  - Support for HS38 cores based on ARCv2 ISA
 
      ARCv2 is the next generation ISA from Synopsys and basis for the
      HS3{4,6,8} families of processors which retain the traditional ARC mantra of
      low power and configurability and are now more performant and feature rich.
 
      HS38x is a 10 stage pipeline core which supports MMU (with huge pages) and
      SMP (upto 4 cores) among other features.
