All kobjects require a dynamically allocated name now. We no longer
need to keep track if the name is statically assigned, we can just
unconditionally free() all kobject names on cleanup.

This reverts commit d4d25deca49ec2527a634557bf5a6cf449f85deb.
It tried to fix long standing bugzilla entries, but the solution was
reported to break other systems. The reporter of
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9791
tracked it down to this commit and confirmed that reverting the patch
restores the correct behaviour. It's too late in the release cycle to
find a better solution than reverting the commit to avoid regressions.

Our automated test suite looks for keywords like error, fail, warning in
the boot log. In the case when the nmi watchdog is determined to be
stuck in check_nmi_watchdog(), none of those keywords are displayed.
This patch adds a keyword, "WARNING:", so it makes it easier to notice
when the nmi watchdog isn't working correctly. Also add a proper
KERN_WARNING mark to this printout.

More than 3 years ago Niclas Gustafsson reported a 'stopped time'
problem:
> Watching the /proc/interrupts with 10s apart after the "stop".

> [root@s151 root]# more /proc/interrupts
> CPU0
> 0: 66413955 local-APIC-edge timer
[...]

This may be because buggy SMM firmware messes with the 8259A (configured
for a transparent mode -- yes that rare "local-APIC-edge" mode is tricky
;-) ) insanely.
this should resolve:

nmi_cpu_busy() must be available on !SMP too.
this is in preparation to a smp_call_function_mask() fix.

Since the x86 merge, lots of files that referenced their own filenames
are no longer correct. Rather than keep them up to date, just delete
them, as they add no real value.
Additionally:
- fix up comment formatting in scx200_32.c
- Remove a credit from myself in setup_64.c from a time when we had no SCM
- remove longwinded history from tsc_32.c which can be figured out from
git.

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.
Add a per cpu counter for irq0 and evaluate this instead of the global
irq0 count in the nmi watchdog code.
