- Kexec on panic functionality allocates memory for saving cpu registers in
  case of system crash event.  Address of this allocated memory needs to be
  exported to user space, which is used by kexec-tools.

- Previously, a single /sys/kernel/crash_notes entry was being exported as
  memory allocated was a single continuous array.  Now memory allocation being
  dyanmic and per cpu based, address of per cpu buffer is exported through
  "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/crash_notes"

- In case of system crash, current state of cpu registers is saved in memory
  in elf note format.  So far memory for storing elf notes was being allocated
  statically for NR_CPUS.

- This patch introduces dynamic allocation of memory for storing elf notes.
  It uses alloc_percpu() interface.  This should lead to better memory usage.

- Introduced based on Andi Kleen's and Eric W. Biederman's suggestions.

- This patch also moves memory allocation for elf notes from architecture
  dependent portion to architecture independent portion.  Now crash_notes is
  architecture independent.  The whole idea is that size of memory to be
  allocated per cpu (MAX_NOTE_BYTES) can be architecture dependent and
  allocation of this memory can be architecture independent.

It seems the "make UID16 support optional" patch was checked when it
edited the -tiny tree some time ago, but it wasn't checked whether it
still matches the current situation when it was submitted for inclusion
in -mm. This patch fixes the following bugs:
- ARCH_S390X does no longer exist, nowadays this has to be expressed
  through (S390 && 64BIT)
- in five architecture specific Kconfig files the UID16 options
  weren't removed

Additionally, it changes the fragile negative dependencies of UID16 to
positive dependencies (new architectures are more likely to not require
UID16 support).

Add three (generic) mutex fastpath implementations.

The mutex-xchg.h implementation is atomic_xchg() based, and should
work fine on every architecture.

The mutex-dec.h implementation is atomic_dec_return() based - this
one too should work on every architecture, but might not perform the
most optimally on architectures that have no atomic-dec/inc instructions.

The mutex-null.h implementation forces all calls into the slowpath. This
is used for mutex debugging, but it can also be used on platforms that do
not want (or need) a fastpath at all.
