arch/arm: Remove support for CONFIG_ARMV7M_CMNVECTOR. It is now the only vector support available. Also remove CONFIG_HAVE_CMNVECTOR. That no longer signifies anything."
arch/arm/src/stm32: This commit removes support for the dedicated vector handling from the STM32 architecture support. Only common vectors are now supported.
arch/arm/src/lpc17xx: This commit removes support for the dedicated vector handling from the LPC17xx architectures. Only common vectors are now supported.
arch/arm/src/kinetis: This commit removes support for the dedicated vector handling from the Kinetis architectures. Only common vectors are now supported.

Change all calls to usleep() in the OS proper to calls to nxsig_usleep()
sched/signal: Add a new OS internal function nxsig_usleep() that is functionally equivalent to usleep() but does not cause a cancellaption point and does not modify the errno variable.
sched/signal: Add a new OS internal function nxsig_sleep() that is functionally equivalent to sleep() but does not cause a cancellaption point.
This commit backs out most of commit b4747286b19d3b15193b2a5e8a0fe48fa0a8638c. 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.
Provide a user defined callback context for irq's, such that when
registering a callback users can provide a pointer that will get
passed back when the isr is called.
This change three things: (1) It adds HWFEAT_LSBFIRST as a new H/W feature. (2) It changes the implementations of SPI_SETBITS in the STM32 and EFM32 derivers so that negated bit numbers are simply errors and it adds the SPI_HWFEATURES method that can set the LSB bit order, and (3) It changes all calls with negative number of bits from all drivers: The number of bits is now always positive and SPI_HWFEATUREs is called with HWFEAT_LSBFIRST to set the bit order.
