Impact: new interfaces (not yet used)
For all the platforms out there, there is an infinite number of buggy
BIOSes. This adds infrastructure to treat BIOS interrupts more like
toxic waste and "glove box" them -- we switch out the register set,
perform the BIOS interrupt, and then restore the previous state.

Impact: fix build warnings and possibe compat misbehavior on IA64
Building a kernel on ia64 might trigger these ugly build warnings:
CC arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.o
In file included from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:55:
arch/ia64/ia32/ia32priv.h:290:1: warning: "elf_check_arch" redefined
In file included from include/linux/elf.h:7,
from include/linux/module.h:14,
from include/linux/ftrace.h:8,
from include/linux/syscalls.h:68,
from arch/ia64/ia32/sys_ia32.c:18:
arch/ia64/include/asm/elf.h:19:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
[...]
sys_ia32.c includes linux/syscalls.h which in turn includes linux/ftrace.h
to import the syscalls tracing prototypes.
But including ftrace.h can pull too much things for a low level file,
especially on ia64 where the ia32 private headers conflict with higher
level headers.
Now we isolate the syscall tracing headers in their own lightweight file.

Impact: Cleanup
Reorganizes the code in arch/x86/kernel/io_apic.c by
combining two '#ifdef CONFIG_SMP' regions. In addition
to making the code easier to understand the first
'#ifdef CONFIG_SMP' region is moved to a location later
in the file which will reduce the need for function
forward declarations when the code subsequently revised.
The only changes other than relocating code to a different
position in the file were the removal of the assign_irq_vector()
forward declaration which was no longer needed and some line
length reduction formatting changes.

Paul suggested we allow for data addresses to be recorded along with
the traditional IPs as power can provide these.
For now, only the software pagefault events provide data addresses,
but in the future power might as well for some events.
x86 doesn't seem capable of providing this atm.

Add a hwdev argument that is needed on some architectures
in order to access a per-device offset that is taken into
account when producing a physical address (also needed to
get from bus address to virtual address because the physical
address is an intermediate step).
Also make swiotlb_bus_to_virt weak so architectures can
override it.

Add support for Always Running APIC timer, CPUID_0x6_EAX_Bit2.
This bit means the APIC timer continues to run even when CPU is
in deep C-states.
The advantage is that we can use LAPIC timer on these CPUs
always, and there is no need for "slow to read and program"
external timers (HPET/PIT) and the timer broadcast logic
and related code in C-state entry and exit.

Per-task branch tracing installs a debug store context with the traced
task. This immediately results in the branch trace control bits to be
cleared for the next context switch of that task, if not set before.
Either per-cpu or per-task tracing are allowed at the same time.
An active per-cpu tracing would be disabled even if the per-task tracing
request is rejected and the task debug store context removed.
Check the tracing type (per-cpu or per-task) before installing a task
debug store context.

In order to stop branch tracing for a running task, we need to first
clear the branch tracing control bits before we may free the tracing
buffer.
If the traced task is running, the cpu might still trace that task
after the branch trace control bits have cleared.
Wait until the traced task has been scheduled out before proceeding.
A similar problem affects the task debug store context. We first remove
the context, then we need to wait until the task has been scheduled
out before we can free the context memory.

When the bts tracer is removed while the traced task is running,
the write to clear the bts tracer pointer races with context switch code.
Read the tracer once during a context switch.
When a new tracer is installed, the bts tracer is set in the ds context
before the tracer is initialized in order to claim the context for that
tracer.
This may result in write accesses using an uninitialized trace configuration
when scheduling timestamps have been requested.
Store active tracing flags separately and only set active flags after
the tracing configuration has been initialized.

Prepare for more generic overflow handling. The new perf_counter_overflow()
method will handle the generic bits of the counter overflow, and can return
a !0 return value, in which case the counter should be (soft) disabled, so
that it won't count until it's properly disabled.
