly function of the tile-desc.c sources.

This change refactors that code so that a hardware-specific, but
OS- and application-agnostic header, is created: &lt;arch/opcode.h&gt;.
This header is then exported to userspace along with the other
&lt;arch&gt; headers and can be used to build userspace code; in particular,
it is used by glibc as part of implementing the backtrace() function.

The new header, together with a header that specifically describes
the disassembly code (&lt;asm/tile-desc.h&gt; with _32 and _64 variants),
replaces the old &lt;asm/opcode-tile*.h&gt; and &lt;asm/opcode_constants*.h&gt;
headers.

As part of this change, we are also renaming the 32-bit constants
from TILE_xxx to TILEPRO_xxx to better reflect the fact that they
are specific to the TILEPro architecture, and not to TILE-Gx
and any successor "tile" architecture chips.
