Just move the macros into header file as we would want to use them for
KGDB FIQ entry code.

The following macros were moved:

 - svc_entry
 - usr_entry
 - kuser_cmpxchg_check
 - vector_stub

To make kuser_cmpxchg_check actually work across different files, we
also have to make kuser_cmpxchg64_fixup global.

Why can't we put the fiq entry code from the next patch into
entry-armv.S? Sorry if this has been asked before but I don't see any
reasoning in the commit text.

Thanks for taking a look!

This is a prerequisite to just logically separate KGDB FIQ code from the
entry code.

Or to put it the other way around: KGDB FIQ is just another user of the
FIQs, nothing quite special in it to put it alongside the entry code. :-)

But if Russell or other folks feel that having KGDB FIQ asm code in
entry-armv.S makes sense, I'd definitely do this.

Thanks,
Anton.
