1. You have to make sure that the RTEMS tool chain supports your processor.
This will very likely require the addition of a Thumb 2 multi-lib.  Please open
a PR in the RTEMS bugzilla for this (https://www.rtems.org/bugzilla/).
You may use the GDB ARM simulator BSP to test this
(c/src/lib/libbsp/arm/gdbarmsim).

2. You have to adopt the CPU support in cpukit/score/cpu/arm.  This includes
 o interrupt enable/disable/flash,
 o context switch, and
 o exception handling support.
Please make sure that you only use multi-lib options for conditional
compilation inside the cpukit.  You can find the available multi-lib options in
the GCC sources (gcc/config/arm/t-rtems).  The GCC sources need the latest
RTEMS patch.  Please open a PR for these adoptions.
