A new platform should provide the following content in
arch/${MACHINE_ARCH} or arch/${MACHINE_CPU}:
- Makefile.inc: provides ELFSIZE corresponding to 32/64bit file format
- Makefile.inc: provides ELFSIZE corresponding to 32/64bit file format.
If using the common C code instead of crtbegin.S also provide a -I option
to find crtbegin.h in your arch subdir.
- crt0.S: provides setup code and the call to __start.
- crtbegin.S: see below
- crtbegin.S or crtbegin.h: see below
- crtend.S: see below, most likely just a copy of an existing architecture
- crti.S: prefix part of .init/.fini sections, i.e. to ensure stack alignment
- crtn.S: suffix part of the .init/.fini sections, i.e. return to caller.

Call the pointers as void (*)(void) functions.
5. If __deregister_frame_info is NULL, return.
6. Call __deregister_frame_info with the start of .eh_frame as the argument.
Since most of this can easily be done in C code, instead of providing a
crtbegin.S you can also chose to use the generic C implementation. Provide
a crtbegin.h file instead of crtbegin.S. In there put inline assembler
stubs (mostly copied from some other arch) and implement calls to the
helper functions __do_global_ctors_aux/__do_global_dtors_aux.
