The notifier hook mechanism in proc and cpuinfo is actually unnecessary
for LoongArch because it's not used anywhere.
It was originally added to the MIPS code in commit d6d3c9afaa ("MIPS:
MT: proc: Add support for printing VPE and TC ids"), and LoongArch then
inherited it.
But as the kernel code stands now, this notifier hook mechanism doesn't
really make sense for either LoongArch or MIPS.
In addition, the seq_file forward declaration needs to be moved to its
proper place, as only the show_ipi_list() function in smp.c requires it.

As per arch spec, maximum timer bits is configurable and should not be
hardcoded in any way.
Probe timer bits from PRCFG1 and use that to determine the clockevent's
max_delta to be conformance.

Loongson-3A6000 has SMT (Simultaneous Multi-Threading) support, each
physical core has two logical cores (threads). This patch add SMT probe
and scheduler support via ACPI PPTT.
If SCHED_SMT enabled, Loongson-3A6000 is treated as 4 cores, 8 threads;
If SCHED_SMT disabled, Loongson-3A6000 is treated as 8 cores, 8 threads.
Remove smp_num_siblings to support HMP (Heterogeneous Multi-Processing).

Current cache probe and flush methods have some drawbacks:
1, Assume there are 3 cache levels and only 3 levels;
2, Assume L1 = I + D, L2 = V, L3 = S, V is exclusive, S is inclusive.
However, the fact is I + D, I + D + V, I + D + S and I + D + V + S are
all valid. So, refactor the cache probe and flush methods to adapt more
types of cache hierarchy.

Add common headers (CPU definition and address space layout) for basic
LoongArch support.
