C54x Optimizations

ThreadX optimizes context switching on the C54x. When context switching occurs inside of a ThreadX service call, only the registers preserved across function calls are saved as part of the thread's context.

A similar technique is used in interrupt handling. On the front end of interrupt service routines, only the compiler's scratch registers are saved initially. The full register set is saved only if thread preemption is required.
