Thomas De Schampheleire dd8a410eaf core: introduce NORMALIZED_ARCH as non-kernel replacement for KERNEL_ARCH
The variable 'KERNEL_ARCH' is actually a normalized version of
'ARCH'/'BR2_ARCH'. For example, 'arcle' and 'arceb' both become 'arc', just
as all powerpc variants become 'powerpc'.

It is presumably called 'KERNEL_ARCH' because the Linux kernel is typically
the first place where support for a new architecture is added, and thus is
the entity that defines the normalized name.

However, the term 'KERNEL_ARCH' can also be interpreted as 'the architecture
used by the kernel', which need not be exactly the same as 'the normalized
name for a certain arch'. In particular, for cases where a 64-bit
architecture is running a 64-bit kernel but 32-bit userspace. Examples
include:
    * aarch64 architecture, with aarch64 kernel and 32-bit (ARM) userspace
    * x86_64 architecture, with x86_64 kernel and 32-bit (i386) userspace

In such cases, the 'architecture used by the kernel' needs to refer to the
64-bit name (aarch64, x86_64), whereas all userspace applications need to
refer the, potentially normalized, 32-bit name.

This means that there need to be two different variables:

KERNEL_ARCH:     the architecture used by the kernel
NORMALIZED_ARCH: the normalized name for the current userspace architecture

At this moment, both will actually have the same content. But a subsequent
patch will add basic support for situations described above, in which
KERNEL_ARCH may become overwritten to the 64-bit architecture, while
NORMALIZED_ARCH needs to remain the same (32-bit) case.

This commit replaces use of KERNEL_ARCH where actually the userspace arch is
needed.  Places that use KERNEL_ARCH in combination with building of kernel
modules are not touched.
There may be cases where a package builds both a kernel module as userspace,
in which case it may need to know about both KERNEL_ARCH and
NORMALIZED_ARCH, for the case where they differ. But this is to be fixed on
a per-need basis.

MMU starting from version 3 (found in ARC 770) and now
version 4 (found in ARC HS38) allows the selection of the
page size during ASIC design creation.
The following options are available for MMU v3 and v4: 4kB,
8kB and 16 kB.
The default is 8 kB (that really matches the only page size
in MMU v2). It is important to build a toolchain with page
size matching the hardware configuration. Otherwise
user-space applications will fail at runtime.
