mn10300: add the MN10300/AM33 architecture to the kernel

Add architecture support for the MN10300/AM33 CPUs produced by MEI to the
kernel.

This patch also adds board support for the ASB2303 with the ASB2308 daughter
board, and the ASB2305.  The only processor supported is the MN103E010, which
is an AM33v2 core plus on-chip devices.

+		   =========================================
+		   PART-SPECIFIC SOURCE COMPARTMENTALISATION
+		   =========================================
+
+The sources for various parts are compartmentalised at two different levels:
+
+ (1) Processor level
+
+     The "processor level" is a CPU core plus the other on-silicon
+     peripherals.
+
+     Processor-specific header files are divided among directories in a similar
+     way to the CPU level:
+
+	(*) include/asm-mn10300/proc-mn103e010/
+
+	    Support for the AM33v2 CPU core.
+
+     The appropriate processor is selected by a CONFIG_MN10300_PROC_YYYY option
+     from the "Processor support" choice menu in the arch/mn10300/Kconfig file.
+
+
+ (2) Unit level
+
+     The "unit level" is a processor plus all the external peripherals
+     controlled by that processor.
+
+     Unit-specific header files are divided among directories in a similar way
+     to the CPU level; not only that, but specific sources may also be
+     segregated into separate directories under the arch directory:
+
+	(*) include/asm-mn10300/unit-asb2303/
+	(*) arch/mn10300/unit-asb2303/
+
+	    Support for the ASB2303 board with an ASB2308 daughter board.
+
+	(*) include/asm-mn10300/unit-asb2305/
+	(*) arch/mn10300/unit-asb2305/
+
+	    Support for the ASB2305 board.
+
+     The appropriate processor is selected by a CONFIG_MN10300_UNIT_ZZZZ option
+     from the "Unit type" choice menu in the arch/mn10300/Kconfig file.
+
+
+============
+COMPILE TIME
+============
+
+When the kernel is compiled, symbolic links will be made in the asm header file
+directory for this arch:
+
+	include/asm-mn10300/proc => include/asm-mn10300/proc-YYYY/
+	include/asm-mn10300/unit => include/asm-mn10300/unit-ZZZZ/
+
+So that the header files contained in those directories can be accessed without
+lots of #ifdef-age.
+
+The appropriate arch/mn10300/unit-ZZZZ directory will also be entered by the
+compilation process; all other unit-specific directories will be ignored.
