arch/tile: support signal "exception-trace" hook
This change adds support for /proc/sys/debug/exception-trace to tile. Like x86 and sparc, by default it is set to "1", generating a one-line printk whenever a user process crashes. By setting it to "2", we get a much more complete userspace diagnostic at crash time, including a user-space backtrace, register dump, and memory dump around the address of the crash. Some vestiges of the Tilera-internal version of this support are removed with this patch (the show_crashinfo variable and the arch_coredump_signal function). We retain a "crashinfo" boot parameter which allows you to set the boot-time value of exception-trace. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
