ARM updates
Due to the ABI we are using we have to use the earm architecture
moniker for the build system to behave correctly. This involves
then some headers to move around.
There is also a few related Makefile updates as well as minor
source code corrections.

Reverting back to default value of MKARZERO
The value was changed to no for cross-building as the old binutils
could not handle the required flag. As this is now possible, the
default is restored.
This flags make sure that AR zeroes out some timestamps and uid/gid
fields in libraries, which would change for every build of the
library otherwise, preventing comparison between to builds.

ARM: fix clock
The GPTIMER1 clock is configured to run at 32 kHz and generate
(overflow) interrupts every 1 ms. However, the Timer Overflow Wrappping
Register (TOWR) was configured to filter every other interrupt. This

VFS: change locking to ease concurrent FSes
This patch uses stricter locking for REQ_LINK, REQ_MKDIR, REQ_MKNOD,
REQ_RENAME, REQ_RMDIR, REQ_SLINK and REQ_UNLINK. For all requests, VFS
locks the directory in which we add or remove an inode with VNODE_WRITE.
I.e., the operations have exclusive access to that directory.
Furthermore, REQ_CHOWN, REQ_CHMOD, and REQ_FTRUNC now lock the vmnt
VMNT_READ; VMNT_WRITE was unnecessary.

VFS/PFS: remove notion of position in pipes
Because pipes have no file position. VFS maintained (file) offsets into a
buffer internal to PFS and stored them in vnodes for simplicity, mixing
the responsibilities of filp and vnode objects.
With this patch PFS ignores the position field in REQ_READ and REQ_WRITE
requests making VFS' job a lot simpler.

VFS: fix locking bugs
.sync and fsync used unnecessarily restrictive locking type
.fsync violated locking order by obtaining a vmnt lock after a filp lock
.fsync contained a TOCTOU bug
.new_node violated locking rules (didn't upgrade lock upon file creation)
.do_pipe used unnecessarily restrictive locking type
.always lock pipes exclusively; even a read operation might require to do
a write on a vnode object (update pipe size)
.when opening a file with O_TRUNC, upgrade vnode lock when truncating
.utime used unnecessarily restrictive locking type
.path parsing:
.always acquire VMNT_WRITE or VMNT_EXCL on vmnt and downgrade to
VMNT_READ if that was what was actually requested. This prevents the
following deadlock scenario:
thread A:
lock_vmnt(vmp, TLL_READSER);
lock_vnode(vp, TLL_READSER);
upgrade_vmnt_lock(vmp, TLL_WRITE);
thread A will be stuck in upgrade_vmnt_lock and thread B is stuck in
lock_vnode. This happens when, for example, thread A tries create a
new node (open.c:new_node) and thread B tries to do eat_path to
change dir (stadir.c:do_chdir). When the path is being resolved, a
vnode is always locked with VNODE_OPCL (TLL_READSER) and then
downgraded to VNODE_READ if read-only is actually requested. Thread
A locks the vmnt with VMNT_WRITE (TLL_READSER) which still allows
VMNT_READ locks. Thread B can't acquire a lock on the vnode because
thread A has it; Thread A can't upgrade its vmnt lock to VMNT_WRITE
(TLL_WRITE) because thread B has a VMNT_READ lock on it.
By serializing vmnt locks during path parsing, thread B can only
acquire a lock on vmp when thread A has completely finished its
operation.

Adding missing symlink to dynamic loader.

running system anymore, it has appeared that some binaries are
looking for the dynamic loader in /lib instead of /usr/lib.

binaries, until the path is updated in all the toolchains to be
the same.
