There are no separate supervisor and user stack pointers on older
Coldfire CPUs such as the mcf5329.
We, therefore, must enable the use of software copies which is done by
selecting CONFIG_COLDFIRE_SW_A7, else the first user process has a wrong
stack pointer.

I (Geert) am not that super familiar with the CONFIG_COLDFIRE_SW_A7
handling. According to Section 3.2.3 ("Supervisor/User Stack Pointers
(A7 and OTHER_A7)") of MCF5329RM.pdf[1], mcf5329 does have separate
stack pointers, but they're not USP and SSP, like on classic m68k and
newer Coldfire parts.
Hence mcf5329 differs from e.g. mcf5206[2], which has a single unified
stack pointer, which is what CONFIG_COLDFIRE_SW_A7 is designed for.
I don't know if this applies to all mcf532x variants.
It's quite possible CONFIG_COLDFIRE_SW_A7 is the correct solution for
mcf5329, or perhaps it needs some special handling for A7 vs. OTHER_A7?
Thanks!
