2006-12-07[PATCH] i386: espfix cleanupStas Sergeev
Clean up the espfix code: - Introduced PER_CPU() macro to be used from asm - Introduced GET_DESC_BASE() macro to be used from asm - Rewrote the fixup code in asm, as calling a C code with the altered %ss appeared to be unsafe - No longer altering the stack from a .fixup section - 16bit per-cpu stack is no longer used, instead the stack segment base is patched the way so that the high word of the kernel and user %esp are the same. - Added the limit-patching for the espfix segment.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
