Now that finally all supported versions of binutils have functioning
support for .subsection use .subsection to tweak the branch prediction

I did not modify the R10000 errata variants because it seems unclear if
this will invalidate the workaround which actually relies on the cheesy
prediction of branch likely to cause a misspredict if the sc was
successful.

Also the R4000 / R4600 LL/SC instructions imply a sync so no explicit sync
needed.

With recent rewrite for generic bitops, fls() for 32bit kernel with
MIPS64_CPU is broken.  Also, ffs(), fls() should be defined the same
way as the libc and compiler built-in routines (returns int instead of
unsigned long).

Bitmap functions for the minix filesystem and the ext2 filesystem except
ext2_set_bit_atomic() and ext2_clear_bit_atomic() do not require the atomic
guarantees.

But these are defined by using atomic bit operations on several architectures.
 (cris, frv, h8300, ia64, m32r, m68k, m68knommu, mips, s390, sh, sh64, sparc,
sparc64, v850, and xtensa)

This patch switches to non atomic bit operation.

fls was the only called of flz, so fold flz into fls, same for the
__ilog2 call.  Delete the now unused flz function.

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!
