From Linux 3.17 6ebbf2ce437b33022d30badd49dc94d33ecfa498:
ARMv6 and greater introduced a new instruction ("bx") which can be used
to return from function calls. Recent CPUs perform better when the
"bx lr" instruction is used rather than the "mov pc, lr" instruction,
and this sequence is strongly recommended to be used by the ARM
architecture manual (section A.4.1.1).

There's no need: __linker_init only takes one argument.
Also remove the arm __CTOR_LIST__; we use .init_array and .fini_array instead
of .ctor and .dtor anyway, and I don't think we've ever supported the latter.

Our <machine/asm.h> files were modified from upstream, to the extent
that no architecture was actually using the upstream ENTRY or END macros,
assuming that architecture even had such a macro upstream. This patch moves
everyone to the same macros, with just a few tweaks remaining in the
<machine/asm.h> files, which no one should now use directly.
I've removed most of the unused cruft from the <machine/asm.h> files, though
there's still rather a lot in the mips/mips64 ones.

There's now only one place where we deal with this stuff, it only needs to
be parsed once by the dynamic linker (rather than by each recipient), and it's
now easier for us to get hold of auxv data early on.

This patch replaces .S versions of x86 crtfiles with .c which are much
easier to support. Some of the files are matching .c version of Arm
crtfiles. x86 files required some cleanup anyway and this cleanup actually
led to matching Arm files.
I didn't change anything to share the same crt*.c between x86 and Arm. I
prefer to keep them separate for a while in case any change is required
for one of the arch, but it's good thing to do in the following patches.

With -fstack-protector, x86 -m32 needs __stack_chk_fail_local
defined in crtbegin_*.o.
Include __stack_chk_fail_local.S in begin.S otherwise linker
(which is built w/o crt*) may not link.

We don't have a toolchain anymore, we don't have working original
kernel headers, and nobody is maintaining this so there is really
no point in keeping this here. Details of the patch:
- removed code paths from Android.mk files related to the SuperH
architecture ("sh")
- removed libc/arch-sh, linker/arch-sh, libc/kernel/arch-sh
- simplified libc/SYSCALLS.TXT
- simplified the scripts in libc/tools/ and libc/kernel/tools
