The elf note saving code is currently duplicated over several
architectures.  This cleanup patch simply adds code to a common file and
then replaces the arch-specific code with calls to the newly added code.

The only drawback with this approach is that s390 doesn't fully support
kexec-on-panic which for that arch leads to introduction of unused code.

There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn,
prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus
generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add
#ifdefs.

the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine:

When we are unregistering a kprobe-booster, we can't release its
instruction buffer immediately on the preemptive kernel, because some
processes might be preempted on the buffer.  The freeze_processes() and
thaw_processes() functions can clean most of processes up from the buffer.
There are still some non-frozen threads who have the PF_NOFREEZE flag.  If
those threads are sleeping (not preempted) at the known place outside the
buffer, we can ensure safety of freeing.

However, the processing of this check routine takes a long time.  So, this
patch introduces the garbage collection mechanism of insn_slot.  It also
introduces the "dirty" flag to free_insn_slot because of efficiency.

The "clean" instruction slots (dirty flag is cleared) are released
immediately.  But the "dirty" slots which are used by boosted kprobes, are
marked as garbages.  collect_garbage_slots() will be invoked to release
"dirty" slots if there are more than INSNS_PER_PAGE garbage slots or if
there are no unused slots.

And add a PCI quirk for these platforms to check(which happens very late

This fixes the breakage(in x86_64) of this quirk due to cpu hotplug which

Until not so long ago, there were system log messages pointing to
inconsistent MTRR setup of the video frame buffer caused by the way vesafb
and X worked. While vesafb was fixed meanwhile, I believe fixing it there
only hides a shortcoming in the MTRR code itself, in that that code is not
symmetric with respect to the ordering of attempts to set up two (or more)
regions where one contains the other. In the current shape, it permits
only setting up sub-regions of pre-exisiting ones. The patch below makes
this symmetric.

While working on that I noticed a few more inconsistencies in that code,
namely
- use of 'unsigned int' for sizes in many, but not all places (the patch
  is converting this to use 'unsigned long' everywhere, which specifically
  might be necessary for x86-64 once a processor supporting more than 44
  physical address bits would become available)
- the code to correct inconsistent settings during secondary processor
  startup tried (if necessary) to correct, among other things, the value
  in IA32_MTRR_DEF_TYPE, however the newly computed value would never get
  used (i.e. stored in the respective MSR)
- the generic range validation code checked that the end of the
  to-be-added range would be above 1MB; the value checked should have been
  the start of the range
- when contained regions are detected, previously this was allowed only
  when the old region was uncacheable; this can be symmetric (i.e. the new
  region can also be uncacheable) and even further as per Intel's
  documentation write-trough and write-back for either region is also
  compatible with the respective opposite in the other

Add a way to disable the timer IRQ routing check via a boot option.  The
VMI timer code uses this to avoid triggering the pester Mingo code, which
probes for some very unusual and broken motherboard routings.  It fires
100% of the time when using a paravirtual delay mechanism instead of using
a realtime delay, since there is no elapsed real time, and the 4 timer IRQs
have not yet been delivered.

In addition, it is entirely possible, though improbable, that this bug
could surface on real hardware which picks a particularly bad time to enter
SMM mode, causing a long latency during one of the timer IRQs.

While here, make check_timer be __init.

Add the three bare TLB accessor functions to paravirt-ops.  Most amusingly,
flush_tlb is redefined on SMP, so I can't call the paravirt op flush_tlb.
Instead, I chose to indicate the actual flush type, kernel (global) vs. user
(non-global).  Global in this sense means using the global bit in the page
table entry, which makes TLB entries persistent across CR3 reloads, not
global as in the SMP sense of invoking remote shootdowns, so the term is
confusingly overloaded.
