x86: merge tsc_init and clocksource code
<--------------
The problem is that the TSC unification missed these Makefile rules
in arch/x86/kernel/Makefile:
# Do not profile debug and lowlevel utilities
CFLAGS_REMOVE_tsc_64.o = -pg
CFLAGS_REMOVE_tsc_32.o = -pg
...
CFLAGS_tsc_64.o := $(nostackp)
...
which rules make sure that various instrumentation and debugging
facilities are disabled for code that might end up in a VDSO - such as
the TSC code.

From this commit on CONFIG_X86_VISWS is just another (default-disabled)

Move the basic global variable definitions and sched_clock handling in the
common "tsc.c" file.
- Unify notsc kernel command line handling for 32 bit and 64bit.
- Functional changes for 64bit.
- "tsc_disabled" is updated if "notsc" is passed at boottime.
- Fallback to jiffies for sched_clock, incase notsc is passed on
commandline.

TLB shootdown for SGI UV.
Depends on patch (in tip/x86/irq):
x86-update-macros-used-by-uv-platform.patch Jack Steiner May 29
This patch provides the ability to flush TLB's in cpu's that are not on
the local node. The hardware mechanism for distributing the flush
messages is the UV's "broadcast assist unit".
The hook to intercept TLB shootdown requests is a 2-line change to
native_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_64.c).
This code has been tested on a hardware simulator. The real hardware
is not yet available.
The shootdown statistics are provided through /proc/sgi_uv/ptc_statistics.
The use of /sys was considered, but would have required the use of
many /sys files. The debugfs was also considered, but these statistics
should be available on an ongoing basis, not just for debugging.
Issues to be fixed later:
- The IRQ for the messaging interrupt is currently hardcoded as 200
(see UV_BAU_MESSAGE). It should be dynamically assigned in the future.
- The use of appropriate udelay()'s is untested, as they are a problem
in the simulator.

This patch adds structs for the paravirt clocksource ABI
used by both xen and kvm (pvclock-abi.h).
It also adds some helper functions to read system time and
wall clock time from a paravirtual clocksource (pvclock.[ch]).
They are based on the xen code. They are enabled using
CONFIG_PARAVIRT_CLOCK.
Subsequent patches of this series will put the code in use.

The leftovers of the i8259 unification have nothing to do with i8259

Make conversion of i8259 very mechanical -- i8259 was generated by
diff -D, with too different parts left in i8259_32 and
i8259_64.c. Only "by hand" changes were removal of #ifdef from middle
of the comment (prevented compilation) and removal of one static to
allow splitting into files.
Of course, it will need some cleanups now, and those will follow.

This patch adds a feature to dynamically replace the ftrace code
with the jmps to allow a kernel with ftrace configured to run
as fast as it can without it configured.
The way this works, is on bootup (if ftrace is enabled), a ftrace
function is registered to record the instruction pointer of all
places that call the function.
Later, if there's still any code to patch, a kthread is awoken
(rate limited to at most once a second) that performs a stop_machine,
and replaces all the code that was called with a jmp over the call
to ftrace. It only replaces what was found the previous time. Typically
the system reaches equilibrium quickly after bootup and there's no code
patching needed at all.
e.g.
call ftrace /* 5 bytes */
is replaced with
jmp 3f /* jmp is 2 bytes and we jump 3 forward */
3:
When we want to enable ftrace for function tracing, the IP recording
is removed, and stop_machine is called again to replace all the locations
of that were recorded back to the call of ftrace. When it is disabled,
we replace the code back to the jmp.
Allocation is done by the kthread. If the ftrace recording function is
called, and we don't have any record slots available, then we simply
skip that call. Once a second a new page (if needed) is allocated for
recording new ftrace function calls. A large batch is allocated at
boot up to get most of the calls there.
Because we do this via stop_machine, we don't have to worry about another
CPU executing a ftrace call as we modify it. But we do need to worry
about NMI's so all functions that might be called via nmi must be
annotated with notrace_nmi. When this code is configured in, the NMI code
will not call notrace.

Fixed up fairly trivial conflicts in arch/x86/pci/{init.c,pci.h} due to
OLPC support manually.
This adds support for OLPC XO hardware. Open Firmware on XOs don't contain
the VSA, so it is necessary to emulate the PCI BARs in the kernel. This also
adds functionality for running EC commands, and a CONFIG_OLPC.
A number of OLPC drivers depend upon CONFIG_OLPC.
olpc_ec_timeout is a hack to work around Embedded Controller bugs.

This is the guest part of kvm clock implementation
It does not do tsc-only timing, as tsc can have deltas
between cpus, and it did not seem worthy to me to keep
adjusting them.
We do use it, however, for fine-grained adjustment.
Other than that, time comes from the host.
