This reverts commit 26614832f2.
A bug in upstream nanopb, which this commit was pulling as part

On platforms like nrf5340 there are 2 CPUs:
- one is the cpu_net which takes care of the radio stuff and
owns the HW random generator
- one is the cpu_app which holds application data and polls
cpu_net through HCI commands when it needs some random data.
The PSA core implemented in Mbed TLS needs random data at initialization
time, which happens early in the boot process. If we wait for BT to
be ready before issuing the HCI command, then PSA core intialization
will fail. In facts there is no need for the BT to be completely
initialized just to ask for some random data from the cpu_app to
the cpu_net since the HW random generator will likely be already
functional in the cpu_net.
So let's just try the HCI command and, if something is not right,
it will fail anyway. There's no need to anticipate the failure.

Because the number of ACL RX buffers must be at least the number of
maximum connections plus one, increasing `CONFIG_BT_MAX_CONN` could
inadvertently lead to a build failure if the number of ACL RX buffers is
not also increased. This dependency may not be obvious to users.
To address this issue, this commit deprecates the
`CONFIG_BT_BUF_RX_COUNT` Kconfig symbol and computes the value in
`buf.h` using the new `BT_BUF_RX_COUNT` define. Note that the default
value and the minimum range value have been changed to 0 to "disable"
the option.
Additionally, to allow users to increase the number of ACL RX buffers,
this commit introduces the new `CONFIG_BT_BUF_RX_COUNT_EXTRA` Kconfig
symbol. The value of this symbol will be added to the computed value of
`BT_BUF_RX_COUNT`.
The configurations of tests and samples have been updated to reflect
these changes.

Add a simple demonstration of the led_write_channels api on the lp5569
driver sample.
The demonstration simply turns on all of the channels with a single call to
led_write_channels. Then the same is done for turning off the channels.
Thus, it doesn't add much visually, but it shows the usage of the api.

The lp5569 has multiple pwm outputs, and thus implementing the
write_channels api to set multiple values in a single call makes sense.
Implement the write_channels function with a basic range check on the
channel range.
Since the lp5569 supports auto-increment, all of the channels can be
written in one i2c transfer, starting from the pwm register of the
start_channel.
Signed-off-by: Emil Dahl Juhl <emdj@bang-olufsen.dk>
The lp5569 controller supports auto-increment for its registers. This is by
default enabled in the chip, but the driver actively disabled it.
Since auto-increment is useful for writing multiple consecutive registers,
enable the feature. The driver, however, doesn't perform such consecutive
writes and thus the existing behavior is not altered.

Add the following arch-specific APIs:
- arch_curr_thread()
- arch_set_curr_thread()
which allow SMP architectures to implement a faster "get current
thread pointer" than the default provided by the kernel. The 'set'
function is required for the 'get' to work, more on that later.
When `CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CUSTOM_CURRENT_IMPL` is selected, calls to
`_current` & `k_sched_current_thread_query()` will be redirected to
`arch_curr_thread()`, which ideally should translate into a single
instruction read, avoiding the current
"lock > read CPU > read current thread > unlock" path in SMP
architectures and thus greatly improves the read performance.
However, since the kernel relies on a copy of the "current thread"s on
every CPU for certain operations (i.e. to compare the priority of the
currently scheduled thread on another CPU to determine if IPI should be
sent), we can't eliminate the copy of "current thread" (`current`) from
the `struct _cpu` and therefore the kernel now has to invoke
`arch_set_curr_thread()` in addition to what it has been doing. This
means that it will take slightly longer (most likely one instruction
write) to change the current thread pointer on the current
CPU.

To use Xtensa toolchain, various environment variables must be

test multiple boards with different cores. You have to use
one set of environment variables per core. Twister cannot test
them all in one setting, and it is especially annoying doing
west builds. So enhance the environment variables handling so
that TOOLCHAIN_VER and XTENSA_CORE can be replaced by
TOOLCHAIN_VAR_<board> and XTENSA_CORE_<board> where <board>
is the normalized board target (think <board>.yaml). CMake

Support extending an existing board with new board variants.
This commit introduces the following changes to allow a board to be
extended out-of-tree.
The board yaml schema is extended to support an extend field which
will be used to identify the board to be extended.
A board 'plank' can be extended like this:
> board:
> extend: plank
> variants:
> - name: ext
> qualifier: soc1
For the rest of the build system this means that there is no longer a
single board directory.
The existing CMake variable BOARD_DIR is kept and reference the
directory which defines the board.
A new CMake variable BOARD_DIRECTORIES provides a list of all
directories which defines board targets for the board.
This means the directory which defines the board as well as all
directories that extends the board.

What is changed?
- Added a new mps3 board an552 for the soc corstone300.
The qualifier to build/run application with board mps3/an552 is
`mps3/corstone300/an552` for secure and
`mps3/corstone300/an552/ns` for non-secure.
- Added FVP variant to enable FVP testing with corstone300
and it uses the ARM FVP `FVP_Corstone_SSE-300_Ethos-U55`.
The qualifier to build/run application with FVP is
`mps3/corstone300/fvp` for secure and
`mps3/corstone300/fvp/ns` for non-secure.
- Note: the qualifier to build/run application with board mps3/an547
is now changed to
`mps3/corstone300/an547` for secure and
`mps3/corstone300/an547/ns` for non-secure.
How is it changed?
- Moved common code from mps3/an547 to corstone300.
- Renamed soc for an547 to corstone300 and added
a new soc corstone300/an552.
Why do we need this change?
- This enables FVP support and testing for corstone300.
- SOC/qualifier for mps3/an547 was renamed to reduce code redundancy
- A separate FVP variant was added for AN552 because, the TFM board
used for non-secure variant differs for FPGA and FVP.
TFM board `arm/mps3/corstone300/fvp` should be used when testing
AN552 with FVP and `arm/mps3/corstone300/an552` should be used when
testing with AN552 FPGA.
