Reintroduce ktimers feature "optimized away" by the ktimers review process:
multiple hrtimer states to enable the running of hrtimers without holding the
cpu-base-lock.

(The "optimized" rbtree hack carried only 2 states worth of information and we
need 4 for high resolution timers and dynamic ticks.)

Improve kernel/hrtimers.c locking: use a per-CPU base with a lock to control
locking of all clocks belonging to a CPU.  This simplifies code that needs to
lock all clocks at once.  This makes life easier for high-res timers and
dyntick.

For CONFIG_NO_HZ we need to calculate the next timer wheel event based on a
given jiffie value.  Extend the existing code to allow the extra 'now'
argument.  Provide a compability function for the existing implementations to
call the function with now == jiffies.  (This also solves the racyness of the
original code vs.  jiffies changing during the iteration.)

When searching for the next pending timer in the timer wheel we need to take
the cascade into account.  The current code has several problems:

 1. it looks into the previous cascade
 2. it ignores a pending cascade
 3. it ignores multiple cascades

Change the cascade lookup, so it calculates the array index from the point of
the next cascade and always look at the cascade buckets, when the cascade is
pending, i.e.  gets executed in the next timer softirq.  When multiple
cascades are pending, then lookup the next buckets too.

The Geode can safely use the TSC for highres, since:

1) Does not support frequency scaling,

2) The TSC _does_ count when the CPU is halted.  Furthermore, the Geode
   supports a mode called "suspension on halt", where Suspend mode (which
   interacts with the power management states) is entered.  TSC counting
   during suspend mode is controlled by bit 8 of the Bus Controller
   Configuration Register #0 (thanks Tom!).

3) no SMP :)

Check if "RTSC counts during suspension" and remove the requirement for
verification, so the clocksource code can safely select it as an timesource
for the highres timers subsystem.

make the TSC synchronization code more robust, and unify it between x86_64 and
i386.

The biggest change is the removal of the 'fix up TSCs' code on x86_64 and
i386, in some rare cases it was /causing/ time-warps on SMP systems.

The new code only checks for TSC asynchronity - and if it can prove a
time-warp (if it can observe the TSC going backwards when going from one CPU
to another within a critical section), then the TSC clock-source is turned
off.

The TSC synchronization-checking code also got moved into a separate file.

A previous cleanup misused need_poll, which had a fairly broken interface.
It implemented a growable array, changing the used elements count itself,
but leaving it up to the caller to fill in the actual elements, including
the entire array if the array had to be reallocated.  This worked because
the previous users were switching between two such structures, and the
elements were copied from the inactive array to the active array after
making sure the active array had enough room.

maybe_sigio_broken was made to use need_poll, but it was operating on a
single array, so when the buffer was reallocated, the previous contents
were lost.

This patch makes need_poll implement more sane semantics.  It merely
assures that the array is of the proper size and that the contents are
preserved.  It is up to the caller to adjust the used elements count and to
ensure that the proper elements are resent.

This manifested itself as a hang in 2.6.20 as the uninitialized buffer
convinced UML that one of its own file descriptors didn't support SIGIO and
needed to be watched by poll in a separate thread.  The result was an
interrupt flood as control traffic over this descriptor sparked interrupts,
which resulted in more control traffic, ad nauseum.
