This series adds restartable sequences support to OpenRISC.  This came after
discussions with Michael on the libc-alpha list where he added some preliminary
rseq support [1].

The changes use mostly the riscv port as a template.

The patches were tested with selftests on qemu using my glibc branch containing
rseq patches [2].

Note the RSEQ_SIG instruction I chose is a `l.nop 0x35` which is just a nop,
which is different than most other architectures that use a `break` instruction.
As the signature does not need to actually be a break or trap instruction I
figured the nop is good for this.
