When int 0x80 is called from long mode r8-r11 would leak out of the
kernel (or rather they would be filled with some values from
the kernel stack). I don't think it's a security issue because
the values come from the fixed stack frame which should be near
always user registers from a previous interrupt.
Still better fix it.
Longer term the register save macros need to be cleaned up
to avoid such mistakes in the future.
Original analysis from Richard Brunner, fix by me.

Fixes a obscure user space triggerable crash during oprofiling.
Oprofile calls profile_pc from NMIs even when user_mode(regs) is not true and
the program counter is inside the kernel lock section. This opens
a race - when a user program jumps to a kernel lock address and
a NMI happens before the illegal page fault exception is raised
and the program has a unmapped esp or ebp then the kernel could
oops. NMIs have a higher priority than exceptions so that could
happen.
Add user_mode checks to i386/x86-64 profile_pc to prevent that.

1) Explicitly traverse to the root looking for the "sbi".
2) Grab the "board#" property from the sbi's parent and
verify that this parent is an "io-unit" node.
3) Skip IRQ initialization when device lacks "reg" property.

Sabre and Psycho PCI controllers can have partial interrupt-map
properties, meaning that on-board devices don't match up to any
entries. Instead, they are fully specified from the beginning and
we should pass them directly to the IRQ translator as-is.
Also, fill in the necessary translator slots for the "graphics"
and "expansion UPA" interrupts on Sabre, Psycho, and SYSIO SBUS.
Increase PROMREG_MAX to 24, as seen on SUNW,ffb devices.
Finally, prevent accidentally writing past the end of the of_device
struct resource[] and irqs[] arrays. Spit out a log message when
we ignore some entries because there are too many of them.

Some -mm-only material leaked into a patch destined for mainline, and I didn't
notice.
This was the replacement of system_utsname with utsname() that's required by
the uts namespace patch. This patch reverts those changes (which are correct
in -mm) so that mainline UML builds again.

On i386, the user space accessor functions copy_from/to_user() both invoke
might_sleep(), do a quick sanity check, and then pass the work on to their
__copy_from/to_user() counterparts, which again invoke might_sleep().
Given that no actual work happens between these two calls, it is best to
eliminate one of the redundant might_sleep()s.

This patch removes the foolish assumption that SMP implied local apics.
That assumption is not-true on the Voyager subarch. This makes that
dependency explicit, and allows the code to build.
What gets disabled is just an optimization to get better crash dumps so the
support should work if there is a kernel that will initialization on the
voyager subarch under those harsh conditions.
Hopefully we can figure out how to initialize apics in init_IRQ and remove
the need to disable io_apics and this dependency.
