The tracer may need to call preempt_enable and disable functions
for time keeping and such. The trace gets ugly when we see these
functions show up for all traces. To make the output cleaner
this patch adds preempt_enable_notrace and preempt_disable_notrace
to be used by tracer (and debugging) functions.

This adds a general mechanism whereby a task can request the scheduler to
notify it whenever it is preempted or scheduled back in.  This allows the
task to swap any special-purpose registers like the fpu or Intel's VT
registers.

Currently a simple

	void foo(void) { preempt_enable(); }

produces the following code on ARM:

foo:
	bic	r3, sp, #8128
	bic	r3, r3, #63
	ldr	r2, [r3, #4]
	ldr	r1, [r3, #0]
	sub	r2, r2, #1
	tst	r1, #4
	str	r2, [r3, #4]
	blne	preempt_schedule
	mov	pc, lr

The problem is that the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag is loaded _before_ the
preemption count is stored back, hence any interrupt coming within that
3 instruction window causing TIF_NEED_RESCHED to be set won't be
seen and scheduling won't happen as it should.

Nothing currently prevents gcc from performing that reordering.  There
is already a barrier() before the decrement of the preemption count, but
another one is needed between this and the TIF_NEED_RESCHED flag test
for proper code ordering.

a) in smp_lock.h #include of sched.h and spinlock.h moved under #ifdef
   CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL.

b) interrupt.h now explicitly pulls sched.h (not via smp_lock.h from
   hardirq.h as it used to)

c) in three more places we need changes to compensate for (a) - one place
   in arch/sparc needs string.h now, hardirq.h needs forward declaration of
   task_struct and preempt.h needs direct include of thread_info.h.

d) thread_info-related helpers in sched.h and thread_info.h put under
   ifndef __HAVE_THREAD_FUNCTIONS.  Obviously safe.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
