The implementation of division constructed non-standard
stack frames that could not be handled by the traceback
routines.
CL 13239052 left the frames non-standard but fixed them
for the specific case of a divide-by-zero panic.
A profiling signal can arrive at any time, so that fix
is not sufficient.
Change the division to store the extra argument in the M struct
instead of in a new stack slot. That keeps the frames bog standard
at all times.
Also fix a related bug in the traceback code: when starting
a traceback, the LR register should be ignored if the current
function has already allocated its stack frame and saved the
original LR on the stack. The stack copy should be used, as the
LR register may have been modified.
Combined, these make the torture test from issue 6681 pass.
Fixes#6681.

The implementation of division in the 5 toolchain is a bit too magical.
Hide the magic from the traceback routines.
Also add a test for the results of the software divide routine.
Fixes#5805.

Remove NOPROF/DUPOK from everything.
Edits done with a script, except pclinetest.asm which depended
on the DUPOK flag on main().

It's okay to preempt at ordinary function calls because
compilers arrange that there are no live registers to save
on entry to the function call.
The software floating point routines are function calls
masquerading as individual machine instructions. They are
expected to keep all the registers intact. In particular,
they are expected not to clobber all the floating point
registers.
The floating point registers are kept per-M, because they
are not live at non-preemptive goroutine scheduling events,
and so keeping them per-M reduces the number of 132-byte
register blocks we are keeping in memory.
Because they are per-M, allowing the goroutine to be
rescheduled during software floating point simulation
would mean some other goroutine could overwrite the registers
or perhaps the goroutine would continue running on a different
M entirely.
Disallow preemption during the software floating point
routines to make sure that a function full of floating point
instructions has the same floating point registers throughout
its execution.

Preemption during the software floating point code
could cause m (R9) to change, so that when the
original registers were restored at the end of the
floating point handler, the changed and correct m
would be replaced by the old and incorrect m.

to avoid unintentionally clobber R9/R10.
Thanks Lucio for the suggestion.
PS: yes, this could be considered a big change (but not an API change), but
as it turns out even temporarily changes R9/R10 in user code is unsafe and
leads to very hard to diagnose problems later, better to disable using R9/R10
when the user first uses it.
See CL 6300043 and CL 6305100 for two problems caused by misusing R9/R10.

Collapse the arch,os-specific directories into the main directory
by renaming xxx/foo.c to foo_xxx.c, and so on.
There are no substantial edits here, except to the Makefile.
The assumption is that the Go tool will #define GOOS_darwin
and GOARCH_amd64 and will make any file named something
like signals_darwin.h available as signals_GOOS.h during the
build. This replaces what used to be done with -I$(GOOS).
There is still work to be done to make runtime build with
standard tools, but this is a big step. After this we will have
to write a script to generate all the generated files so they
can be checked in (instead of generated during the build).
