Targetting paravirt, this patch introduces native_read_tscp, in
place of rdtscp() macro. When in a paravirt guest, this will
involve a function call, and thus, cannot be done in the vdso area.
These users then have to call the native version directly

This patch splits get_cycles_sync() into __get_cycles_sync(),
and the rdtscll part. Paravirt guests cannot issue rdtscl directly,
as it involves a function call in vdso area.
So, using the __get_cycles_sync() base, we introduce vget_cycles_sync,
which then calls the native version of rdtscll. Ideally, however, a guest
should define its own clocksource, together with a vread function

Among other things, using -traditional as a gcc option stops us from
using macro token pasting, which is a feature we heavily rely on.
There was still a use of -traditional in arch/x86/kernel/Makefile_64,
which this patch removes.
I don't see any problems building kernels in my x86_64 box without
-traditional.

commit c434b7a6aedfe428ad17cd61b21b125a7b7a29ce
(x86: avoid wasting IRQs for PCI devices)
created a concept of "IRQ compression" on i386
to conserve IRQ numbers on systems with many
sparsely populated IO APICs.
The same scheme was also added to x86_64,
but later removed when x86_64 recieved an IRQ over-haul
that made it unnecessary -- including per-CPU
IRQ vectors that greatly increased the IRQ capacity
on the machine.
i386 has not received the analogous over-haul,
and thus a previous attempt to delete IRQ compression
from i386 was rejected on the theory that there may
exist machines that actually need it. The fact is
that the author of IRQ compression patch was unable
to confirm the actual existence of such a system.
As a result, all i386 kernels with IOAPIC support
pay the following:
1. confusion
IRQ compression re-names the traditional IOAPIC
pin numbers (aka ACPI GSI's) into sequential IRQ #s:
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1c.0[A] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1c.1[B] -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1c.2[C] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 18
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1c.3[D] -> GSI 23 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1c.4[A] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
This makes /proc/interrupts look different
depending on system configuration and device probe order.
It is also different than the x86_64 kernel running
on the exact same system. As a result, programmers
get confused when comparing systems.
2. complexity
The IRQ code in Linux is already overly complex,
and IRQ compression makes it worse. There have
already been two bug workarounds related to IRQ
compression -- the IRQ0 timer workaround and
the VIA PCI IRQ workaround.
3. size
All i386 kernels with IOAPIC support contain an int[4096] --
a 4 page array to contain the renamed IRQs.
So while the irq compression code on i386 should really
be deleted -- even before merging the x86_64 irq-overhaul,
this patch simply disables it on all high volume systems
to avoid problems #1 and #2 on most all i386 systems.
A large system with pin numbers >=64 will still have compression
to conserve limited IRQ numbers for sparse IOAPICS. However,
the vast majority of the planet, those with only pin numbers < 64
will use an identity GSI -> IRQ mapping.

We have a lot of code which differs only by the naming of specific
members of structures that contain registers. In order to enable
additional unifications, this patch drops the e- or r- size prefix
from the register names in struct pt_regs, and drops the x- prefixes
for segment registers on the 32-bit side.
This patch also performs the equivalent renames in some additional
places that might be candidates for unification in the future.

This changes the single-step support to use a new thread_info flag
TIF_FORCED_TF instead of the PT_DTRACE flag in task_struct.ptrace.
This keeps arch implementation uses out of this non-arch field.
This changes the ptrace access to eflags to mask TF and maintain
the TIF_FORCED_TF flag directly if userland sets TF, instead of
relying on ptrace_signal_deliver. The 64-bit and 32-bit kernels
are harmonized on this same behavior. The ptrace_signal_deliver
approach works now, but this change makes the low-level register
access code reliable when called from different contexts than a
ptrace stop, which will be possible in the future.
The 64-bit do_debug exception handler is also changed not to clear TF
from user-mode registers. This matches the 32-bit kernel's behavior.
