55f1d6a9d6 tools/nolibc: rename my_syscallX() to __nolibc_syscallX()
The naming convention of the my_syscallX() macros is a bit unfortunate.
They may conflict with application code and the name is very generic.

Switch to __nolibc_syscallX(). The leading underscores place the symbols
in the implementation-defined namespace, avoiding conflicting names.
It is also clearer that these are non-standard extensions from nolibc.

3d66c4e14f tools/nolibc: add option to disable runtime
In principle, it is possible to use nolibc for only some object files in
a program. In that case, the startup code in _start and _start_c is not
going to be used. Add the NOLIBC_NO_RUNTIME compile time option to
disable it entirely and also remove anything that depends on it.

Doing this avoids warnings from modpost for UML as the _start_c code
references the main function from the .init.text section while it is not
inside .init itself.

02217ad447 tools/nolibc: add support for SuperH
Add support for SuperH/"sh" to nolibc.
Only sh4 is tested for now.

The startup code is special:

__nolibc_entrypoint_epilogue() calls __builtin_unreachable() which emits
a call to abort(). To make this work a function prologue is generated to
set up a GOT pointer which corrupts "sp".
__builtin_unreachable() is necessary for __attribute__((noreturn)).
Also depending on compiler flags (for example -fPIC) even more prologue
is generated.

Work around this by defining a nested function in asm.
