2017-11-21arm: provide a PCS-compliant setjmp implementationPhilipp Tomsich
The previous setjmp-implementation (as a static inline function that contained an 'asm volatile' sequence) was extremely fragile: (some versions of) GCC optimised the set of registers. One critical example was the removal of 'r9' from the clobber list, if -ffixed-reg9 was supplied. To increase robustness and ensure PCS-compliant behaviour, the setjmp and longjmp implementation are now in assembly and closely match what one would expect to find in a libc implementation.
