to instrument context switch they can add a probe to schedule()

Align the start of the per-cpu section to the configured number of bytes in a
cache line.  This stops a BUG_ON() from triggering in load_module() when
DEFINE_PER_CPU() is used in a module and the section isn't cacheline-aligned.

[ AK: I redid Kevin's fix to be simpler, but the idea and original
  analysis of the problem is from Kevin]

This avoid allocation failures on some SATA systems like Nvidia CK8
when the IOMMU gets fragmented. Modern SATA devices have quite large queues
(128 entries) and the FS with ext2/3 is good enough now that it often
passes whole 128 page sg lists down to the driver. These require
512K of continuous free space in the IOMMU aperture to map when merged.
When the IOMMU is fragmented this could lead to spurious IO errors
due to failing mappings.

Short term fix is to just try to map the SG list again unmerged
page by page - this way fragmentation doesn't matter anymore.
The code for that was already there, but it just wasn't enabled for the
merge case.

According to Kevin at least the Nvidia device doesn't seem to benefit
from merging much anyways, so the only slowdown is from trying
to do an unnecessary merge attempt.

Kevin plans to implement better fragmentation avoidance in the future,
but that wouldn't be 2.6.16 material.

TBD: should add some statistic counters to count how often that really
happens.

Currently, x86_64 and ia64 arches do not clear the corresponding bits
in the node's cpumask when a cpu goes down or cpu bring up is cancelled.
This is buggy since there are pieces of common code where the cpumask is
checked in the cpu down code path to decide on things (like in  the slab
down path).  PPC does the right thing, but x86_64 and ia64 don't (This
was the reason Sonny hit upon a slab bug during cpu offline on ppc and
could not reproduce on other arches).  This patch fixes it for x86_64.
I won't attempt ia64 as I cannot test it.

Credit for spotting this should go to Alok.

This is temporary until we can get new optimized functions
for these CPUs.

This undoes changes that were done in 2.6.15 and in 2.6.16-rc1,
essentially bringing the code back to 2.6.14 level. Only change
is I renamed the X86_FEATURE_K8_C flag to X86_FEATURE_REP_GOOD
and fixed the check for the flag and also fixed some comments.

Another piece from the no-idle-tick patch.

This can be enabled with the "apicmaintimer" option.

This is mainly useful when the PIT/HPET interrupt is unreliable.
Note there are some systems that are known to stop the APIC
timer in C3. For those it will never work, but this case
should be automatically detected.

It also only works with PM timer right now. When HPET is used
the way the main timer handler computes the delay doesn't work.

It should be a bit more efficient because there is one less
regular interrupt to process on the boot processor.
