In some code I am developing I had occasion to change the type of a
variable.  This made the value put_user was putting to user space wrong.
But the code continued to build cleanly without errors.

Introducing a temporary fixes this problem and at least with gcc-3.3.5 does
not cause gcc any problems with optimizing out the temporary.  gcc-4.x
using SSA internally ought to be even better at optimizing out temporaries,
so I don't expect a temporary to become a problem.  Especially because in
all correct cases the types on both sides of the assignment to the
temporary are the same.

Several places in arch/i386/kernel/cpu and kernel/cpu were using __devinit
when they should have been __cpuinit.  Fixing that saves ~4K when
CONFIG_HOTPLUG && !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

Implement SMP alternatives, i.e.  switching at runtime between different
code versions for UP and SMP.  The code can patch both SMP->UP and UP->SMP.
The UP->SMP case is useful for CPU hotplug.

With CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG enabled the code switches to UP at boot time and
when the number of CPUs goes down to 1, and switches to SMP when the number
of CPUs goes up to 2.

Without CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG or on non-SMP-capable systems the code is
patched once at boot time (if needed) and the tables are released
afterwards.

The changes in detail:

  * The current alternatives bits are moved to a separate file,
    the SMP alternatives code is added there.

  * The patch adds some new elf sections to the kernel:
    .smp_altinstructions
	like .altinstructions, also contains a list
	of alt_instr structs.
    .smp_altinstr_replacement
	like .altinstr_replacement, but also has some space to
	save original instruction before replaving it.
    .smp_locks
	list of pointers to lock prefixes which can be nop'ed
	out on UP.
    The first two are used to replace more complex instruction
    sequences such as spinlocks and semaphores.  It would be possible
    to deal with the lock prefixes with that as well, but by handling
    them as special case the table sizes become much smaller.

 * The sections are page-aligned and padded up to page size, so they
   can be free if they are not needed.

 * Splitted the code to release init pages to a separate function and
   use it to release the elf sections if they are unused.

Print stack backtraces in multiple columns, saving screen space.  Number of
columns is configurable and defaults to one so behavior is
backwards-compatible.

Also removes the brackets around addresses when printing more
that one entry per line so they print as:
    <address>
instead of:
    [<address>]
This helps multiple entries fit better on one line.

This patch address several issues in the current BSD Secure Levels code:

o plaintext_to_sha1: Missing check for a NULL return from __get_free_page

o passwd_write_file: A page is leaked if the password is wrong.

o fix securityfs registration order

o seclvl_init is a mess and can't properly tolerate failures, failure
  path is upside down (deldif and delf should be switched)

Cleanups:

o plaintext_to_sha1: Use buffers passed in
o passwd_write_file: Use kmalloc() instead of get_zeroed_page()
o passwd_write_file: hashedPassword comparison is just memcmp
o s/ENOSYS/EINVAL/
o misc

(akpm: after some discussion it appears that the BSD secure levels feature
should be scheduled for removal.  But for now, let's fix these problems up).

We have noticed lockups during boot when stress testing kexec on ppc64.
Two cpus would deadlock in scheduler code trying to grab already taken
spinlocks.

The double_rq_lock code uses the address of the runqueue to order the
taking of multiple locks.  This address is a per cpu variable:

	if (rq1 < rq2) {
		spin_lock(&rq1->lock);
		spin_lock(&rq2->lock);
	} else {
		spin_lock(&rq2->lock);
		spin_lock(&rq1->lock);
	}

On the other hand, the code in wake_sleeping_dependent uses the cpu id
order to grab locks:

	for_each_cpu_mask(i, sibling_map)
		spin_lock(&cpu_rq(i)->lock);

This means we rely on the address of per cpu data increasing as cpu ids
increase.  While this will be true for the generic percpu implementation it
may not be true for arch specific implementations.

One way to solve this is to always take runqueues in cpu id order. To do
this we add a cpu variable to the runqueue and check it in the
double runqueue locking functions.
