tile: support new Tilera hypervisor

commit c539914d upstream.

The Tilera hypervisor shipped in releases up through MDE 4.1 launches
the client operating system (i.e. Linux) at privilege level 1 (PL1).
Starting with MDE 4.2, as part of the work to enable KVM, the
Tilera hypervisor launches Linux at PL2 instead.

This commit makes the KERNEL_PL option default to 2 for tilegx, while
still saying at 1 for tilepro, which doesn't have an updated hypervisor.
It also explains how and when you might want to choose another value.
In addition, we change a small buglet in the on-chip Ethernet driver,
where we were failing to use the KERNEL_PL constant in an API call.

To make the transition cleaner, this change also provides the updated
hv_init() API for the new hypervisor that supports announcing Linux's
compiled-in PL, so the hypervisor can generate a suitable error in the
case of a mismatched hypervisor and Linux binary.

This setting determines the processor protection level the
kernel will be built to run at. Generally you should use
the default value here.
Since MDE 4.2, the Tilera hypervisor runs the kernel
at PL2 by default. If running under an older hypervisor,
or as a KVM guest, you must run at PL1. (The current
hypervisor may also be recompiled with "make HV_PL=2" to
allow it to run a kernel at PL1, but clients running at PL1
are not expected to be supported indefinitely.)
If you're not sure, don't change the default.
