Support for EZchip development platforms,
based on ARC700 cores.
We handle few flavours:
- Hardware Emulator AKA HE which is FPGA based chasis
- Simulator based on MetaWare nSIM
- NPS400 chip based on ASIC

Here we add new hierarchy for CPUs topology.
We got:
Core
Thread
At the new thread level each CPU represent one HW thread.
At highest hierarchy each core contain 16 threads,
any of them seem like CPU from Linux point of view.
All threads within same core share the execution unit of the
core and HW scheduler round robin between them.
