frv: Rewrite atomic implementation
Mostly complete rewrite of the FRV atomic implementation, instead of using assembly files, use inline assembler. The out-of-line CONFIG option makes a bit of a mess of things, but a little CPP trickery gets that done too. FRV already had the atomic logic ops but under a non standard name, the reimplementation provides the generic names and provides the intermediate form required for the bitops implementation. The slightly inconsistent __atomic32_fetch_##op naming is because __atomic_fetch_##op conlicts with GCC builtin functions. The 64bit atomic ops use the inline assembly %Ln construct to access the low word register (r+1), afaik this construct was not previously used in the kernel and is completely undocumented, but I found it in the FRV GCC code and it seems to work. FRV had a non-standard definition of atomic_{clear,set}_mask() which would work types other than atomic_t, the one user relying on that (arch/frv/kernel/dma.c) got converted to use the new intermediate form.
