* score: PR1607: Add and use CPU_SIZEOF_POINTERSebastian Huber2012-11-221-0/+59
Add and use new CPU port define CPU_SIZEOF_POINTER. It must be an integer literal that can be used by the assembler. This value will be used to calculate offsets of structure members. These offsets will be used in assembler code. The size of a pointer is part of the application binary interface (ABI) and thus independent of the actual programming language. The compiler will provide defines to determine the current ABI. We use these defines to select the appropriate CPU_SIZEOF_POINTER value. Static assertions in the new file "cpukit/score/src/percpuasm.c" will ensure that the value of CPU_SIZEOF_POINTER is consistent with the current compiler settings. Also the offset values used by assembler code are verfied.
