Replace some instances of smp_llsc_mb() with a new macro
smp_mb__before_llsc().  It is used before ll/sc sequences that are
documented as needing write barrier semantics.

The default implementation of smp_mb__before_llsc() is just smp_llsc_mb(),
so there are no changes in semantics.

Also simplify definition of smp_mb(), smp_rmb(), and smp_wmb() to be just
barrier() in the non-SMP case.

On some CPUs, it is more efficient to disable and enable interrupts in the
kernel rather than use ll/sc for atomic operations.  But if we were to set
cpu_has_llsc to false, we would break the userspace futex interface (in
asm/futex.h).

We separate the two concepts, with a new predicate kernel_uses_llsc, that
lets us disable the kernel's use of ll/sc while still allowing the futex
code to use it.

Also there were a couple of cases in bitops.h where we were using ll/sc
unconditionally even if cpu_has_llsc were false.

The existing asm-generic/atomic.h only defines the
atomic_long type. This renames it to atomic-long.h
so we have a place to add a truly generic atomic.h
that can be used on all non-SMP systems.

The atomic_t type cannot currently be used in some header files because it
would create an include loop with asm/atomic.h.  Move the type definition
to linux/types.h to break the loop.

The branch optimization fixes in 2.6.21 introduced a bug in
atomic_sub_if_positive that causes it to return even when the sc
instruction fails. The result is that e.g. down_trylock becomes unreliable
as the semaphore counter is not always decremented.

atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency.
I agree (with Andi Kleen) this typeof is not needed and more error
prone. All the original atomic.h code that uses cmpxchg (which includes
the atomic_add_unless) uses defines instead of inline functions,
probably to circumvent a circular dependency between system.h and
atomic.h on powerpc (which my patch addresses). Therefore, it makes
sense to use inline functions that will provide type checking.

atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency.
Digging into the FRV architecture shows me that it is also affected by
such a circular dependency. Here is the diff applying this against the
rest of my atomic.h patches.

It applies over the atomic.h standardization patches.

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.

For the definition of atomic64_t atomic.h was relying on <asm/types.h>
having been included previously.  Before changeset

Several counters already have the need to use 64 atomic variables on 64 bit
platforms (see mm_counter_t in sched.h).  We have to do ugly ifdefs to fall
back to 32 bit atomic on 32 bit platforms.

The VM statistics patch that I am working on will also make more extensive
use of atomic64.

This patch introduces a new type atomic_long_t by providing definitions in
asm-generic/atomic.h that works similar to the c "long" type.  Its 32 bits
on 32 bit platforms and 64 bits on 64 bit platforms.

Also cleans up the determination of the mm_counter_t in sched.h.

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!
