    armv7: Support stack dump after exceptions
    
    This patch enhances the armv7 exception handlers in Coreboot and
    libpayload to show the correct SP and LR registers from the aborted
    context, and also dump a part of the current stack. Since we cannot
    access the banked registers of SVC mode from a different exception mode,
    it changes Coreboot (and its payloads) to run in System mode instead. As
    both modes can execute all privileged instructions, this should not have
    any noticeable effect on firmware operation (please correct me if I'm
    wrong!).
