ARM core changes to support !MMU Kernel on v7-A MMU processors.

Based on the feedback from Russell, it was decided to handle vector
base dynamically in C for no-MMU & work towards the the goal of
removing VECTORS_BASE from Kconfig.
Looks good from my perspective.  If Vladimir can reply about patch 2,
then I think we'll be good to go with these.  Thanks.
Patch system has been updated with this series along with Vladimir's
Tested-by on patch 2.

Thanks
My R-class and M-class setups continue to work with this series applied on
top of next-20170201 plus
following fixup for PATCH 2/3
Yes, Russell has applied another patch and the context changes a little.
 -#define VECTORS_BASE          UL(0xffff0000)
 -
- /*
-  * We fix the TCM memories max 32 KiB ITCM resp DTCM at these
-  * locations
+ #ifdef CONFIG_XIP_KERNEL
+ #define KERNEL_START          _sdata
+ #else

FWIW: Tested-by: Vladimir Murzin [off-list ref]
Thanks
