This patchset improves the context handling in 2 ways: firstly it unifies
the context structures between switch_to() and CIF entry, and secondly fixes
up the context switch code enough so that we can switch and return from an
arbitrary PC address in testing.
This is a precursor to fixing up the load/init-program logic so that clients
are able access and alter their own context from Forth.

Mark Cave-Ayland (7):
SPARC64: add parameter to indicate %cwp save/restore direction
SPARC64: allocate space in context to save global registers
SPARC64: save/restore global registers to context when entering CIF
SPARC64: save CIF entry globals under the client stack
SPARC64: introduce %pc into context and use it when exiting CIF
SPARC64: split off general CPU registers into *_GENERAL_STATE macros
SPARC64: switch entry.S over to use existing context macros
