BSYM() was invented to allow us to work around a problem with the
assembler, where local symbols resolved by the assembler for the 'adr'
instruction did not take account of their ISA.
Since we don't want BSYM() used elsewhere, replace BSYM() with a new
macro 'badr', which is like the 'adr' pseudo-op, but with the BSYM()
mechanics integrated into it. This ensures that the BSYM()-ification
is only used in conjunction with 'adr'.

This patch makes it possible to enter zImage in Thumb mode for ARMv7-M
(Cortex-M) CPUs that do not support ARM mode. The kernel entry is also
made in Thumb mode.

Patching UP/SMP alternatives inside inline assembly blocks is useful
outside of the spinlock implementation, where it is used for sev and wfe.
This patch lifts the macro into processor.h and gives it a scarier name
to (a) avoid conflicts in the global namespace and (b) to try and deter
its usage unless you "know what you're doing". The W macro for generating
wide instructions when targetting Thumb-2 is also made available under
the name WASM, to reduce the potential for conflicts with other headers.

BSYM macro is only needed for assembly files and its usage in c files is
wrong, so only define it for assembly.

This patch adds various C and assembler macros that help with using
the unified assembler syntax for compiling files to either ARM or
Thumb-2 modes.
