This patch adds support for the ARMv8-M Security Extensions
'cmse_nonsecure_call' attribute. This attribute may only be used for
function types and when used in combination with the '-mcmse'
compilation flag. See Section 5.5 of ARM®v8-M Security Extensions
(http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ecm0359818/index.html).

We currently do not support cmse_nonsecure_call functions that pass
arguments or return variables on the stack and we diagnose this.
