Without this, the default implementation is a no op which is completely
wrong with a VIVT cache, and usage of sg_copy_buffer() produces
unpredictable results.

Fix interaction with new generic header stuff as added by:
commit 6103ec56c65c33774c7c38652c8204120c3c7519
Author: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Date: Wed May 13 22:56:27 2009 +0000
asm-generic: add generic ABI headers
The problem is that asm/signal.h has been made to include asm-generic/signal.h,
but the redundant stuff from asm/signal.h has not been discarded, leading to
multiple redefinitions.

The unaligned address exception handler (and others) does not scan the
fixup tables before oopsing. This is bad because it means passing a
badly aligned pointer from user space might crash the kernel.
Fix this by scanning the fixup tables in _exception(). This should
resolve the issue for unaligned addresses as well as other less common
exceptions that might be happening during a userspace access. The page
fault handler already does fixup processing.

This patch (as1241) renames a bunch of functions in the PM core.
Rather than go through a boring list of name changes, suffice it to
say that in the end we have a bunch of pairs of functions:
device_resume_noirq dpm_resume_noirq
device_resume dpm_resume
device_complete dpm_complete
device_suspend_noirq dpm_suspend_noirq
device_suspend dpm_suspend
device_prepare dpm_prepare
in which device_X does the X operation on a single device and dpm_X
invokes device_X for all devices in the dpm_list.
In addition, the old dpm_power_up and device_resume_noirq have been
combined into a single function (dpm_resume_noirq).
Lastly, dpm_suspend_start and dpm_resume_end are the renamed versions
of the former top-level device_suspend and device_resume routines.

Rename the functions performing "_noirq" dev_pm_ops
operations from device_power_down() and device_power_up()
to device_suspend_noirq() and device_resume_noirq().
The new function names are chosen to show that the functions
are responsible for calling the _noirq() versions to finalize
the suspend/resume operation. The current function names do
not perform power down/up anymore so the names may be misleading.
Global function renames:
- device_power_down() -> device_suspend_noirq()
- device_power_up() -> device_resume_noirq()
Static function renames:
- suspend_device_noirq() -> __device_suspend_noirq()
- resume_device_noirq() -> __device_resume_noirq()

The downside of the last patch which made restore_flags and irq_enable
check interrupts is that they are now too big to be patched directly
into the callsites, so the C versions are always used.
But the C versions go via PV_CALLEE_SAVE_REGS_THUNK which saves all
the registers. In fact, we don't need any registers in the fast path,
so we can do better than this if we actually code them in assembler.
The results are in the noise, but since it's about the same amount of
code, it's worth applying.

lguest never checked for pending interrupts when enabling interrupts, and
things still worked. However, it makes a significant difference to TCP
performance, so it's time we fixed it by introducing a pending_irq flag
and checking it on irq_restore and irq_enable.
These two routines are now too big to patch into the 8/10 bytes
patch space, so we drop that code.
Note: The high latency on interrupt delivery had a very curious
effect: once everything else was optimized, networking without GSO was
faster than networking with GSO, since more interrupts were sent and
hence a greater chance of one getting through to the Guest!
Note2: (Almost) Closing the same loophole for iret doesn't have any
measurable effect, so I'm leaving that patch for the moment.

Copy from arch/x86/kernel/irqinit_32.c: we don't use the vectors beyond
LGUEST_IRQS (if any), but we might as well set them all.

Sachin Sant reported these compiler errors:
CC arch/powerpc/kernel/power7-pmu.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/power7-pmu.c:297: error: PERF_COUNT_CPU_CYCLES undeclared here (not in a function)
Which happened because a last-minute rename of symbols crossed with
the Power7 support patch.
Fix this by using the new symbol names.

Everyone cut and paste this comment from my original one. We now do
it generically, so cut the comments.

It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
which point into the (freed) init text of modules. These could cause
future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup. The only case I know of is
kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).
Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
patch is more general.
This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
use the standard lib/extable.c sort code. Alpha and IA64 use relative
addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.
Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
actually trimming them.

As Christoph Hellwig suggested, module_alloc() actually can be
unified for i386 and x86_64 (of course, also UML).
