The user of this invalidation are mmcsd_sdio currently. The mmcsd_sdio driver makes calls for dcache invalidation through the chip specific architecture function SDIO_DMARECVSETUP(). I changed the arch/arm/stm32f7 chips to use arch_invalidate_dcache_by_addr() instead of arch_invalidate_dcache().
This commit includes additional changes to mmcsd_sdio.c. I created SDIO_DMADELYDINVLDT() (DMA delayed invalidate) to invalidate store-into mode dcaches after the DMA transfer. I have been using SDIO_DMADELYDINVLDT() for several weeks now and it has fixed the problems that I previously reported regarding non-cache aligned buffer invalidation errors (for my store-through dcache). However, it does not permit use of unaligned DMA buffers for store-into mode dcaches.
SDIO_DMADELYDINVLDT() is a NoOp unless the chip specific Kconfig file selects CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_SDIO_DELAYED_INVLDT. I have modified all the stm32f7 chips to select it.
Pullreq FAT improvements
* NuttX: Add CONFIG_FAT_LFN_ALIAS_HASH to speed up creating long filenames.
Long filenames on FAT filesystems have associated 8.3 character alias
short filenames. The traditional form of these is FILENA~1.EXT with
a running count of the number of similar names. However creating this
unique count can take several seconds if there are many similarly named
files in the directory. Enabling FAT_LFN_ALIAS_HASH uses an alternative
format of FI0123~1.TXT where the four digits are a hash of the original
filename. This method is similar to what is used by Windows 2000 and
later.
* NuttX: Add CONFIG_FAT_LFN_ALIAS_TRAILCHARS alternative format for 8.3 filenames.
Traditional format for long filename 8.3 aliases takes first 6
characters of long filename. If this option is set to N > 0,
NuttX will instead take first 6-N and last N characters to form
the short name. This is useful for filenames like "datafile12.txt"
where the first characters would always remain the same.
* NuttX: FAT32: Fix file date corruption in fat_truncate().
* NuttX: if SD card wait seems to be a long one, give time for other threads to run.

In addition to the problems that were previously identified there were a few other bits and pieces outstanding;
* Timing was dependent on CPU speed rather than absolute time
* End of transfer handling was a bit mixed up
* It's possible for data to still be in the FIFO (i.e. not have reached
the card) when a next write is requested, so we need to wait for that to
complete
* Interrupt Status could be carried over from one transfer episode to the
next, corrupting progress
* Multi-descriptor DMA writing simply wasn't implemented, but there were no
indications ... it just failed silently

This commit backs out most of commit b4747286b1. That change was added because sem_wait() would sometimes cause cancellation points inappropriated. But with these recent changes, nxsem_wait() is used instead and it is not a cancellation point.
In the OS, all calls to sem_wait() changed to nxsem_wait(). nxsem_wait() does not return errors via errno so each place where nxsem_wait() is now called must not examine the errno variable.
In all OS functions (not libraries), change sem_wait() to nxsem_wait(). This will prevent the OS from creating bogus cancellation points and from modifying the per-task errno variable.
sched/semaphore: Add the function nxsem_wait(). This is a new internal OS interface. It is functionally equivalent to sem_wait() except that (1) it is not a cancellation point, and (2) it does not set the per-thread errno value on return.
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_post() which is identical to sem_post() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_post in the OS to nxsem_post().
sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_destroy() which is identical to sem_destroy() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_destroy() in the OS to nxsem_destroy().
libc/semaphore and sched/semaphore: Add nxsem_getprotocol() and nxsem_setprotocola which are identical to sem_getprotocol() and set_setprotocol() except that they never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_setprotocol in the OS to nxsem_setprotocol(). sem_getprotocol() was not used in the OS
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_getvalue() which is identical to sem_getvalue() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_getvalue in the OS to nxsem_getvalue().
sched/semaphore: Rename all internal private functions from sem_xyz to nxsem_xyz. The sem_ prefix is (will be) reserved only for the application semaphore interfaces.
libc/semaphore: Add nxsem_init() which is identical to sem_init() except that it never modifies the errno variable. Changed all references to sem_init in the OS to nxsem_init().
sched/semaphore: Rename sem_tickwait() to nxsem_tickwait() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
sched/semaphoate: Rename sem_reset() to nxsem_reset() so that it is clear this is an internal OS function.
