Currently a SIGTRAP can denote any one of below reasons.
	- Breakpoint hit
	- H/W debug register hit
	- Single step
	- Signal sent through kill() or rasie()

Architectures like powerpc/parisc provides infrastructure to demultiplex
SIGTRAP signal by passing down the information for receiving SIGTRAP through
si_code of siginfot_t structure. Here is an attempt is generalise this
infrastructure by extending it to x86 and x86_64 archs.

Such a crash is possible if the CPU in this system is a 64-bit
processor which doesn't support NX (ie, old Intel P4 -based64-bit
processors).

Certainly, if we support such processors, then we should start with
_PAGE_NX initially clear in __supported_pte_flags, and then set it once
we've established that the processor does indeed support NX.  That will
prevent early_ioremap - or anything else - from trying to set it.

The simple fix is to simply call check_efer() earlier.

We use the HPET only in 32bit mode because:
1) some HPETs are 32bit only
2) on i386 there is no way to read/write the HPET atomic 64bit wide

The HPET code unification done by the "moron of the year" did
not take into account that unsigned long is different on 32 and
64 bit.

This thinko results in a possible endless loop in the clockevents
code, when the return comparison fails due to the 64bit/332bit
unawareness. 

unsigned long cnt = (u32) hpet_read() + delta can wrap over 32bit.
but the final compare will fail and return -ETIME causing endless
loops.

The TSC calibration function is still very complicated, but this makes
it at least a little bit less so by moving the PIT part out into a
helper function of its own.
Tested-by: NLarry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net>
Signed-of-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Larry Finger reported at http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/1/90:
An ancient laptop of mine started throwing errors from b43legacy when
I started using 2.6.27 on it. This has been bisected to commit bfc0f594
"x86: merge tsc calibration".

The unification of the TSC code adopted mostly the 64bit code, which
prefers PMTIMER/HPET over the PIT calibration.

Larrys system has an AMD K6 CPU. Such systems are known to have
PMTIMER incarnations which run at double speed. This results in a
miscalibration of the TSC by factor 0.5. So the resulting calibrated
CPU/TSC speed is half of the real CPU speed, which means that the TSC
based delay loop will run half the time it should run. That might
explain why the b43legacy driver went berserk.

On the other hand we know about systems, where the PIT based
calibration results in random crap due to heavy SMI/SMM
disturbance. On those systems the PMTIMER/HPET based calibration logic
with SMI detection shows better results.

According to Alok also virtualized systems suffer from the PIT
calibration method.

The solution is to use a more wreckage aware aproach than the current
either/or decision.

1) reimplement the retry loop which was dropped from the 32bit code
during the merge. It repeats the calibration and selects the lowest
frequency value as this is probably the closest estimate to the real
frequency

2) Monitor the delta of the TSC values in the delay loop which waits
for the PIT counter to reach zero. If the maximum value is
significantly different from the minimum, then we have a pretty safe
indicator that the loop was disturbed by an SMI.

3) keep the pmtimer/hpet reference as a backup solution for systems
where the SMI disturbance is a permanent point of failure for PIT
based calibration

4) do the loop iteration for both methods, record the lowest value and
decide after all iterations finished.

5) Set a clear preference to PIT based calibration when the result
makes sense.

The implementation does the reference calibration based on
HPET/PMTIMER around the delay, which is necessary for the PIT anyway,
but keeps separate TSC values to ensure the "independency" of the
resulting calibration values.

Tested on various 32bit/64bit machines including Geode 266Mhz, AMD K6
(affected machine with a double speed pmtimer which I grabbed out of
the dump), Pentium class machines and AMD/Intel 64 bit boxen.

It retains the option for explicitly overriding the strings, but by
making that require a separate action it should at least be less

During CPU hot-remove the sysfs directory created by
threshold_create_bank(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_amd_64.c, has to be removed before
its parent directory, created by mce_create_device(), defined in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce_64.c .  Moreover, when the CPU in
question is hotplugged again, obviously the latter has to be created
before the former.  At present, the right ordering is not enforced,
because all of these operations are carried out by CPU hotplug
notifiers which are not appropriately ordered with respect to each
other.  This leads to serious problems on systems with two or more
multicore AMD CPUs, among other things during suspend and hibernation.

Fix the problem by placing threshold bank CPU hotplug callbacks in
mce_cpu_callback(), so that they are invoked at the right places,
if defined.  Additionally, use kobject_del() to remove the sysfs
directory associated with the kobject created by
kobject_create_and_add() in threshold_create_bank(), to prevent the
kernel from crashing during CPU hotplug operations on systems with
two or more multicore AMD CPUs.
