unnecessarily uses any variables defined by the BSP. On this
sweep, use of BSP_Configuration and Cpu_table was eliminated.
A significant part of this modification was the addition of
macros to access fields in the RTEMS configuration structures.
This is necessary to strengthen the division between the BSP independent
parts of RTEMS and the BSPs themselves. This started after
comments and analysis by Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>.
particular, using bsp.h, or getting information from the BSP which
should properly be obtained from RTEMS is forbidden. This is
necessary to strengthen the division between the BSP independent
parts of RTEMS and the BSPs themselves. This started after
comments and analysis by Ralf Corsepius <corsepiu@faw.uni-ulm.de>.
The changes primarily eliminated the need to include bsp.h and
peeking at BSP_Configuration. The use of Cpu_table in each
BSP needs to be eliminated.
