[PATCH 3/3] arc: Fix crt0.S for cores without barrel shifter

crt0.S for ARC used to use instruction "asr.f lp_count, r3, 2" for all cores
except ARC601. However instructions which shift more than 1 bit are
optional, so this crt0.S didn't worked for all ARC cores.

Luckily this is a shift just by 2 bits on all occassions, so fix is trivial
- use two single-bit shifts.
