    Add semihosting documentation for nios2 and m68k.
    
    QEMU maintainers have asked for a specification of the nios2
    semihosting interface.  Since it's essentially a copy of the m68k
    implementation, this patch adds a document for that target as well.

+m68k Semihosting Protocol
+-------------------------
+
+The instruction used to trigger a semihosting request depends on the
+m68k processor variant.  On ColdFire, "halt" is used; on other processors
+(which don't implement "halt"), "bkpt #0" may be used.
+
+Additionally, a special code sequence is used to distinguish
+semihosting requests from other uses of the instruction used to
+trigger it.  The semihosting instruction is immediately preceded by a
+"nop" aligned to a 4-byte boundary, and followed by an invalid sentinel
+instruction 0x4e7bf000 ("movec %sp,0").  The debug agent handling the
+semihosting request must adjust the program counter to skip over the
+sentinel instruction before continuing execution.
+
+Registers d0 and d1 are used to pass parameters to the semihosting call.
+d0 contains a request code.  d1 is typically a pointer to a 4-longword
+parameter block, except for the exit and simulator initialization operations
+where it is an immediate integer value.
+
+The result of the operation is returned in the first word of the
+parameter block.  The second word is used to return an errno value,
+encoded per the "Errno Values" section of the RSP documentation in the
+GDB User Manual.
+
+The supported d0 request codes are:
+
+#define HOSTED_EXIT  0
+
+  Terminate program execution; send a 'W' stop reply to GDB.
+
+  d1 contains the exit code, as an immediate integer rather than indirectly
+  in a parameter block.  This semihosting request isn't expected to return.
+
+#define HOSTED_INIT_SIM 1
+
+  Do simulator initialization, such as allocation of memory for the
+  stack and heap.  This semihosting request may be triggered from
+  startup code (crt0.S).
+
+  On entry to the semihosting request, d1 contains the default initial
+  stack pointer as an immediate value, typically the high end of
+  memory defined by the linker script.  If the simulator needs to
+  dynamically allocate memory for the stack, it should set both d1 and
+  sp (a7) to the new stack pointer value.

+Nios II Semihosting Protocol
+----------------------------
+
+The runtime (libgloss) indicates a semihosting request to the debug
+agent by issuing a "break 1" instruction.  r4 and r5 are used to pass

+parameter block, except for the exit operation where it is an
+immediate integer value.
