Impact: Changes timebase calibration on Vmware.

v3->v2 : Abstract the hypervisor detection and feature (tsc_freq) request
	 behind a hypervisor.c file
v2->v1 : Add a x86_hyper_vendor field to the cpuinfo_x86 structure.
	 This avoids multiple calls to the hypervisor detection function.

This patch adds function to detect if we are running under VMware.
The current way to check if we are on VMware is following,
#  check if "hypervisor present bit" is set, if so read the 0x40000000
   cpuid leaf and check for "VMwareVMware" signature.
#  if the above fails, check the DMI vendors name for "VMware" string
   if we find one we query the VMware hypervisor port to check if we are
   under VMware.

The DMI + "VMware hypervisor port check" is needed for older VMware products,
which don't implement the hypervisor signature cpuid leaf.
Also note that since we are checking for the DMI signature the hypervisor
port should never be accessed on native hardware.

This patch also adds a hypervisor_get_tsc_freq function, instead of
calibrating the frequency which can be error prone in virtualized
environment, we ask the hypervisor for it. We get the frequency from
the hypervisor by accessing the hypervisor port if we are running on VMware.
Other hypervisors too can add code to the generic routine to get frequency on
their platform.

|     x86: convert cpuinfo_x86 array to a per_cpu array

We've had an extra field in cpuinfo_x86 which is cpu_index.
Unfortunately, voyager has never initialised this, although the only
noticeable impact seems to be that /proc/cpuinfo shows all zeros for
the processor ids.

Anyway, fix this by initialising the boot CPU properly and setting the
index when the secondaries update.

Impact: build fix on non-lockdep architectures

Some architectures do not support a way to read the irq flags that
is set from "local_irq_save(flags)" to determine if interrupts were
disabled or enabled. Ftrace uses this information to display to the user
if the trace occurred with interrupts enabled or disabled.

Besides the fact that those archs that do not support this will fail to
compile, unless they fix it, we do not want to have the trace simply
say interrupts were not disabled or they were enabled, without knowing
the real answer.

This patch adds a 'X' in the output to let the user know that the
architecture they are running on does not support a way for the tracer
to determine if interrupts were enabled or disabled. It also lets those
same archs compile with tracing enabled.

Impact: allow /dev/mem mmaps on non-PAT CPUs/platforms

Fix mmap to /dev/mem when CONFIG_X86_PAT is off and CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM is
off

mmap to /dev/mem on kernel memory has been failing since the
introduction of PAT (CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=n case).   Seems like
the check to avoid cache aliasing with PAT is kicking in even
when PAT is disabled. The bug seems to have crept in 2.6.26.

This patch makes sure that the mmap to regular
kernel memory succeeds if CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=n and
PAT is disabled, and the checks to avoid cache aliasing
still happens if PAT is enabled.
