armv7: Support stack dump after exceptions
This patch enhances the armv7 exception handlers in Coreboot and
libpayload to show the correct SP and LR registers from the aborted
context, and also dump a part of the current stack. Since we cannot
access the banked registers of SVC mode from a different exception mode,
it changes Coreboot (and its payloads) to run in System mode instead. As
both modes can execute all privileged instructions, this should not have
any noticeable effect on firmware operation (please correct me if I'm
wrong!).
BUG=None
TEST=Cause a data_abort in Coreboot or depthcharge. Marvel at the
beautifully displayed stack dump that helps you debug the abort.
