Introduce architecture dependent kretprobe blacklists to prohibit users
from inserting return probes on the function in which kprobes can be
inserted but kretprobes can not.
This patch also removes "__kprobes" mark from "__switch_to" on x86_64 and
registers "__switch_to" to the blacklist on x86-64, because that mark is to
prohibit user from inserting only kretprobe.

x86(-64) are the last architectures still using the page fault notifier
cruft for the kprobes page fault hook. This patch converts them to the
proper direct calls, and removes the now unused pagefault notifier bits
aswell as the cruft in kprobes.c that was related to this mess.
I know Andi didn't really like this, but all other architecture maintainers
agreed the direct calls are much better and besides the obvious cruft
removal a common way of dealing with kprobes across architectures is
important aswell.

This is from an earlier message from 'Christoph Lameter':
cpu_core_map is currently an array defined using NR_CPUS. This means that
we overallocate since we will rarely really use maximum configured cpu.
If we put the cpu_core_map into the per cpu area then it will be allocated
for each processor as it comes online.
This means that the core map cannot be accessed until the per cpu area
has been allocated. Xen does a weird thing here looping over all processors
and zeroing the masks that are not yet allocated and that will be zeroed
when they are allocated. I commented the code out.

The 64bit SMP bootup is slightly different to the 32bit one. It enables
the boot CPU local APIC timer before all CPUs are brought up. Some AMD C1E
systems have the C1E feature flag only set in the secondary CPU. Due to
the early enable of the boot CPU local APIC timer the APIC timer is
registered as a fully functional device. When we detect the wreckage during
the bringup of the secondary CPU, we need to force the boot CPU into
broadcast mode.
Check the C1E caused APIC timer disable, when the secondary APIC timer is
initialized. If the boot CPU APIC timer was registered as a functional
clock event device, then fix this up and utilize the
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_FORCE mechanism to force the already
registered boot CPU APIC timer into broadcast mode.
Tested by force injecting the failure mode.

On at least ARM (and I'm told MIPS too) dma_free_coherent() has a newish
call context requirement: unlike its dma_alloc_coherent() sibling, it may
not be called with IRQs disabled. (This was new behavior on ARM as of late
2005, caused by ARM SMP updates.) This little surprise can be annoyingly
driver-visible.
Since it looks like that restriction won't be removed, this patch changes
the definition of the API to include that requirement. Also, to help catch
nonportable drivers, it updates the x86 and swiotlb versions to include the
relevant warnings. (I already observed that it trips on the
bus_reset_tasklet of the new firewire_ohci driver.)

The clock events merge introduced a change to the nmi watchdog code to
handle the not longer increasing local apic timer count in the
broadcast mode. This is fine for UP, but on SMP it pampers over a
stuck CPU which is not handling the broadcast interrupt due to the
unconditional sum up of local apic timer count and irq0 count.
To cover all cases we need to keep track on which CPU irq0 is
handled. In theory this is CPU#0 due to the explicit disabling of irq
balancing for irq0, but there are systems which ignore this on the
hardware level. The per cpu irq0 accounting allows us to remove the
irq0 to CPU0 binding as well.

Fix up conflicts manually in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt
and my new least favourite crap, the "mod_devicetable" support in the
files include/linux/mod_devicetable.h and scripts/mod/file2alias.c.
(The latter files seem to be explicitly _designed_ to get conflicts when
different subsystems work with them - that have an absolutely horrid
lack of subsystem separation!)
