This adds markers two important points in the spufs code and a new
module (sputrace.ko) that allows reading these out through a proc file.

Long-term I'd rather see something like lttng extended to use the spufs
instrumentation, but for now I think this is a good enough quick
solution.  We'll probably want to add various addition event in addition
to that ones I have already.

Commit aed3a8c9 introduced a
definition of notify_spus_active in .../cell/spu_syscalls.c, and
another definition under #ifndef MODULE in .../cell/spufs/sched.c.
The latter is not necessary and causes the build to fail when
CONFIG_SPU_FS=y, so this removes it.  It also removes the export
of do_notify_spus_active, which is unnecessary.

 Arnd Bergmann <arnd.bergman@de.ibm.com>; and
 Luke Browning <lukebr@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently, spu contexts need to be loaded to the SPU in order to take
class 0 and class 1 exceptions.

This change makes the actual interrupt-handlers much simpler (ie,
set the exception information in the context save area), and defers the
handling code to the spufs_handle_class[01] functions, called from
spufs_run_spu.

This should improve the concurrency of the spu scheduling leading to
greater SPU utilization when SPUs are overcommited.

is compiled directly into the kernel.

This change moves these components of spufs into the kernel.

The lscsa and switch objects are fairly straightforward to move in.

For the fault.o module, we split the fault-handling code into two
parts: a/p/p/c/spu_fault.c and a/p/p/c/spufs/fault.c. The former is for
the in-kernel spu_handle_mm_fault function, and we move the rest of the
fault-handling code into spufs.

Affinity reference point location (gang->aff_ref_spu) is reset
when the whole gang is descheduled. However, the last member of
a gang can be descheduled while we are trying to schedule another
member of the gang. This was leading to a race condition, and
the code was using gang->aff_ref_spu in an unsafe manner.

By holding the gang->aff_mutex a little bit longer, and increment
gang->aff_sched_count (which controls when gang->aff_ref_spu
should be reset) a little bit earlier, the problem is fixed.

The previously used parameter, 'ctx', is just the iterator of the

invalid at the end of the loop. Also, the right context to seek
for information when defining the reference ctx location
_is_ the reference ctx.

This sorts out the various lists and related locks in the spu code.

In detail:

 - the per-node free_spus and active_list are gone.  Instead struct spu
   gained an alloc_state member telling whether the spu is free or not
 - the per-node spus array is now locked by a per-node mutex, which
   takes over from the global spu_lock and the per-node active_mutex
 - the spu_alloc* and spu_free function are gone as the state change is
   now done inline in the spufs code.  This allows some more sharing of
   code for the affinity vs normal case and more efficient locking
 - some little refactoring in the affinity code for this locking scheme

Addition of a spufs-global "cbe_info" array. Each entry contains information
about one Cell/B.E. node, namelly:
* list of spus (both free and busy spus are in this list);
* list of free spus (replacing the static spu_list from spu_base.c)
* number of spus;
* number of reserved (non scheduleable) spus.

SPE affinity implementation actually requires only access to one spu per
BE node (since it implements its own pointer to walk through the other spus
of the ring) and the number of scheduleable spus (n_spus - non_sched_spus)
However having this more general structure can be useful for other
functionalities, concentrating per-cbe statistics / data.

We use the same algorithms as the CPU scheduler to calculate the time
slice length, and for now we also use the same timeslice length as the
CPU scheduler. This might be not enough for good performance and can be
changed after some benchmarking.

Note that currently we do not boost the priority for contexts waiting
on the runqueue for a long time, so contexts with a higher nice value
could starve ones with less priority.  This could easily be fixed once
