Since APM BIOS segment limits are now fixed, set them in head.S GDT and don't use the complicated _set_limit() macro expansion.

APM BIOSes have many bugs regarding proper representation of the appropriate segment limits for calling the BIOS. By default, APM_RELAX_SEGMENTS is always turned on to support running the APM BIOS on these buggy machines. Keeping 64k limits poses very little danger to the kernel, because the pages where the APM BIOS is located will always be in low physical memory BIOS areas, which should already be marked reserved, and only buggy BIOSes would possibly overstep the segment bounds with writes to data anyway. Since forcing stricter limits breaks many machines and is not default behavior, it seems reasonable to deprecate the older code which may cause APM BIOS to fault. If you really have a badly enough broken APM BIOS that you have to turn off APM_RELAX_SEGMENTS, seems like the best recourse here would be to disable the APM BIOS and / or not compile it into your kernel to begin with, and / or add your system to the known bad list. The reason I want to deprecate this code is there is underlying brokenness with the set_limit macros, and getting rid of many of the call sites rather than rewriting them seems to be the simplest and most correct course of action.

Rather than blindly re-enabling interrupts in die(), save their state upon entry and then restore that state. If the kernel is in really bad condition and faults with interrupts disabled, re-enabling them in die() may cause even more trouble, implying more chances of data corruption.

Make GDT page aligned and page padded to support running inside of a hypervisor. This prevents false sharing of the GDT page with other hot data, which is not allowed in Xen, and causes performance problems in VMware. Rather than go back to the old method of statically allocating the GDT (which wastes unneded space for non-present CPUs), the GDT for APs is allocated dynamically.

The attached patch improves the signal handling: (1) It makes do_signal() static as it isn't called from anywhere outside of the arch code. (2) It removes the regs argument to all the static functions within that file, using __frame instead (which is the same thing held in a global register).

The attached patch makes FRV signal handling work properly: (1) After do_notify_resume() has been called, the work flags must be checked again (there may be another signal to deliver or the process might require rescheduling for instance). (2) After the signal frame is set up on the userspace stack, ptrace() should be given an opportunity to single-step into the signal handler. (3) The error state from setting up a signal frame should be passed back up the call chain. (4) The segfault handler shouldn't be preemptively reset in the arch if we fail to deliver a SEGV signal: force_sig() will take care of that.

Don't use printk() where "current_thread_info()" is crap. Until when we switch to running on init_stack, current_thread_info() evaluates to crap. Printk uses "current" at times (in detail, ¤t is evaluated with CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK to check the spinlock owner task). And this leads to random segmentation faults. Exactly, what happens is that ¤t = *(current_thread_info()), i.e. round down $esp and dereference the value. I.e. access the stack below $esp, which causes SIGSEGV on a VM_GROWSDOWN vma (see arch/i386/mm/fault.c).

It turns out that commit f9bd170a broke the cascade from XICS to i8259 on pSeries machines; specifically we ended up not ever doing the EOI on the XICS for the cascade. The result was that interrupts from the serial ports (and presumably any other devices using ISA interrupts) didn't get through. This fixes it and also simplifies the code, by doing the EOI on the XICS in the xics_get_irq routine after reading and acking the interrupt on the i8259.
