Blackfin arch: Add ability to expend the hardware trace buffer

Add ability to expend the hardware trace buffer via a configurable
software buffer - so you can have lots of history when a crash occurs.

The interesting way we do printk in the traps.c confusese the checking

+	  The trace buffer can be configured to omit recording of changes in
+	  program flow that match either the last entry or one of the last
+	  two entries. Omitting one of these entries from the record prevents
+	  the trace buffer from overflowing because of any sort of loop (for, do
+	  while, etc) in the program.
+
+	  Because zero-overhead Hardware loops are not recorded in the trace buffer,

+	  are nested four deep.
