We had a static memory_limit in prom.c, and then another one defined
in setup_64.c and used in numa.c, which resulted in the kernel crashing
when mem=xxx was given on the command line. This puts the declaration
in system.h and the definition in mem.c. This also moves the
definition of tce_alloc_start/end out of setup_64.c.

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.
In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.

Reads from an HPET register require a round trip to the south bridge and are
almost as slow as PCI reads. By caching the last value we've written to the
comparator register, we can eliminate all HPET reads from the fast path in the
emulated RTC interrupt handler.

Make sure that the RTC timer is in non-periodic mode; some stupid BIOS might
have initialized it to periodic mode.
Furthermore, don't set the SETVAL bit in the config register. This wouldn't
have any effect unless the timer was in period mode (which it isn't), and then
the actual timer frequency would be half that of the desired one because
incrementing the comparator in the interrupt handler would be done after the
hardware has already incremented it itself.

When the emulated RTC interrupt is no longer needed, we better disable it;
otherwise, we get a spurious interrupt whenever the timer has rolled over and
reaches the same comparator value.
Having a superfluous interrupt every five minutes doesn't hurt much, but it's
bad style anyway. ;-)

Make the pid argument a long as on every other arcihtecture. Despite pid_t
beeing a 32bit type even on 64bit parisc this is not an ABI change due to
the parisc calling conventions. And even if it did it wouldn't matter too

task_struct is an internal structure to the kernel with a lot of good
information, that is probably interesting in core dumps. However there is
no way for user space to know what format that information is in making it
useless.
I grepped the GDB 6.3 source code and NT_TASKSTRUCT while defined is not
used anywhere else. So I would be surprised if anyone notices it is
missing.
In addition exporting kernel pointers to all the interesting kernel data
structures sounds like the very definition of an information leak. I
haven't a clue what someone with evil intentions could do with that
information, but in any attack against the kernel it looks like this is the
perfect tool for aiming that attack.
So since NT_TASKSTRUCT is useless as currently defined and is potentially
dangerous, let's just not export it.
(akpm: Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@debian.org> "would be amazed" if anything was
using NT_TASKSTRUCT).

Remove timer_list.magic and associated debugging code.
I originally added this when a spinlock was added to timer_list - this meant
that an all-zeroes timer became illegal and init_timer() was required.
That spinlock isn't even there any more, although timer.base must now be
initialised.
I'll keep this debugging code in -mm.

TIOCSTART and TIOCSTOP are defined in asm/ioctls.h and asm/termios.h by
various architectures but not actually implemented anywhere but in the IRIX
compatibility layer, so remove their COMPATIBLE_IOCTL from parisc, ppc64
and sparc64.
Move the TIOCSLTC COMPATIBLE_IOCTL to common code, guided by an ifdef to
only show up on architectures that support it (same as the code handling it
in tty_ioctl.c), aswell as it's brother TIOCGLTC that wasn't handled so
far.

I just noted that -mtune is used, which is only supported on recent GCCs; by
reading http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.4/changes.html, you see "-mcpu has been
renamed to -mtune.", so for GCC < 3.4 we're not using any specific tuning in
the appropriate cases. However -mcpu is deprecated, so use -mtune when
possible.
This was introduced by commit e9d4dce954a60dc23dd1d967766ca2347b780e54 of the
old tree (between 2.6.10-rc3 and 2.6.10) by Linus Torvalds, to remove the use
of -march, since that could trigger gcc using SSE on its own. But no
attention was used about using -mcpu vs. -mtune.
And btw, the old 2.6.4 code (for instance) was:
cflags-$(CONFIG_MPENTIUMII) += $(call check_gcc,-march=pentium2,-march=i686)
cflags-$(CONFIG_MPENTIUMIII) += $(call check_gcc,-march=pentium3,-march=i686)
cflags-$(CONFIG_MPENTIUMM) += $(call check_gcc,-march=pentium3,-march=i686)
cflags-$(CONFIG_MPENTIUM4) += $(call check_gcc,-march=pentium4,-march=i686)

Make UML share the underlying cpu-specific tuning done on i386.
Actually, for now many config options aren't used a lot - but that can be done
later. Also, UML relies on GCC optimization for things like memcpy and such
more than i386, so specifying the correct -march and -mtune should be enough.
Later, we may want to correct some other stuff.
For instance, since FPU context switching, for us, is done (at least
partially, i.e. between our kernelspace and userspace) by the host, we may
allow usage of FPU operations by GCC. This doesn't hold for kernelspace vs.
kernelspace, but we don't support preemption.

After staring at mpparse.c for a little longer I noticed that when we hit
our limit of num_processors we are filtering out information about other
processors that we can still store.
This patch just reorders the code so we store everything we can.
This should avoid the incorrect warning about our boot CPU not being listed
by the BIOS that we are now getting in the kexec on panic case, and it
should allow us to detect all apicid conflicts even when our physical
number of cpus exceeds maxcpus.

o Removes the unnecessary call to local_irq_disable().
o Kdump was failing while second kernel was coming up. Check for presence
of boot cpu apic id was failing in (apic_id_registered), hence hitting
BUG().
o This should not have failed because before calling setup_local_APIC(), it is
ensured that even if BIOS has not reported boot cpu, then hard set the
prence of it. Problem happens because of usage of hard_smp_processor_id()
which is hardcoded to zero in case of non SMP kernel. In kdump case second
kernel can boot on a cpu whose boot cpu id is not zero.
o Using boot_cpu_physical_apicid instead to hard set the presence of boot cpu.

It is dangerous to shutdown the apics in machine_crash_shutdown.
With my previous patch to initialize apics in init_IRQ we should be able to
boot a kernel without this. As long as we reinitialize the APICs we don't
care what state they were in during bootup.
This should make machine_crash_shutdown noticeably more reliable.
