Fixes screwing up text output when doing a make oldconfig and viewing
help text of "OProfile AMD IBS support".  When the terminal is
not using an UTF8 locale / LANG.  "make config" breaks terminal output
and its not possible to continue.

Using "def_bool n" is pointless, simply using bool here appears more
appropriate.

Further, retaining such options that don't have a prompt and aren't
selected by anything seems also at least questionable.

Get rid of irq_desc[] array assumptions.

Preallocate 32 irq_desc, and irq_desc() will try to get more.

( No change in functionality is expected anywhere, except the odd build

  new irq_desc[] usage. )

This adds the generic HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK kconfig item.  Each arch should
add to some Kconfig file:

	select HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK

if the arch code uses all the latest hooks to enable newfangled tracing
and debugging code.  The comment in arch/Kconfig lists all the
prerequisite arch support.  When all these are available, setting
HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK will allow enabling any new features that depend on
the modern arch interfaces.

In many cases, especially in networking, it can be beneficial to know at
compile time whether the architecture can do unaligned accesses efficiently.
This patch introduces a new Kconfig symbol

	HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS

for that purpose and adds it to the powerpc and x86 architectures.  Also add
some documentation about alignment and networking, and especially one intended
use of this symbol.

In order to be able to debug things like the X server and programs using
the PPC Cell SPUs, the debugger needs to be able to access device memory
through ptrace and /proc/pid/mem.

This patch:

Add the generic_access_phys access function and put the hooks in place
to allow access_process_vm to access device or PPC Cell SPU memory.

Flag platforms as HAVE_CLK (or not) in Kconfig, based on whether they
support <linux/clk.h> calls, so that otherwise portable drivers which need
those calls can list that dependency.

Something like this is a prerequisite for merging the musb_hdrc driver,
currently used on platforms including Davinci, OMAP2430, OMAP3xx ...  and
the discrete TUSB6010 chip, which doesn't have a natural platform
dependency.  (Used with OMAP 2420 in current Nokia N8x0 tablets.)

This adds kernel/smp.c which contains helpers for IPI function calls. In
addition to supporting the existing smp_call_function() in a more efficient
manner, it also adds a more scalable variant called smp_call_function_single()
for calling a given function on a single CPU only.

The core of this is based on the x86-64 patch from Nick Piggin, lots of
changes since then. "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle@hp.com> has
contributed lots of fixes and suggestions as well. Also thanks to
Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> for reviewing RCU usage
and getting rid of the data allocation fallback deadlock.

Introduce new interfaces, dma_*map*_attrs(), for passing architecture-specific
attributes when memory is mapped and unmapped for DMA.  Give the interfaces
default implementations which ignore attributes.  Also introduce the
dma_{set|get}_attr() interfaces for setting and retrieving individual
attributes.  Define one attribute, DMA_ATTR_WRITE_BARRIER, in anticipation of
its use by ia64/sn.  Select whether architectures implement arch-specific
versions of the dma_*map*_attrs() interfaces via HAVE_DMA_ATTRS in Kconfig.

Add CONFIG_HAVE_KRETPROBES to the arch/<arch>/Kconfig file for relevant
architectures with kprobes support.  This facilitates easy handling of
in-kernel modules (like samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c) that depend on
kretprobes being present in the kernel.

Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for helping make the patch more lean.

Per Mathieu's suggestion, added CONFIG_KRETPROBES and fixed up dependencies.

I don't think it's a good idea to go back to making it per-architecture,
although that extensive "depends on <list-of-archiectures-here>" might
indicate that there certainly is room for cleanup there.

And I don't think it's wrong keeping it in kernel/Kconfig.xyz per se, I
just think it's wrong to (a) lump the code together when it really doesn't
necessarily need to and (b) show it to users as some kind of choice that
is tied together (whether it then has common code or not).

On the per-architecture side, I do think it would be better to *not* have
internal architecture knowledge in a generic file, and as such a line like

        depends on X86_32 || IA64 || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || X86_64 || AVR32

really shouldn't exist in a file like kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation.

It would be much better to do

        depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES

in that generic file, and then architectures that do support it would just
have a

        bool ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
                default y

in *their* architecture files. That would seem to be much more logical,
and is readable both for arch maintainers *and* for people who have no
clue - and don't care - about which architecture is supposed to support
which interface...

Sam Ravnborg:

Stuff it into a new file: arch/Kconfig
We can then extend this file to include all the 'trailing'
Kconfig things that are anyway equal for all ARCHs.

But it should be kept clean - so if we introduce such a file
then we should use ARCH_HAS_whatever in the arch specific Kconfig
files to enable stuff that is not shared.

[...]

The above suggestion is actually not exactly the best way to do it...
First the naming..
A quick grep shows following usage today (in Kconfig files)
ARCH_HAS        51
ARCH_SUPPORTS   4
HAVE_ARCH       7

ARCH_HAS is the clear winner.

In the common Kconfig file do:

config FOO
        depends on ARCH_HAS_FOO
        bool "bla bla"

config ARCH_HAS_FOO
        def_bool n

In the arch specific Kconfig file in a suitable place do:

config SUITABLE_OPTION
        select ARCH_HAS_FOO

The naming of ARCH_HAS_ is fixed and shall be:
ARCH_HAS_<config option it will enable>

Only a single line added pr. architecture.
And we will end up with a (maybe even commented) list of trivial selects.

- Yet another update :

Moving to HAVE_* now.
