When doing very early p2m setting, we need to separate setting
from allocation, so split things up accordingly.

Add Kconfig dependency on NUMA for enabling UV. Although it might
be possible to configure non-NUMA UV systems, they are unsupported

Add support for Always Running APIC timer, CPUID_0x6_EAX_Bit2.
This bit means the APIC timer continues to run even when CPU is
in deep C-states.
The advantage is that we can use LAPIC timer on these CPUs
always, and there is no need for "slow to read and program"
external timers (HPET/PIT) and the timer broadcast logic
and related code in C-state entry and exit.

Impact: Fixes these modes on at least one system
The rewrite of the setup code into C resequenced the font setting and
register reprogramming phases of configuring nonstandard VGA modes
which use 480 scan lines in text mode. However, there exists at least
one board (Micro-Star MS-7383 version 2.0) on which this resequencing
causes an unusable display.
Revert to the original sequencing: set up 480-line mode, install the
font, and then adjust the vertical end register appropriately.
This failure was masked by the fact that the 480-line setup was broken
until checkin 5f641356127712fbdce0eee120e5ce115860c17f (therefore this
is not a -stable candidate bug fix.)

All logical processors with APIC ID values of 255 and greater will have their
APIC reported through Processor X2APIC structure (type-9 entry type) and all
logical processors with APIC ID less than 255 will have their APIC reported
through legacy Processor Local APIC (type-0 entry type) only. This is the
same case even for NMI structure reporting.
The Processor X2APIC Affinity structure provides the association between the
X2APIC ID of a logical processor and the proximity domain to which the logical
processor belongs.
For OSPM, Procssor IDs outside the 0-254 range are to be declared as Device()
objects in the ACPI namespace.

pci mmap code was doing memtype reserve for a while now. Recently we
added memtype tracking in remap_pfn_range, and pci code indirectly calls
remap_pfn_range. So, we don't need seperate tracking in pci code
anymore. Which means a patch that removes ~50 lines of code :-).
Also, recently we found out that the pci tracking is not working as we expect
it to work in some cases. Specifically, userlevel X mmap of pci, with some
recent version of X, is having a problem with vm_page_prot getting reset.
The pci tracking uses vm_page_prot to pass on the protection type from parent
to child during fork.
a) Parent does a pci mmap
b) We look at PAT and get either UC_MINUS or WC mapping for parent
c) Store that mapping type in vma vm_page_prot for future use
d) This thread does a fork
e) Fork results in mmap_ops ->open for the child process
f) We get the vm_page_prot from vma and reserve that type for the child process
But, between c) and e) above, the vma vm_page_prot is getting reset to zero.
This results in PAT reserve failing at the time of fork as in here.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123858163103240&w=2
This cleanup makes the above problem go away as we do not depend on
vm_page_prot in our PAT code anymore.

The __restore_processor_state() fn restores %gs on resume from S3. As
such, it cannot be protected by the stack-protector guard since %gs will
not be correct on function entry.
There are only a few other fns in this file and it should not negatively
impact kernel security that they will also have the stack-protector
guard removed (and so it's not worth moving them to another file).
Without this change, S3 resume on a kernel built with
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_ALL=y will fail.

Impact: unification of pci-dma macros and pci_32.h removal
This patch unifies the definition of the pci_unmap_addr*, pci_unmap_len*
and DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP* macros. This makes sense because the pci_unmap
functions are no longer no-ops anymore when the kernel runs with
CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG. Without an iommu or DMA_API_DEBUG it is a no-op on 32 bit
because the dma mapping path returns a physical address and therefore the
dma-api implementation has no internal state which needs to be destroyed with
an unmap call.
This unification also simplifies the port of x86_64 iommu drivers to 32 bit x86
and let us get rid of pci_32.h.

This patch adds preadv and pwritev system calls. These syscalls are a
pretty straightforward combination of pread and readv (same for write).
They are quite useful for doing vectored I/O in threaded applications.
Using lseek+readv instead opens race windows you'll have to plug with
locking.
Other systems have such system calls too, for example NetBSD, check
here: http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/preadv.2.html
The application-visible interface provided by glibc should look like
this to be compatible to the existing implementations in the *BSD family:
ssize_t preadv(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);
ssize_t pwritev(int d, const struct iovec *iov, int iovcnt, off_t offset);
This prototype has one problem though: On 32bit archs is the (64bit)
offset argument unaligned, which the syscall ABI of several archs doesn't
allow to do. At least s390 needs a wrapper in glibc to handle this. As
we'll need a wrappers in glibc anyway I've decided to push problem to
glibc entriely and use a syscall prototype which works without
arch-specific wrappers inside the kernel: The offset argument is
explicitly splitted into two 32bit values.
The patch sports the actual system call implementation and the windup in
the x86 system call tables. Other archs follow as separate patches.
